Happy Family Fish Maw Review

Chinese New Year (CNY) is upon us and I've picked up some CNY specials. 

Happy Family Fish Maw

Nice whole pieces

Aye just product of Thailand. No mention of the type of fish

Taste Review

Taste - 6/10

The taste was surprisingly mild. The fish maw did not stink too much even though it stank horribly during prep. Aye you know you gotta prep this first right? Soak it in hot water for an hour or two to wash off the oil that was used to fry the fish maw... Well that oil stank but thankfully the fish maw did not stink and had a mild pretty pleasant fishy taste

Texture - 5/10

After soaking for 2 hours (1 hour on each side) the fish maw became quite soft and was close to coming apart. The texture is pretty ok. You can feel the springiness but it's only just slightly there. It's not exactly chewy either like those premium types.

Cost - 8/10

And this is why. Cos this is cheappppp like real cheap ass. It cost $10 for 3. You can't beat this price.

Tasting Notes

To be honest, the taste is so-so but to be fair, you do get a decent fish maw that you can toss into instant noodles, noodles, anything at all and not feel guilty about breaking the bank to enjoy a piece of luxurious fish maw.

TLDR version
Cheap guilt-free fish maw to toss into just about any soup based dish
