Production process

Step 1: Fish selection: The weight of the fish is the best Control it at about 500 grams. The appearance of the fish on the fish plate is secondary. The key is that the heat of raw and cooked fish is easier to control.

Step 2: Fish shaping: After cleaning the fish, use a knife to cut off the backbone of the fish from the abdomen. This can prevent the fish from deforming due to shrinkage of the fish bones after the fish is steamed. Spread lard evenly on both sides of the fish body, and then dip it in a little white wine.

Step 3: Season the fish: mix some meat cubes with a little soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, Adding minced ginger and shiitake mushrooms into the belly of the fish can not only make the fish taste fresher, but also make the steamed fish appear plump.

Step 4: Plate the fish: Take a large piece of old ginger and the middle part of a green onion, cut it into long and even thin strands, spread it on the fish plate, put the fish on the plate and then sprinkle it on the fish. A little shredded green onion and ginger will make it beautiful and evenly flavored when mature.

Step 5: The heat of the fish: The heat is the key to steaming fish. Like many steamed dishes, the water in the pot must be boiled before putting the fish into the pot and steaming for 6 to 7 minutes. Turn off the heat.

Step 6: Steaming the fish: The so-called steaming means that after turning off the heat, don’t open the lid of the pot, use the residual heat in the pot to steam for another 5 to 8 minutes and then take it out of the pot. Add the prepared soy sauce, Pour vinegar and a little clear oil all over the fish body.

3. Cooking steamed fish is also a science. From selecting fish to ingredients, from plating to putting it in the pot, from heating to steaming, every step is paid attention to.
