Chef Nicholas Gavin demonstrates how to locate and remove pin bones from a fillet of salmon without mangling the flesh. All you need is a pair of fish bone pliers, a chef’s knife, a damp towel, and a bowl of water. This technique works on other fish, too, including mackerel, snapper, blackfish, and sea bass. It’s as easy as a game of Operation. #salmon #debonesalmon #fishfillets #removingpinbones #kitchenskills
