Korean Smoked Fish Ham



Look what I found while shopping at the Korean supermarket, H-Mart?  Smoked Fish Ham!!  I didn't know that fish can be made into ham, that was new to me.  A lady was doing the sample booth and offering me a sample of this fish ham and I really was impressed as it really tasted like ham.  Best of all, it was made of fish which made it slightly healthier?


It was on sales for $5 (usual price $8) and according to the lady it might increase to $10.  I certainly wouldn't pay $10 for it but since it was on sales and all of us loved it, I bought one along with some fish cakes.


I just sliced it into pieces and pan-fried it in a little oil as demo and served it with Udon noodle soup (not picture).  I put vegetable and mushroom into the noodle soup to make it more balance.

  3. Really looks like ham, even more so after pan-frying! I will try to check if the nearby Korean supermarket has this product. Which aisle/section did you get this from?

  4. Tigerfish, I got it at the demo/tasting booth. But should be in the freezer section.

  5. I just saw and bought this today at the H Mart on Long Island. Still only $5.99.

    There was nothing on the package that indicated it needed to be cooked so I just sliced a few thin pieces off the loaf and tasted it that way. It starts off tasting like a mild bologna or ham and ends up with a very mild fish taste

  6. I bought mine from H-mart here in Houston. We sampled and loved it. Our lady had it 3 ways! Cold, pan fried and I think with a bbq type sauce.
