As a big freshwater fish breeding province-Hubei, let alone whether fish scales can be eaten, even fish intestines, fish livers and fish oil can be eaten. Our family likes to eat small crucian carp, bream, perch and yellow catfish every day. The fish belly with less thorns and tender meat is basically my son's, and my husband doesn't taste the fish head and tail. He said he was tired of eating fish since he was a child. Generally, he only eats a small amount of fish belly or fish back. I basically eat fish head and fish tail, but there is something almost transparent under the fish belly near the fin. I found that many people like this meat. Most of them think it has no thorns and tastes very smooth and tender.

I like to make fish with pickled cabbage or boiled fish, such as silver carp and grass carp. I will throw away the fatter piece. But speaking of fish offal, I like it very much, but fish offal is only sold in winter, and the price is not cheap.

In the twelfth lunar month, every family likes to buy herring or grass carp weighing more than 10 kg, and dry them into dried fish after pickling. These fish are big, so their scales are big, their intestines are thick and their fish oil is thick. Someone will take it home and burn it after the stall owner helps clean it up.

Fried fish scales One year when I was dealing with grass carp, my child's eleven or twelve-year-old cousin saw it and told me that my aunt's fish scales were edible, and then I could eat them.

Wash the fish scales basically, marinate them with cooking wine, salt and pepper for a while, then beat them with egg white, mix in a proper amount of raw flour, fry them in a pan until golden, and then take them out. Those who like salt and pepper flavor or cumin powder and Chili powder can sprinkle some on it.

Fish intestines, fish livers, scrambled eggs and fish intestines can all be eaten. I didn't know until last year. When I bought fish with my aunt last year, she asked me if I wanted to take these fish sausages home. I was still confused at that time. Then I thought there might be something fishy. Forget it!

Clean the fish intestines and liver thoroughly, pour appropriate amount of water into the pot, add onion ginger, cooking wine and salt, cook, take out and cut into small pieces, beat in appropriate amount of eggs, add onion ginger powder, pepper, cooking wine and salt, stir well, and spread into golden egg cakes on both sides.

Fried sauerkraut with fish oil I always thought that fish oil was still fishy when cooked, and it might not be delicious when used for cooking, but my sister-in-law said that her mother often fried sauerkraut with fish oil, which was said to be delicious.

Wash the fish with warm water, drain the water, cut it into small pieces with a knife, put it in a pot, slowly boil out an appropriate amount of fish oil in the fish oil pot, add pepper and minced ginger and garlic, stir fry until fragrant, then add sauerkraut, stir fry evenly, and add a little water to stew for a while.

In many places, there is also a whole fish feast, which uses different cooking techniques for different parts of the fish.
