虱目鱼混合汤 (Mixed Milkfish Soup)

The version from "第三代虱目魚丸".

 

Milkfish is very dominant in southern Taiwanese cuisine. It is not uncommon to find shops offering a variety of milkfish dishes.

 

One way to enjoy Milkfish, is to of course, offer it as a fishball soup. I am not a fan of fish balls, and so my mate and myself compromised on a mixed soup, including prawn balls, fish intestines, fish dumplings, fried fish skin and fish stomachs.

 

Honestly, I am not too sure if Milkfish fish balls are any more spectacular than fish balls made with other fishes (they all smell fishy to me) but I do love the fried fish skins (man - I love the fatty-aldehydic taste of it) and the tender fishes of fish stomach. The intestines, however, required a fair bit amount of chewing to chew through the rubbery sinewy and quite frankly, tasteless strands.
