Hubei famous dish--------------[Braised Wuchang fish]
Overview
I am a fish lover, so I don’t need meat. My family eats fish three or four times a week. Maybe it’s because I was born in Baiyangdian. People there like to eat fish. Wuchang fish is called bream in our place, but it is called bream or Wuchang fish here in Wuhan. In order to highlight the regional characteristics, it is called [Braised Wuchang fish]. This is still a famous dish in Hubei. Braised, steamed and braised in oil are the specialties in many hotels. We don’t go to restaurants, we cook it ourselves! When we cook fish, we have to pair it with cornmeal pancakes or steamed buns. It is a perfect match. It tastes delicious. The cornmeal pancakes are dipped in the soup and take all the deliciousness of the fish into your mouth. For this fish, the cornmeal steamed buns are specially made, but the noodles are very soft. After steaming, they become soft and floppy, which is not very beautiful. I use the method of hot noodles and rising noodles, which tastes sweet and has a soft texture!
