Sarawakian Local Delights : Ikan Buntal



I saw these frozen ikan buntal at a supermarket in Miri. Would people be able to prepare them well. Everyone knows some parts of its body is poisonous. What if someone does not?

Shouldn't a warning sign be put up? It is more poisonous than cyanide.

Would any one not know?

A friend is very confident that he can clean the fish well and there is no harm in eating it.

In Japan, puffer fish or fugu is a delicacy and chefs with licence are allowed to prepare the dish.
