The process of drying salted fish during the rainy season takes about one week longer than during the dry season, which only takes an average of 1-3 days. The technique of drying salted fish using the sun's heat is a common technique where anchovies are arranged at the top of a rack in a hanging position and then placed outdoors or under the sun for 2 consecutive days. After that, the salted fish can simply be placed in a container at room temperature, stored in a kitchen cupboard or kitchen corner. Make sure the place to store is not damp so that the salted fish is not susceptible to damage. Precisely better if the place is cool and easily exposed to sunlight.
