A fish descaler

[zuludog]

I don't eat much fish, apart from plain poached white fish and the occasional tin of sardines in a salad, but I've decided to make an effort, so I've been watching a lot of videos on YouTube

One of them had a tip for a home made fish descaler

Get several crown corks, of the type used on bottled beer, and nail them to a piece of wood - Simple!

I haven't made one yet, but intend to do so asap

Or, you could ask your fishmonger to do it for nowt.

That's true, but I just fancy doing it all myself, even the messy bits

You really took me back. My son brought me a fish scaler when he came back from his first school trip abroad. I put it in the display cabinet.

Or you could use the back of a knife
