Fish skeleton heat treatment

Hope you had yer tea a wee while ago.

Writing for a web site can be educational, but sometimes too much so.

Apparently the challenge for fish processors is to get as much flesh from a fish as is possible. The traditional method is to strip the fish to the skeleton and then use a high pressure water jet to extract the remaining flesh from the bones of the skeleton.

The problem with this process is that it is indiscriminate. All sorts of other organic material such as fish shite and fish brains can get squirted in along with the good stuff .... still with us ?

So .... what does this amazing invention, purchased from the inventor by an Aberdeen fishery, actually do ?

Well, apparently if the skeleton is heated, and the heated skeleton given a wee battering and then subjected to the traditional scooosh of water, the result is that the stuff that you don't want to eat (shit, brains etc.) stays on the bone and all you get left with is "good, honest fish meat".

Honest .................... fish fingers will never be the same again!!
