Wash the onion peel, pour a glass of water, boil for 20 minutes, also cool. Filter both that and the other liquid.

Pour peppercorns and bay leaf into a container with fish, cover evenly with oil. Mix onion infusion and tea in one bowl, add salt, mix until completely dissolved. Pour this solution over the fish, put it in an oven heated to 150 degrees. Cook until the liquid boils, then reduce the temperature to 120 degrees.
