The Devilfish in Phú Quý: Ugly but Surprisingly Delicious

Visiting several fresh seafood shops in Phú Quý, many people are curious when they see the rough-looking, fierce-looking fish called the Devilfish (also known as frogfish or hairy frogfish) being sold at a fairly high price, around 800,000 to 1,000,000 VND per kilogram, depending on the seller.

The fish’s meat is rich in nutrients and can be prepared as sashimi, grilled, steamed, or cooked into porridge according to preference. However, because this species contains toxins, it requires careful processing. This is also the reason why the price of Devilfish is not cheap.
