Introduction

About this Recipe

Originally, raw grass carp was used as one of its the main ingredients, but it was soon replaced with either wolf herring or mackerel. Presently, many restaurants today use a mix of other ingredients like salmon, abalone or even lobster for the dish.

The idea is to keep it colourful and ensure that you will be able to hold the ingredients with chopsticks and toss them high up when they are mixed together.
