Steamed small yellow croaker with pickles

Overview

This dish came about by chance. I was a little tired at the time and didn't want to make a too complicated dish. Thinking that the pickles themselves are salty, I marinated the pickles and small yellow croaker together without using other seasonings, and then steamed them in a basket. The result was unexpectedly delicious. In fact, pickles and fish are a good pairing. We used to cook crucian carp with pickles, but the pickles were often sold out. This steamed yellow croaker with pickled vegetables is salty, fresh and meaty. I have made it several times and used different pickles. In conclusion, the quality of pickles has a great influence on the finished dish. I usually use ready-to-eat pickles, which are seasoned and delicious in themselves. Use them to pickle small yellow croakers. The flavor of the pickles penetrates into the tender fish meat, which can be the icing on the cake. Of course, the quality of the small yellow croaker is definitely the key to success. No matter how delicious the pickles are, it will be useless if they encounter stale small yellow croaker. This dish is quite simple to make, come and make it with me!
