I've seen Lao Fan Gu mention using angelica root to remove fishy smells, but I've never used it before and can't find it in supermarkets. I saw it on Weee, so I bought it to try.

Angelica dahurica is a Chinese medicinal herb and also a spice for cooking meat. It can enhance the flavor of stewed chicken, braised pork, spare ribs, and beef. Don't add too much; a small piece is enough each time.
kamviola
This isn't Angelica dahurica; it has no taste at all. I don't know what kind of medicinal herb it is, yet it's so expensive.
