The event was arranged by Russian Fishery Company LLC (RFC) with the support of the Tourist Information Center of Primorsky region. During the event, Alexander Kazakevich, the chef of the Millionka restaurant, taught the athletes of the Dynamo Basketball Club, of which the RFC is a partner, how to cook New Year's dishes from pollock, which are easy to repeat at home. The set of the master class consisted of three dishes: bruschetta with baked pollock, salad with tangerine and smoked pollock, roll of simmered pollock with mashed potato.
The chef not only surprised with unusual ways of cooking and serving pollock but also told about the unique properties of the product: dietary, environmentally friendly, there are simply no analogues of pollock regarding the presence of iodine and a degree of its digestibility.
“Proper and healthy white fish should be in included the diet of every person. The unique properties of pollock as well as its taste qualities were previously underestimated by our consumers. Today, interest in this unique white fish is growing, largely due to the fact that high-quality pollock products from Russian fishermen have finally appeared on store shelves. This white fish is highly competitive with many other cod species, and at the same time it is available to everyone. We can safely say that pollock is benefit, taste and a healthy lifestyle.”
