dried fish?
 

so I've seen these packages of various kinds of dried fish in the snack aisle at the asian market...and I finally broke down and bought a package of eel the other day.

the whole thing is full of bones...and it's almost not worth eating, my mouth keeps getting stabbed with little shards of bone...it's kinda painful.

so I wanted to see what it's normally used for. is it really a snack, to be eaten like beef jerky? or is it meant to go in a soup or something?

...
 

theres this dried fishy snack i like, its not bone or anything its kinda like strips of thingies and its good :D try those!:gkitty:

heh, that's what I thought this was...but it's boney ><

im sorry but thats pretty funny lol...oh have you ever tried dried squid before...its pretty popular where i live and its really good even if it sounds gross

never tried dried squid that just sounds gross. i don't know why when i think that sushi sounds really delicious. wait........ dried squid o.O?

hummm...dried squid does sound good. but at the same time...it's hard to eat when it hasn't been dried - rubber bands! drying it typically makes the meat tougher...I'm afraid that'll break my teeth.

heh, I'll still probably try it sometime.

thanks now i wanna try it

it doesnt look like squid its like shredded and its soft kinda but its really good! waaaaayy better than dried fish:D

ramen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!better than dried fish

yakisoba's better than ramen >.>

anyway...as a random experiment I guess I'll try to put the eel in my next batch of miso soup.
