About Fish cracker

A fish cracker is a crisp, usually thin or puffed snack made with fish or fish paste combined with starch. Recipes and shapes vary, and the name does not specify a single fish species or a fixed fish-to-starch proportion.

It is typically sold ready to eat or in a dried form that is fried or otherwise cooked before eating. Finished crackers can be airy and brittle or denser and crunchy, with a savoury flavour that varies according to the fish and any seasonings used.
