Tips

Cured meat and cured fish are basically the same to make, and you can also make cured chicken and duck! However, in some places, soy sauce is not used when cooking cured fish. After the cured fish is dried, soy sauce is added directly.It’s white, and I personally like the flavor of sauce, so I’ll stick to the old recipe!
