Wuhan flavor dishes and fish fresh articles---catfish
wind| Wen
There are many rivers and lakes in Hubei, so Wuhan, where there is a great food, can choose a lot of freshwater fish.
People in Wuhan love to eat fish, and know how to eat fish, so fish chefs inside and outside the province are also willing to go to Wuhan to go to the docks. In Wuhan, with a population of tens of millions, there are millions of fish diners. The cook is happy and the owner is happy to open the shop.
Wuhan’s streets and alleys, large and small restaurants, eat as many fish as they eat hot dry noodles. But the problem is that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and they have been leading the way for N years. While the people in Wuhan have tasted all the schools across the country, they also stubbornly hide their hobbies and thoughts.
When people from other provinces mentioned the fish in Wuhan, they would always think of "Wuchang fish" for the first time. This is not a misunderstanding. Although the bream is famous for the phrase "only drink Changsha water and eat Wuchang fish", the fish that the citizens of Wuhan really like, their favorite fish, is really not it! Wuchang fish (thirteen half-spine bream) is common in Wuhan, but people in Wuhan just eat it with a normal heart. Restaurants mostly serve Wuchang fish to people from other provinces who come here.
So what fish do the locals like to eat? Talking about hospitality, Teacher Fang Fang talked about the "catfish" mentioned in Wuhan cuisine, which is the top brand in Wuhan. As a local species, the fish that migrate in the Yangtze River, we also call it "Jiang Tuan". Fishing in the Yangtze River is now banned. Generally, catfish are cultivated in Qingjiang Reservoir and Danjiangkou Reservoir, but this still does not affect the popularity of Jiang Tuan (catfish) by Wuhan people nourished by the Han River of the Yangtze River.
ranked the top three, there are also Caiyu, Gui (mandarin) fish, Dabai Diao also count. These fish that eat fish are all dishes served by Wuhan people to entertain distinguished guests.
The fish that Wuhan citizens eat at home are Xitou (about a pound of crucian carp), yellow latin, Qiaozubai (also diocese), and grass carp. New Year's marinated cured fish must use very large grass carp, or a special carp for cured fish (that is, the special snail herring in Jiangsu and Zhejiang).
These fish have affordable prices in Hubei and are available in every vegetable market. They are everywhere in supermarkets or vegetable markets in Wuhan. By the way, people in Wuhan only buy live fish. If the fish suffocates and doesn't move, the price will drop sharply and there will be few people who care about it.
And I’m in the north, such as in Weihai, where there are a lot of fish, the seafood I buy in the vegetable farm, including the seafood from the small boat that is picked up at the dock, is dying and panting, even most of the time I serve frozen Fish, chilled.
But not in Wuhan. Before buying the fish in Wuhan, they swam around in the fish box and fish pond at the fish stall. The freshwater fish that is eaten at home are only bought back when they are alive, even if the fish stall master helps people handle the fish quickly. (Scraping scales and cheeks to remove internal organs), the fish that the citizens put in the plastic bag are still "boarding" there. (Ban, is the meaning of "struggle" in Wuhan dialect. To be fate, to be crazy, is to toss hard.)
carp is not to be seen in Wuhan. Although Hubei produces a lot, Wuhan is different from many cities. Carp has always been a fish that can't make it to the table in Wuhan. The big hotels hardly bother to make carp, and the small restaurants do less. Because of its soily smell and heavy muddy gas, it is also a "fat". For hot cities, the ingredients that are regarded as fascinated are usually put into the cold palace. For example,
are also poultry, and the water is more popular than the land. People in Wuhan eat more ducks than chickens in summer, and only simmer chicken soup in winter. The same is a relative in the water, geese are not as popular as ducks, because geese are hairy and are prone to sores in the heat, while ducks are cold in nature. Most people in Wuhan like to eat laoya soup with water and water. Below
, let me write a few fish that people in Wuhan love to hear and often eat.
1. The characteristics of catfish
catfish satisfies the three preferences of Wuhan people for eating fish
1, the warrior fish that has gone through strong winds and waves
Wuhan people eat fish in order: the fish in the river, the fish in the big wind and waves, are better than those in the lake; rivers and lakes The wild in the pond is better than the cage culture; the fish that eats fish is better than the fish that eats grass. This is also related to the character of Wuhan people created by the great rivers and lakes. The
catfish used to cruise freely in the Yangtze River with a wide range of activities, so the meat is delicious. The migratory habit is due to the dam of the world's largest hydroelectric power station built in Yichang, which forced it to move to the reservoir. However, only large reservoirs like Qingjiang Reservoir and Danjiangkou Reservoir can be fed by flowing living water.
2, must be fresh fish
zThe best way to buy 0z catfish is not to stay overnight and eat it as a meal. Unlike grass carp, you can also pickle a glutinous fish and eat it slowly. Mandarin fish can smell bad. Catfish have to be killed and cooked now, and if it takes time, it will become sticky and taste bad.3. There are many ways to cook fish.
Guizhou sour soup fish that everyone is familiar with, in fact, the authentic fish is Jiang Tuan, what Hubei people call catfish. People in Wuhan eat catfish, which can be steamed, braised, or hot pot.
When I was concerned about my hometown during the epidemic, I wanted to eat catfish and was crazy. After the release of the seal, the mail route was just opened. I bought catfish online as soon as possible, because I have been walking on the road for three days. Although there are ice cube foam boxes, I can’t steam the catfish anymore. , I made two kinds of braised and sour soup hot pot, and I was very satisfied with the food, and I talked about homesickness.





(the author’s process of making fish) The main point of
braised catfish is:
put ginger in the pot like other fish, but the catfish can be cooked with a little garlic and a handful of red bean sauce.
This fish needs to be cut into large pieces, which will easily fall apart after being cooked, so don't turn it around. After frying for a while, you can shake the pan. The fish will gradually tighten as it becomes familiar. Teacher Fang Fang wrote that the fish is tight. I guess she may eat more but cooks less by herself, haha~~
After starting the pan, remember to hang some sugar before starting the pan to increase the flavor. When you are about to start the pan, drop two drops of salad oil to make the color better. Also, you must sprinkle the green onions on the plate, which is different from other fish. Both scallions and scallions are fine, but don't sew them at the same time.
Actually, I made this catfish with one fish and two for the first time in my life. I used to eat it in restaurants in Wuhan. Nowadays, people in a foreign land can develop cooking skills with nostalgia!
At that time, I consulted Brother Jun, who was good at making catfish in the besieged city of Wuhan. According to him, "It’s not the fresh catfish that was eating out." He said that the dead catfish that had been walking on the road for three days did not eat at all. the value of.
I admit that he was right, but I think at that time, there were so many neighbors in the siege (not counted in statistics) who died for us tragically, and they never had a chance to see the flowers bloom in 2020. Never eat all kinds of fish anymore.
For those of us who are alive, at least online shopping is available, and there is still a time for recovery in the end. I will always remember the sins of suffering and suffering in my hometown, so I received the "catfish who walked on the road for three days", I can expect, I can eat!
There is a song by Ye Qianwen in the movie "The Old Man of Mountains and Rivers". It was a period of time when I kept shopping online and could send out ingredients from my hometown. At that time, the whole area of Hubei was closed. I bought fish from Dongting Lake in Hunan and Jiangxi online. Rice noodles, hot dry noodles from Henan.
Now while I am writing this article, while putting "Treasure", I still cry when I hear it! I think that as long as people who are concerned about Wuhan, eat catfish, think of the epidemic, everyone will cry in the melody of this song.
