animals are usually served. For example the fish
is not filleted but gutted with bones and head
intact. Chinese believe that the bones are the
best part and the marrow is very nutritious.
Therefore, bones are consciously chopped to
splinters to relief the marrow. Bone broth is a
popular ingredient. Chinese people dont prefer
