This afternoon, I went to buy stuff for the house and decided to stop by at the dry fish seller's shop. I noticed this and snapped it.
In this picture, you will see that this fish seller is holding a brush. She dipped the brush into an oil that I cannot tell of, whether palm oil, groundnut oil or coconut oil.
Did you notice the rotten fish (mold on the fish) in the place marked A? She used the oil to brush these rotten dry fishes in the big bowl. And once she brushes them off with oil, it will look as good as new.
Remember, the mould might be more extensive, going deeper inside the fish. If you doubt this, smell any dry fish you want to buy and see for yourself.
These fishes when you buy them, they will have a tell-tale musky smell of mold and will certainly lack freshness after some day especially if you buy in bulk. If you cook with them they will change the taste of your soup.
Please do not buy because it will be money wasted. The taste will be horrible besides the health risk. If you are not too sure of the fish please buy the fresh ones to avoid stories.
I am advising the women because they are the ones that go to the market and also prepare meal
