Silver Fish

My girlfriend brought some "Silver Fish" home recently and seemed excited about it. Absolutely no clue what they are/what they taste like/what to do with them. Can barely even find any stock photos of them on the googles as most searches revert to silverfish (earwigs).

Anyone have experience cooking them? Only thing I have to work with right now is that they are "really salty" and she said they usually cooked them in scrambled eggs.

Aren't silverfish pest? Like, similar to roaches?

...

There's a local dish here where silverfish is cooked in coconut milk.

Aren't those tiny eels or something?

Seems like whitebait to me. They eat it in Japan with grated daikon and soy sauce.

yeah its the name for earwigs in the US. apparently this is a different thing entirely/nothing like it

cool yeah this seems to be some variation of whitebait. that will probably make recipe searching easier.

they kinda look like it but i think they are just really young fish

You could make the Larry David (I'm guessing white fish and silver fish are similar):

>A sandwich that was created for Larry in an episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm". It has white fish, sabel, capers, onions, and cream cheese. Larry tried trading it with Ted Danson for his sandwich
