Sardine Prep Sea Forager Seafood

How to de-bone a sardine! Kirk Lombard of Sea Forager Seafood CSF walks you through how to quickly de-bone a sardine. Note: be sure to scale your sardines first. Scale your whole fish by holding it by the tail and then using the back of a knife or a spoon, scrape against the "grain" of the scales. I recommend laying out newspaper and doing it on top or scaling into a bag (place it in the sink for ease, but then toss the bag in the trash.) Rinse when you're done. Then commence to gutting!
