The Story Behind Raw Fish Salad

Raw fish preparation is one of the oldest culinary techniques in Palau. The citrus curing method transforms fresh reef fish into a tangy, refreshing dish perfect for the tropical climate.

Coconut cream enriches the dish while cucumber and tomato add freshness.

This dish connects Palauans to their ancient fishing traditions.
