It is usually steamed with bighead carp head, chopped pepper as the main ingredients, and supplemented with soy sauce, ginger, onion, garlic and other auxiliary ingredients. The dishes are bright red in color, rich in flavor and tender in texture. Fat but not greasy, soft and waxy, fresh and spicy. The chopped chili peppers and pickled chili peppers I used today are not only beautiful in color but also delicious in taste. You can eat two bowls of rice soaked in soup! Marinating in beer not only removes the fishy smell but also makes the fish meat smoother and more tender.
