    Step 1.

    How to fry pollock in breadcrumbs? Prepare everything you need for this. For frying, you can use a whole fish carcass, cutting it into pieces or take a ready-made fish fillet. I prefer the boneless fillet option. This is the main advantage.

How do I know if an egg is fresh? Break it into a separate container. First of all, there should be no unpleasant smell. The protein of fresh eggs will be transparent and clean. The yolk should not spread and will be shiny, convex, homogeneous.

To check whether the oil has warmed up well enough in the pan, you can do it in a simple way. Lower a wooden spatula into it. If bubbles have gathered around it, then you can start the frying process.

Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
