About this dish
Hongeo-hoe (Korean: 홍어회) is a type of fermented fish dish from Korea's Jeolla province. Hongeo-hoe is made from skate and emits a very strong, characteristic ammonia-like odor that has been described as being "reminiscent of an outhouse". Fermented skate is also enjoyed in Iceland under the name kæst skata. It is typically eaten on Þorláksmessa, December 23.
