Whole Dry Suri Fish (Suri Shutki) – [আস্ত লইট্টা/সুরি শুটকি]

The Whole Dry Suri Fish (commonly known as Ribbon Fish Shutki or sometimes associated with the long, slender profile of Loitta) is a coastal delicacy prized for its intense, concentrated oceanic flavor. Naturally sun-dried on the shores of the Bay of Bengal, this fish undergoes a traditional dehydration process that preserves its nutrients while developing a deep, savory umami profile.

Pro Tip: Before cooking, always soak the dry fish in warm water for 15–20 minutes and wash thoroughly to remove any surface salt or sand.

Handling & Storage

• Preparation: Cut off the head and tail, then chop the body into 2-inch pieces before soaking.

• Storage: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. For maximum freshness, keep it in the refrigerator or freezer to prevent the natural oils from turning rancid.

• Odor Control: To minimize the smell in your kitchen, sauté the dry fish with a little turmeric before adding other ingredients.
