Cilinder shaped fish

Swa_267291

Hello,

Does anyone have any idea how to shape a cillinder made of fish meat?

I think it’s made with transglutaminase but I’m not sure.

If so, how is it cut? And how do you roll it and in what?

Thanks

so there are lots of online guides to making 'roulades' including on chefsteps. But yes, meat glue, wrap tightly with saran wrap, let it 'glue' either slow and cold (stronger) or short and hot (while sous vide-ing).

Here's a link! https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/fish-roulade

Pretty easy to do using the CS's instructions.

This just looks like the wrapped a rectangle piece of salmon tight in plastic wrap in a cylinder and cooked it sous vide. It will hold its shape once cooked.

I just wanted to write it. I think you're right.

I’ve experimented with shaping fish meat before, and yes, transglutaminase (often called "meat glue") is a great way to bind it together. You can use it to form a cylinder, but the key is to make sure the fish is properly chilled before you shape it to help it hold together. After mixing the fish with the transglutaminase, you can roll it tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper to get that cylinder shape. Once it’s set in the fridge, you can slice it into even portions. For a fun twist, I’ve used Zatarain's fish fry recipe to coat the outside—gives it a crispy, flavorful finish. It’s such a delicious combo! The fish fry adds just the right amount of seasoning, and it cooks up beautifully.
