If a famous dish with the worst taste is nominated, the West Lake vinegar fish may be on the list.

However, the West Lake vinegar fish may become delicious. Recently, in view of the constant complaints of "not delicious", the building outside the famous store in hangzhou dishes decided to settle the score by "changing fish". Louwailou changed the traditional West Lake grass carp with strong earthy smell and loose meat into Quzhou Kaihua fresh water fish with clean growth environment and only natural grass, thus improving the taste.

However, can only changing fish restore the reputation of vinegar fish in West Lake, especially in Hangzhou, which is known as the "gourmet desert"?

don't worry, besides changing fish, the officials are not idle. In March this year, the Hangzhou Municipal Bureau of Commerce issued the "Ten Actions to Promote the High-quality Development of hangzhou dishes (Draft for Comment)", with a maximum bonus of 1 million yuan to encourage organizations to formulate the standards of hangzhou dishes cuisine, so as to enhance the brand of hangzhou dishes.

hangzhou dishes, is it time to turn over?

How bad is West Lake vinegar fish, a famous dish in Zhejiang?

hangzhou dishes's turnaround should start with the food cult West Lake vinegar fish.

how can the West Lake vinegar fish taste bad?

For a simple example, some netizens said that in last year's phenomenal TV series "Dream of China", one of the secrets of opening a restaurant from Hangzhou to Zhao Paner in Kaifeng was that they didn't think of vinegar fish in the West Lake.

the imaginary vinegar fish in the West Lake: a mouthful of vinegar fish, lips and teeth lingering in the misty rain of the West Lake. Since the Northern Song Dynasty, when the West Lake vinegar fish was born, many romantic affairs, such as chivalry, tenderness and kindness, have been mixed into this classic dish.

In reality, the West Lake vinegar fish: if swallowed in one gulp, it's like a burnt lake mud. After two bites, it seems that all the fish souls in the West Lake are tumbling in my esophagus. After three bites, if a fish dies because of this dish, it is really not worth it.

No, under the hot search topic # West Lake Vinegar Fish for Fish # in Weibo, many netizens said that the problem of West Lake Vinegar Fish may not only be the fish, but also the use of sauce and cooking methods are worrying.

What's more, it's ridiculous that the West Lake vinegar fish may not be able to turn over in this life, but it's better to be famous for its "unpalatable", which is also a regional feature.

Of course, newcomers are not in such a hurry to ban the West Lake vinegar fish. Since it has won the title of the first in hangzhou dishes, and it is on sale from small shops in the streets to famous big stores on the list, it can't be the fault of the West Lake vinegar fish. It must be the wrong way to taste it.

if it doesn't taste good the first time, you should eat it several times. The most important thing is to jump out of one's own taste and aesthetic preference. A dish with a long history must be tasted from the perspective of compassion.

boy, hold down your "petty spirit" and taste it with a world-wide view of history, and the result is still: unpalatable.

That's not what people said in the introduction of West Lake vinegar fish. It's a seafood dish. The delicacy of grass carp combined with the simple seasoning of sweet and sour juice can make it taste simple and complicated, just like crab's flavor, even without a drop of oil and chicken essence monosodium glutamate.

As a result, the crab felt unlucky after hearing the pungent acid, then the sticky sweetness, and finally the earthy smell that both sweet and sour could not be sealed.

people's joys and sorrows are not connected, just like people's understanding of crab flavor is thousands of miles away, but at this moment, I suddenly understand the grievances of this fish.

As a fish with dreams, who doesn't want to be a beloved steamed fish, pickled fish, boiled fish and grilled fish in Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish or Wanzhou? It's just that the hemp rope is broken in detail, and the bad luck is only for bad karma fish.

It used to be glamorous, but now it is much disliked.

The West Lake vinegar fish originated in the Song Dynasty, and it is said that it was originally called "uncle and sister handed down treasures". According to legend, at that time, there were a pair of Song brothers who fished in the West Lake for a living. My brother was killed by a bully, but my uncle and sister-in-law failed to get justice. In the end, Song Sister-in-law let Song Di escape to avoid being retaliated by bullies.

