Tasty Facts
– Argentina has an elongated body , covered with large scales, and flattened on the sides. The maximum length of the fish is 60 centimeters, and the mass is only about half a kilogram. Argentina reaches this size only by the age of 25. Unlike the body, the head of this species of fish is relatively small, while they have rather large eyes. Another distinctive feature is that the lower jaw protrudes slightly forward.
– The main habitat is the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, from Ireland to the northern Norwegian regions, temperate and northern waters of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. In Russia, this fish is caught in the east and southwest of the Barents Sea. Argentina prefers to live at great depths from 20 meters to a kilometer, near a sandy or muddy bottom, but for the catch, the best depth is 30-100 meters.
– For the silver color of the scales with a golden tint, Argentina is often called silverfish and golden smelt.
Argentine fillets are valued for their special juiciness and tenderness. Dried and fried Argentina is considered very tasty. However, the fish has a specific smell, reminiscent of fresh cucumbers. For this reason, some prefer to sprinkle the carcass with acetic acid or lemon juice in order to beat it off.
