2. Remove the fish bones and tail, but you don't have to cut them. If you are afraid of being pricked, just cut them off. Then start cutting into pieces, or you can make soup with the whole fish. Just cut a few marks on the fish to make it easier for it to absorb the flavor.

3. Cut into cubes, not too thin, otherwise the fish will break easily when making soup.

4. Prepare two small pieces of tender tofu, cut them into cubes and set aside. Use tofu to make fish soup, the fish soup is white, thick and delicious.