Before leaving, my sister-in-law made a West Lake vinegar fish for my brother. It was sweet to remember the sweetness of my brother's life when he was alive, and sour to remember his sadness when he died.

after several years, I have been reminiscing about my brother's success in the West Lake vinegar fish and returned to Hangzhou to avenge his brother's death.

there are always some reasons why a dish can be as good as a meal, for example, it's delicious and unforgettable, or it's hard to eat.

according to legend, this dish has always been delicious.

For example, in the 36 hangzhou dishes Awards in 1956, the West Lake vinegar fish ranked first. In the state banquet, West Lake vinegar fish was once an important dish.

Food experts, leaders and foreign guests will never insist that it is delicious without conscience. So, how did the West Lake vinegar fish taste bad?

According to Wu Shunchu, a non-genetic inheritor in Hangzhou, a famous chef in hangzhou dishes and a culinary master in China, the vinegar fish in West Lake looks simple, but it is extremely challenging to make it delicious.

For example, fish must choose a boy grass carp with a weight of about 2 kg to be delicious. Before killing fish, it is necessary to starve in running water for two days to remove the earthy smell; When you fish, you must tighten the meat by fire, and you can't cook it for a long time. When thickening, only sweet and sour soy sauce, Jiang Mo and starch are used, and the fresh and sweet taste depends on the proportion.

However, the West Lake vinegar fish in the store now only says that this boy fish is not common. After all, the bigger the fish, the more money it makes. Hunger is even rarer. Fish are often lined up and rushed to the pot, and the preparation steps are not detailed.

More importantly, when people go to Hangzhou to eat southern dishes, it is important to experience the lightness and elegance of the dishes, which is just like stewed goose-colored West Lake vinegar fish in the northern pot. Look at other famous dishes of Hangbang, such as clear soup fish balls decorated with pea sprouts, mushrooms, bamboo shoots and ham, shredded chicken with golden chrysanthemums, and white shrimps with green Longjing, all of which are poetic. At this level, it is not wrong that the West Lake vinegar fish is rejected.

Is the West Lake vinegar fish going to be completely banned?

Actually, there is a way to cook the vinegar fish in the West Lake, that is, to make it neither the West Lake nor the vinegar fish. For example, in addition to changing grass carp to civilized fresh water fish in the famous building outside the building, many restaurants have switched to mandarin fish or perch. As long as you don't touch the grass carp in the West Lake, the dishes will be less earthy. Many restaurants, including Green Tea Restaurant and New Bailudeng, also try to fry the West Lake vinegar fish instead of water, which can also greatly improve the taste.

Fried West Lake Vinegar Fish

In short, when the West Lake Vinegar Fish is less and less like the authentic West Lake Vinegar Fish, it may regain the favor of diners.

Food traitors are more than West Lake Vinegar Fish

Of course, when we criticize West Lake Vinegar Fish, we are also angry with Hangzhou, a city that has nurtured West Lake Vinegar Fish.

according to a study on Weibo by DT finance in 2121, Hangzhou ranks second among the top ten "gourmet deserts" in China. West Lake vinegar fish tastes bad, but it seems particularly easy to understand in the context of Hangzhou.

The "unpalatable" food in Hangzhou is controversial because people complain about the local food. They came all the way to Hangzhou to taste the local characteristics, and as a result, they ate either Piarchuan, a snack, or Dongpo meat, a "rotten street" dish. This is just like when people spit out that Beijing is a "gourmet desert", the examples cited are often fried liver with bean sauce and braised fire.

Hangzhou's "bad taste" may also be reflected in the price of restaurants. Cheap restaurants such as green tea, grandma's house and New White Deer can enjoy a unified taste all over the country, so they always feel unremarkable. If you want to eat real delicious food, you have to be willing to spend money. If you can eat delicious food for hundreds of dollars per capita, then Hangzhou can hardly be called "the black land of delicious food".

Therefore, from the official to the people, they have joined the campaign to clear hangzhou dishes's name. However, it's not easy to turn over. At least we must beat these regulars on the Hangzhou food list: KFC, McDonald's and Bobby Steamed Bread.
