Grill the dotted gizzard shad/전어구이/烤海鯽仔

Konosirus punctatus, the Dotted gizzard shad, is a species of fish that occurs in the west Pacific Ocean along the Asian coast. .
In Japan the adult fish is called konoshiro while the younger are called kohada (or shinko). The young catch are pickled in vinegar, and subsequently used standalone or as a neta for sushi. The silvery skin with dotted marking is kept on when used as sushi or su-jime, although the epidermis (usukawa or "thin skin") may or may not be peeled away.

In Korea, we either grill or eat it in raw,etc. There is a legend in Korea..

• [속담] 전어 굽는 냄새에 나가던[나갔던] 며느리 다시 돌아온다 
  전어 굽는 냄새가 하도 고소해서 시집을 버리고 나가던 며느리가 마음을 돌려 돌아온다는 뜻으로, 전어가 대단히 맛이 좋음을 이르는 말.
  
  this means that in ancient Korea, when the daughter-in-law intended to escape from house or the daughter-in-law had left the family, when she smelt the smell while the mother-in-law was grilling the fish, she would return home without hesitating. This indicates that how delicious this fish is.....^-^
