If you need to gut your fresh catch of the day, all you need is a pair of chopsticks. Warning : you will literally see a fish’s guts get yanked out of its mouth.
This gutting method, demonstrated in the video above from the Morigami YouTube channel , removes fish innards and gills without forcing you to cut it open or remove the head. Take a pair of throw-away chopsticks and insert them into the fish’s mouth past the gills, give the chopsticks a few hard twists, then slowly pull out the innards through the mouth.
