4. Rinse the fish from the salt and dry it with paper towels. Cut the onion into thin rings. Put the fish and onions in layers in a deep bowl: first, a layer of fish, then a layer of onions, and so on until you run out of food. Pour the cooled marinade over the fish so that it completely covers all the pieces.

5. Cover the container with cling film and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to marinate the fish well. The longer the fish is marinated (up to 48 hours), the more intense its flavor becomes. If desired, you can add a little mustard or garlic to the marinade to spice it up.
