Milkfish

About this dish

The milkfish is quite the bony fish, moreso than most fish out there, and it's often found around southern Taiwan in stores, markets, and restaurants. Fear not though! The milkfish farmers usually send the fish out to processing plants where they pick out the fish bones, making them more suitable for dishes like milkfish soup or porridge, thus. Milkfish dishes tend to use meat from the belly, which is very plump, soft, and light to the taste.
