For the sauce, heat in a pot some soy sauce, suger, and a little water, Dip the mudskipper in this sauce and grill it again, Repeat this two or three times. Although the mudskipper does not seem like an appealing fish at first, if it is properly grilled, it is extremely grilled, it is extremely delicious. It is not greasy, like eel, and its taste will refresh you from the hot summer and delight your family. To prepare miso soup with mudskipper and slice it into three pieces.
