What is Carp?
Carp is a freshwater fish found in rivers and lakes worldwide, known for its firm texture and mild flavour. A staple in many cuisines, carp is highly versatile, making it ideal for grilling, frying, or baking. Rich in protein and a source of minerals such as selenium, which contributes to the normal function of the immune system, carp is a nutritious and flavourful option.
What Does Carp Taste Like?
Carp offers a mild, sometimes slightly sweet flavour with earthy undertones that reflect its freshwater origins. The texture is firm yet tender, making it ideal for various cooking methods.

How to Prepare Carp
Start by cleaning the carp thoroughly, removing scales, and gutting the fish. To reduce any earthy notes, rinse the fillets in cold water or soak them briefly in milk or vinegar. Trim away any darker flesh for a milder flavour.
How to Cook Carp
Carp can be pan-fried, baked, or steamed to perfection. For crispy skin, season and sear it in a hot pan. Baking allows the fish to absorb aromatic herbs and spices while steaming preserves its delicate texture. Carp is also ideal for soups and stews, offering a hearty and flavourful addition.
