 <\/p>\n

Landed fish in Malawi are marketed in variety of forms including fresh, iced, frozen, smoked, sun-dried or para-boiled before drying. While fresh fish is more popular in villages and towns near the lakes and rivers, most remote rural areas are supplied with processed fish.<\/p>\n

The attached picture has been photographed on Chilambula beach (Salima district) and shows the para-boiling (paraboiling) method of fish processing. In this method, the fish is partially sun-dried first after that fish is dipped in boiled in water for a few minutes (approximately 2-3 minutes) using a small basket. Afterwards, fish is put on the rack to be sun-dried.<\/p>\n

The para-boiling is a preferred processing method for small fish especially Usipa, \u201cEngraulicypris sardella<\/em>\u201d whereas women are more involved in this type of processing. It is estimated that about 20% of usipa catch is sold to processors for para-boiling whether sold directly to consumers or traded through middlemen to wholesalers and retailers.\u00a0Usipa\u00a0is a “small sardine-like fish that are usually processed through either sun-drying or through para-boiling.<\/p>\n
