I tried this paste, what I do is, I buy the cheapest fresh fish and use it to make the base stock. once the fish is cook where you can take off the flesh then you can deboned the fish and boil the soup with fish flesh for at least another hour. but i find it is nicer Lee Sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12186082792441555716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29502985.post-53945479641704119132009-11-05T00:34:37.310-08:002009-11-05T00:34:37.310-08:00HuongStar,

As for other stuff, ha! I know you use mixes too. I actually like canned sardines so it wasn't too fishy to me, but I'd never turn down a dinner invite from you. :)<BR/><BR/>Ning,<BR/>Have you used your $10 voucher yet?

It's just not the same! <BR/><BR/>I tried one of these instant package before but it didn't satisfy me because again, I am a perfectionist and a food snob. LOL!<BR/><BR/>Also, I thought canned sardines make the soup rather fishy.
