Metalhead is a Fish’s Name “Kanagashira”

Nothing has to do with a fan of heavy metal music. “Kana-” means metal and “Gashira” a head. So the fishes’ heads looked very hard and strong.

I bought them in a supermarket. They were local fishes so they were not expensive, even I would say they were cheap.

All three were placed in a pan, and then they were boiled. Actually it took time for me to remove their scales on the surface. Although I just threw most of the inside, I kept egg and boiled it together.

I usually use soy sauce for the taste when boiling a fish, but this time I used the salty soy-beans paste “Miso”.

They were on the dish. That means it’s ready to eat.
