I am a old fan of your incredible blog. I look for your posts first, every time I open my email. We cant get ready made fish paste in Dhaka. Could you tell me what fish I could use for making it and is it made from raw fresh fish or steamed/cooked fish? Would appreciate your reply. Hi Bee. I am a old fan of your incredible blog.

Will give a slightly sour flavor when you bite on the pickled dill. Personally I would prefer frying the bean curd sticks until crispy. Can steam the fish balls separately while laying the bean curd sticks in the dim sum plates and place the steamed fish balls on top after they are cooked. Love thinly cut fried bean curd sticks with the fried economy bee hoon and pickled green chillies. Will try making fish balls my way next time after I go shopping.

If none have it then try wet markets fish section early in the morning. If you still can't find them ask the fish sellers where you can get them. They may probably know cos they could be supplying fish regularly or every day to fish-ball or fish paste making customers. Worse come to the worst you will have to buy fresh fish and make them yourself. It's not that hard to make fish paste. Just clean all the fish and scrape off the skin. Using a tablespoon start scraping off the flesh from the fish bit by bit making sure you don't get any bones until all the fish are done. Best fish for this will be the thin long fish. Not sure exactly what the name is but I think it is sai tow mostly used to make fish balls. Good luck. Check every supermarket for the fish paste.

I'm usually not much of a fish ball person either, but when it comes to curry fish ball skewers.. *salivates!* And sorry this is probably off topic, but I just had to comment on your description of eating curry fish ball skewer! HAHA! That is totally what every one does! And especially the bit about getting the sauce on our shoes! XD!! Haha, I’ve been to that one!

(the photo of the container of fish emulsion was extremely helpful!). I have been in the US for 16 years and have only been back in Singapore twice and I had resigned myself to missing the taste of a good bowl of fish ball noodles. So, thanks so very much for your blog, and pictures that are fit to be drooled over.
