Paper-thin fish slices are marinated with a savory blend of salt, sugar, and spices, then slowly dehydrated at low temperature until completely crisp. The result is crunchy, intensely flavored fish chips perfect as a snack or topping. This method works especially well with firm fish varieties like cod or tilapia.
