| Does emart, homeplus, etc. sell fish without the scales in them? I know Koreans eat the fish with the scales in them so i was just curious. |

| Probably not. It's easy to scale them with a knife though. I buy fresh fish in an outdoor market place and they dress them, but don't remove the scales. Fresh fish is sliced thinly, the skin discarded, and eaten raw or randomly cut chunks are put in soup, bones and all. |

They will do it for you. I get them to gut the squid and mackerel I buy. I'm sure they would de-scale it if you knew what the Korean phrase was.
By scales you mean the skin right? That in ON the fish, not in them. |

Yes, they do. They tend to still have the bones in them tho. |

The scales are the hard clear plastic-like things on the skin. To remove them use a knife at 90 degrees and scrape.
An easier way is to leave the scales on, cut the fish across into 3/4" steaks and cook it. then just peel the skin off once cooked. easier to take the bones out than just frying the whole fish and picking them out in a cumbersome process. |
