Method8 steps

  1. Step 1: Check the 2 lb salmon head supply is cleaned with gills removed. Cut or have it cut into pieces that fit the cooking pot; retain the edible cheeks and collar flesh. Keep the prepared fish cold while you begin cooking.

  2. Step 2: Heat enough cooking oil to coat the base of a cooking pot. Sauté the chopped onion (1), 3 garlic cloves and 2 sliced thumb-size ginger pieces until the onion softens and the aromatics smell fragrant.

  3. Step 3: Add the prepared salmon head to the softened aromatics. Pour in enough water to cover the fish for a soup, and bring it to a boil.
