The word "fish mouth" or "fish lip" (in Chinese character '魚唇') is a popular ingredient in a soup served in good Chinese restaurants. The dried form of "fish lips" can be bought in any Chinese food store, and in good Chinese medicine shops. It is in act the skin of big fish, especially to skin around the tail fin of shark. (In many restaurants it is added to bulk up the sharks' fin shoup).
soups made from fish lips are getting more popular as the popularity of sharks' fin soup decline.
