 Remark
 This is an excellent table fish. When cooked, the meat is white and soft with a pleasant taste and mild acidic flavor. The soup is colorless with a strange flavor. Fried meat is very white, soft and very tasty. Meat from the abdominal portion is especially tasty. This meat should be used for second course dishes, canning in oil, and for natural canned products.
