I super love danggit but giving those girls two pesos per kilo is just all kinds of wrong! considering how much money they make with the danggit and that processing costs (bamboo drying mats, salt for the rinsing and the sun) is practically zero. I totally agree with Maria Clara, that if this is one of the very few work options given to Filipinos, no wonder they also agree to be illegal migrants in nearby Asian countries, or apply for low jobs in shady overseas recruitment agencies.

In Balayan Batangas where I originated from they call it, “Kuyog”. Whenever my mom used to visit us while still in the states, she always brings us these dried fish! It is so crunchy and delicous even my kids loved it! I love to pair it with relish made of mini green mangoes, tomatoes, and green onion. Thumbs ups to those girls who make this specialty, I hope they compensate them more than enough for the skill.

This article has motivated me to raid the local Filipino food grocery, and lo and behold, it sells danggit. The owners are Visayan so that my have something to do with it. There is actually available quite a variety of different dried fish that I had never tried, and will work my way gradually through all of them.es. Previously I have only known 3 varieties of dried fish – tuyo(tamban and tunsuy), tinapa and daing na bangus, so this is a new frontier, thanks to this column.

While I truly enjoy danggit and lamayo, my satisfaction rating has gone down after learning how much those poor girls (child labor pa yan!)earn for skilled filleting. Sad times, dire straits!!
