Fish-flavored shredded pork is named after seasoning with fish flavor. Fish and coriander are only available in recent decades, and the originator is a Sichuan cuisine chef in the early years of the Republic of China. Fish-flavored shredded pork is made of pickled pepper, Sichuan salt, soy sauce, white sugar, Jiang Mo, minced garlic and onion. This seasoning has nothing to do with fish. It is named "Yuxiang" after imitating the seasoning and method of Sichuan folk cooking fish. It has the characteristics of salty, sweet, sour, spicy, fresh and fragrant, and it tastes excellent when used for cooking.
The main ingredient of this dish is pork. You should choose 30% fat and 70% thin pork to shred and fry, so that the shredded pork is fresh and tender. The dishes are ruddy, tender, tender and full of fish flavor.
According to legend, a long time ago, there was a business family in Sichuan. People in their family like eating fish very much, and they are very particular about seasonings, so when cooking fish, they have to put some seasonings, such as onion, ginger, garlic, wine, vinegar and soy sauce, to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor. One night, when the hostess of this family was frying another dish, in order not to waste the ingredients, she fried all the ingredients left over from the last fish cooking in this dish. She thought at that time, this dish may not be very delicious, and it may be difficult to explain when the men at home come back. While she was in a daze, her husband went home on a business trip. I don't know if this husband is hungry or thinks this bowl of food is special. He grabbed a handful with his hand and swallowed it in his mouth before dinner. Before waiting for a minute, he couldn't wait to ask his wife what this dish was made of. When she just stuttered, she accidentally found that her husband repeatedly praised the taste of this dish. Seeing that she didn't answer, the husband asked, "What is this good dish made of?" In this way, my wife told him about it in detail. Moreover, this dish is fried with ingredients such as grilled fish, and it tastes endless, so it is named fish-flavored fried, hence the name. Later, after several years of improvement by Sichuanese, this dish was included in Sichuan recipes very early, such as fish-flavored pork liver, fish-flavored shredded pork, fish-flavored eggplant seeds and fish-flavored three-silk. Nowadays, this kind of food has a unique flavor, which makes it popular with people all over the country.
