3. Have a large bowl of iced water to drop the fishballs into. And a smaller bowl of cold water to dip your hands into periodically, to stop the paste from sticking too much to your hands.
4. Form little balls with the paste, either with the traditional method or the usual way by rolling the between your hands. Drop the balls into the large bowl until you’re ready to cook them.
