have a question do we use fussiler to make Fish Ball? [/b]
my father was just telling me about it the other day ....
skin the fish, lay it on one side, and continuously scrape at the
flesh with a metal spoon ..... roll up the scrapped up flesh into a
ball, dump into a bowl of iced salt water and voila ! ... freshly
made fish balls .....
you can of course, try that with other fish, but apparently, the
consistency of the flesh must be just right, pelagic fishes works
better than those with more fibrous flesh, like cod for example
....
go try that out ... I'm going to make some lake whitefish fishballs
this weekend ....
