Presents the FAO-Thiaroye (FTT) fish smoking technique and provides recommendations to unleash its potential. The publication makes the case for an evidence-based policy backbone to safeguard the sustainable, eco-friendly supply of safe smoked (and dried) fishery products to support food security, particularly in the developing world.
