Frequently Asked Questions

Does dry fish need to be soaked before cooking?

A quick rinse and soak in warm water for 5-10 minutes softens it and cuts down on excess salt before cooking.

How should I store it at home?

Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dry place — or refrigerate for extended freshness and to keep the smell contained.

Is any preservative used in drying?

No — sun-dried naturally with salt only, no chemical preservatives added.
