Steamed Golden Pomfret

Steamed Golden Pomfret

Overview

The steamed golden pomfret I cooked for my mother-in-law’s banquet on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year was very popular. A few days ago, my son admired it and wanted to eat it, so he bought one in the supermarket when he came home yesterday. This morning I took it out of the refrigerator, cleaned it and covered it up. This time I will steam it, because steaming can highlight the deliciousness of the fish without losing nutrients, and it is quick and easy to make. It can be done easily in ten minutes. Golden pomfret has fewer spines, only large thorns, and not a single small thorn in the body. It is safe for children and the elderly to eat, and there is no need to worry about fish bones getting stuck in the throat. Golden pomfret is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and has the effect of lowering cholesterol. It is a good fish food for people with high blood fat and high cholesterol. Golden pomfret is rich in trace elements selenium and magnesium, which has a preventive effect on cardiovascular diseases such as coronary arteriosclerosis, and can delay the aging of the body. Therefore, it is recommended that sisters make more of it to feed their families.
