Danggit

Tuyo, Tuyô, Bilad (Filipino)

fish

Danggit refers to dried fish (sun-dried or sun-baked) from the Philippines. Fish prepared as daing are usually split open (though they may be left whole), gutted, salted liberally, and then sun and air-dried. There are also "boneless" variants which fillets the fish before the drying process. It was originally a preservation technique, as salt inhibits the growth of bacteria, allowing fish to be stored for long periods of time.
