(4a)
Specimen N: Smoked Sadinella
Specimen F: Knife
Specimen Q: Fermented Catfish

(4bi)
Specimen N- Smoking
Specimen P- salting and drying
Specimen Q- Fermentation

(4ci)
Specimen N – Smoking:
Smoking involves exposing fish to smoke from burning wood or other materials. The heat and smoke dry out the fish, reducing moisture content and killing bacteria, thereby preserving it. This method also adds a smoky flavor and can extend the shelf life of the fish.

(4cii)
Specimen P – Salting and Drying:
In this method, fish are first rubbed or soaked in salt, which draws out moisture and inhibits microbial growth. After salting, the fish are sun-dried or air-dried to further reduce moisture content. This dual method effectively preserves the fish and prevents spoilage.

(4ciii)
Specimen Q – Fermentation:
Fermentation involves allowing fish to undergo controlled microbial activity under anaerobic conditions. The process breaks down proteins and produces acids and other compounds that preserve the fish. It often results in a soft texture and strong flavor, commonly used in traditional preparations.
