I buy silver biddies, gut, butterfly and/or de-bone, brine for 2 days and fry it for breakfast like dried danggit. Fishmongers here gut only big expensive fish, small ones like silver biddies are not worth the trouble. Usually, they don’t do a good job of it and burst the gallbladder and make the fish bitter with bile. I often have to clean it again so I’d rather do it myself. They also throw out the roe. The only downside to cleaning my own fish is wearing the scales afterwards.

Home Ec prepared us for fish-gutting, stench, spines and all.. I feel like a surgeon doing this. No eeww at all.

Deep fried fresh danggit is one of my favorites but cleaning this fish is a pain. The stench of danggit entrails is horrible and their spines are razor sharp.

I don’t like gutting fish, either. The first time I had to was in Biology class, after dissection.
Eeeewww indeed!
