Cuttlefish are not born this way. They are completely different from their parents when they are born. Their eyes grow symmetrically on both sides of their heads and live in the upper and middle layers of seawater. When they are about half an inch long, their bodies begin to change. One eye moves to the other side of the head, and the dorsal fin and anal fin also grow forward to the head, and their bodies are flat and twisted. After about one hundred days, they become their parents and live on the bottom of the sea.

No matter whether it is small or large, it is not necessary to skin it.

The fish is eaten after the scales are removed, which is usually used for steaming or braising. The taste of the fish is very delicate and the meat quality is very delicious. If the scales are not removed, the taste will be seriously affected. At the same time, the nutritional content of this fish is also very high, and there are rich protein and minerals to be absorbed. When removing the scales, it is best to scald the fish skin with boiling water first, then put some white vinegar and salt, and scrape it off with the back of a kitchen knife.
