edwardandtubs Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I see the street vendors selling this a lot but I've never tried it. How is one supposed to eat it? The ash looks a bit lethal. Do you scrape it off before eating it or what? And what fish is it? White tilapia I assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJIC Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 I guess you mean the heavy coating of Salt,but either way if it is Ash,as you say,there is no problem peeling off the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShopBoy Posted February 7, 2012 Share Posted February 7, 2012 Ash ? It's probaly salt. Grill fish with salt. I usually scrape it off with the skin before i eat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardandtubs Posted February 7, 2012 Author Share Posted February 7, 2012 That's the one. It's a hell of a lot of salt if that's what it is. I'll try peeling off the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
besth Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 If you peel off the skin it does not taste salty at all. The salt crust keeps the moisture of the fish flesh, but the saltiness does not get to it through the skin. Worth trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardandtubs Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 You're right. Very easy to peel off and very succulent underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dap Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 That's the one. It's a hell of a lot of salt if that's what it is. I'll try peeling off the skin. Absolutely peel back the salted skin. The meat is very moist and tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
