Detailed Steps for Cooking Dried Salted Fish
Bought half a green fish, about 4 pounds.
Score the surface of the fish with three cuts, and cut through with the fourth cut.
Cut the fish into pieces.
Prepare the marinade: salt (15g of salt per pound of fish), dried chili flakes, and thirteen spices.
Pour the marinade over the fish pieces.
Add high-proof rice wine and soy sauce.
Spread the marinade evenly over the fish pieces.
Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in a cool place for 24 hours.
After marinating, hang the fish pieces on a hook in a ventilated place to air dry.
With dry weather, it only takes three days to dry. It can be used for frying, braising, and steaming, and it is very delicious.
