Information about dried gourami fish?

Dried gourami fish is a famous dried fish of the Southwest region for many generations. Dried gourami fish is present in simple family meals, or in expensive eateries and restaurants specializing in dried fish specialties.

This dish is most famous in the Dong Thap, An Giang and Ca Mau areas. Dried gourami fish in each place have a slightly different shape and their names are also very different. If you ever set foot in the Dong Thap, An Giang area, people here call dried gourami fish “dried choke”. For Ca Mau people, they call dried gourami fish dried gouramis.

Gourami fish has an oblong and flat shape, with many alternating stripes on its body that are very eye-catching and easy to recognize. This type of fish often lives in alum-contaminated water areas, a living environment that is not very convenient in terms of food and water. This has affected their foraging process. They often “struggle” quite hard to find food every day. But on the contrary, their meat is very firm and chewy, including dried or fresh fish.

The fish drying season starts from April and May every year. This is a beautiful time, high temperatures, lots of sunshine when drying fish, often giving extremely high quality finished products. Dried gourami fish is made entirely by hand, so the price of this type of fish is relatively high. And especially, they still retain all of their inherent nutritional value.
