In the cleaning and dressing of fish, surface slime is removed and scales are loosened by submerging fish in a treatment bath of an aqueous solution of common apple cider vinegar, preferably in a concentration of approximately one percent (1%), for a treatment period of five to fifteen minutes, the fish slime being substantially removed and the fish scales being sufficiently loosened for removal by minimal mechanical action, leaving the fish skin and flesh intact and undamaged.

A process for loosening scales and removing slime from uneviscerated fish still having their scales and slime intact substantially without requiring mechanical action and without damaging skin and flesh underlying the scales, said process comprising the steps of preparing a treatment bath of an aqueous solution of an edible food acid having an acidic concentration of up to approximately five percent (5%) and, prior to eviscerating the fish, submerging the fish in the bath for a treatment period of no less than approximately five and no greater than approximately fifteen minutes, wherein said submerging substantially removes the fish slime and loosens the fish scales sufficiently to facilitate scale removal with a minimum of mechanical action while leaving the underlying fish skin and flesh substantially intact.
