Snack vendors in Taiwan serve seafoods parboiled in water or else grilled or steamed, and accompanied by small dishes of condiments such as soya sauce, raw garlic paste and vinegar to use as dips; this seems no different from the way Oriental weatherfish were slowly over charcoal, they were eaten with garlic and vinegar dips.
夜市、小吃攤將海鮮以滾水燙過或烤熟、蒸熟，另以小碟裝醬油、蒜泥、醋等佐料蘸著吃，看來也只是重複宋人吃泥鰍：以鐵架置炭火上，泥鰍微火烤熟，沾蒜、醋食用。
