Solution

Fermentation is a preservation method that involves the conversion of sugars and other carbohydrates into alcohol or organic acids by microorganisms like bacteria, yeasts, or molds. Fermentation can significantly alter the taste and odor of the fish due to the metabolic activities of these microorganisms. It often results in distinct, tangy flavors and aromas in the fermented fish.
