Which of the following is true about a drawn fish?

A drawn fish refers to a preparation method where the fish has had its internal organs, or viscera, removed while leaving the head and skin intact. This technique is commonly used in fish preparation to ensure freshness and safety for cooking or preservation. It allows for the fish to be processed while still being recognizable and can be prepared in various cuisines.

The other statements do not accurately describe the characteristic of a drawn fish. For instance, saying that it has its head removed is incorrect, as a drawn fish typically retains its head. The assertion that it is larger in size is not a defining characteristic of drawn fish, as the drawing process applies to fish of various sizes. Lastly, while some drawn fish may be smoked as a cooking technique, it is not a requirement of this preparation method. The primary aspect of a drawn fish is the removal of the viscera.
