At the Jiushui Farmers' Market in Qingdao, there are more than a dozen such "ugly fish" on the stall owner Ms. Sun.

Needless to say, although this fish looks very ugly, it tastes really delicious. The flesh is very tender, and there are no thorns, the whole body is crispy, rotten when chewed, and there is no need to spit it out.
