Beer, wine and even bottled orange juice faintly smell fishy. The reason is ...
Surely we have never thought that fish is an ingredient in our favorite drink - beer and wine. And this truth will surely surprise you.
Beer is a beverage derived from plants, extracted after fermentation. So these products are suitable for many subjects including vegetarians.
However, for drinks to be rich and flavorful, some brewers have used special additives to filter beer and wine.
The composition of this compound includes moss, gelatin and mica - extracts from fish bubbles.
It seems unbelievable but Roman people have used additives that contain "fish bubbles" to distill beer from the 18th century.
At that time, mica was taken from sturgeon balloons - a common fish in many rivers around the main brewing cities.
There was a time when cow's blood was used as a wine filter. Due to concerns about mad cow disease at that time, the European Union has banned the use of cow blood to avoid spreading the disease.
Today, catfish bubbles are used to make beer and alcohol additives.
Since then, people only use fish bubbles to make additives. This bubble is taken from catfish and other catfish.
One interesting thing is that the effect of additives depends mainly on the quality and size of the fish bubble.
Therefore, alcohol producers often buy fish bubbles in tropical and subtropical regions. These are the places with the best quality fish
Before bottling the product, the additive will be put into beer barrels and wine to eliminate the pungent odor of barley. At the same time, the precipitate blocks are formed and fall to the bottom of the barrel. People will remove the precipitate blocks and distill the final product into a new one.
The fermenter recognizes that, thanks to that special additive, their products look much more attractive and attractive.
Another popular drink containing fish ingredients is bottled orange juice. This orange juice is rich in omega3 acid - a bright eye nutrient found in anchovies, sardines and tilapia. With their unique idea, producers want consumers instead of eating fish to absorb nutrients, they can drink orange juice.
If you are allergic to fish or a vegetarian, you need to be careful before using these drinks.
