The swim bladder, gas bladder, fish maw, or air bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that contributes to the ability of many bony fish (but not cartilaginous fish[1]) to control their buoyancy, and thus to stay at their current water depth without having to waste energy in swimming.[2] Also, the dorsal position of the swim bladder means the center of mass is below the center of volume, allowing it to act as a stabilizing agent. Additionally, the swim bladder functions as a resonating chamber, to produce or receive sound.

An introduction to the characteristics of fish maw

Fish maw generally comes from bigger fish, particularly croakers or sturgeons. Perhaps unexpected considering its status as a delicacy, is that it has an extremely mild to sometimes even flavorless taste. Yet the texture, health considerations, and traditional prestige lead to it being extremely prized.

While some will describe fish maw as almost flavorless, there are intricacies that more experienced diners will notice — plus flavor will vary depending on the quality of the maw and other factors. For example, higher quality fish maw will contain more collagen, making it more substantial, with a thicker, stronger body that holds up better to cooking. Lower quality fish maw, on the other hand, will get gelatinous and lose its substance quicker.

This also depends on the sex of the fish; male fish maw are hardier than female ones, allowing them to be cooked longer without losing their structure. For this reason, one of the characteristics that makes a fish maw more desirable is if it comes from a male.

A quick tangent on fish maw’s collagen and its importance in our health

Now, while a lot of the hype around collagen-based health products is mostly just that, it is true that collagen is “the most abundant protein in the body” per the Harvard School of Public Health. Without collagen, we don’t exist!

Furthermore, the commonly-accepted science is that topically-applied collagen (in creams and serums, for example) doesn’t really do anything, since collagen molecules are too big to actually be absorbed that way. Hence the need for collagen through dietary means.

Because of the overuse of collagen as a buzzword in skincare products, much of the public associates it mostly with skin health, but it’s a crucial building block for all the body’s connective tissue and musculoskeletal system. That means, alongside skin: Ligaments and tendons, muscles, bones, cartilage… all things you need for your body to work right.

Our bodies naturally produce collagen, but that production drops as we get older. Intuitively, though, since collagen is a key component of animal connective tissue, foods containing these ingredients can help compensate. (Although, because many high-collagen foods aren’t particularly healthy in large quantities — this will be clear below — you can also help your body produce collagen by including foods in your diet that are otherwise high in amino acids.)

Well-known collagen sources include stews and barbecue methods made of tougher cuts of meat — which need to be cooked low and slow for that very reason, to break down said connective tissue — and broths and stocks, especially homemade ones, whose collagen content you’ll especially notice when they cool and subsequently get that gelatinous, jelly-like texture. And, of course, fish maw.

It is more popular among the younger range of consumers as people nowadays are rather health conscious hence, preferring it to be baked and not fried.
