Snapper Skinless
Skinless cut is the main part of fish meat which is located above the spine. This method is cutting a torpedo-shaped fish that is made into four parts and separates the meat and spines of the fish and removes the skin. Snapper skin must be removed because this fish skin is a bit wet and very dirty if it is baked.
