Lamayo is a boneless stonefish or danggit, marinated in a spicy vinegar-garlic mix and packed in polyethylene bags. Sold either chilled or frozen, it is often featured as deep-fried as part of a breakfast fare.


Lately, the Food Processing Division of the DOST-Industrial Technology Development Institute (ITDI) generated a technology on the practical improvement of products and processes of fish drying to develop a more shelf-stable type of lamayo.

                    [Summary] => Iodized unrefined salt (coarse solar salt or raw salt), when properly packed and stored, can retain the prescribed iodine level for consumers for more than a year.


This was found in iodine retention studies on locally produced solar salt conducted by the Department of Science and Technology-Industrial Technology Development Institute (DOST-ITDI).


In a study of unrefined salt produced locally, researchers of the ITDI’s Food Processing Division noted that most salt producers could not meet the standard specifications for salt iodization.
