Cooking fish without oil - home made west lake vinegar fish
Introduction:
"Northerners traditionally eat less fish. First, they are used to eating garlic and chili, but they are not used to the delicious fish. Second, it is really difficult for many people in Western Shaanxi to make fish. If you can't do it, you'll be lazy to do it, and if you're lazy to do it, you won't eat it. In a word, most Western Shaanxi people don't do much to eat fish except braised fish. My family is no exception, eat less fish, out of a variety of "Shaoyu" also occasionally steamed, or pickled fish. I really can't do anything else. However, a few years ago, dad said at home that the west lake vinegar fish he ate in a Hangzhou restaurant was "very beautiful.". Mother asked, "what is a west lake vinegar fish?"? I've just heard about it, but I haven't eaten it. Looking at my mother's salivation, I decided to support myself at home. So I began to look up the information. I found that the method of "west lake vinegar fish" is actually very simple. It doesn't need oil. It's just suitable for mom. I heard for the first time that it doesn't need oil to make fish. So I bought grass carp and made a whole "west lake vinegar fish" according to the practice. As a result, my father tasted it: it's not the taste. Dizzy, why not? I come step by step, right? "Fishy fish is not delicious," mom said. So I began to sum up, experiment, I used to do a few times, is more and more delicious, Dad tasted two words: "authentic.". Ha ha, great. Although I haven't eaten the authentic "west lake vinegar fish", after my groping and getting my parents' approval, I think it's necessary to share some of my experience with you.

Note: Tips: 1, if the fish can be raised for two days, in the end, not according to my way to deal with, also not fishy. 2.

The ratio of sugar to vinegar is 1:1, which is sweet and sour. 5. The cooking time should be controlled well, about three minutes before and after cooking. Aging also affects the taste. 6.
