Dough Fish Figurines

　　Dough Fish Figurines

　　Dough Fish Figurines are made by shaping flour into fish forms, steaming them in a steamer basket, cooling the steamed pieces, and then coloring and painting them with details such as lines and eyes. The resulting artfully treated dough fish are naturally bright in color and strikingly lifelike.

　　With additional processing through low-heat drying, the dough fish can be collected as handicrafts. These crafted dough fish can be given as gifts to family and friends, taken along as dry rations for trips, or used in various other ways. Despite their different uses, they have become a type of craftwork.
