Legend has it that stone fish is a special food of famous chefs in Qing Dynasty. This is a casserole with two ears, which is carved from a big granite. The pot is bigger than the basin, and it should be full and strong. When cooking stone fish, cook the fish in a hot casserole. Firstly, Chinese herbal medicine soup is added, and then all kinds of spices, mainly peppers, are added.
Around the Temes Hotel in the city, there is a stone fish shop called "Date that Day". Shopkeeper Tang Maotian told reporters that they welcomed many customers shortly after their opening, and the eye-catching rate of consumers was relatively high. He said that stone fish is rich in nutrition, because the traditional Chinese medicine soup often contains more iron ions of Dendrobium huoshanense, and the casserole itself contains nutrients beneficial to the body, so the fish cooked in the casserole can not only improve eyesight, beauty, benefit the brain, but also have the effects of anti-aging, wrinkle removal and skin care. The price can also be accepted by customers.
"To make a pot of stone fish, it is especially important to choose materials." Tang Maotian told reporters that the pine fish in the store was specially airlifted from the Jiangsu Water Control Project to Jieyang City and then raised in the fish tank in the store. When consumers want to eat, they take it out of the fish tank and cook it to ensure that the pine fish tastes fresh and tender.
"To ensure that the taste is moderate, the masses like it, and the choice and quantity of Chinese herbal medicines need to be mastered." Tang Maotian introduced in detail that he first cooks a pot of Chinese herbal medicine soup every morning. This pot of Chinese herbal medicine soup is made of more than a dozen Chinese herbal medicines such as Dendrobium huoshanense, Ophiopogon japonicus, Ginseng, Illicium verum and Cinnamomum cassia leaf. This pot of Chinese herbal medicine soup must be boiled for about three hours. After cooling, put it in the refrigerator and wait for customers to make stone fish at night.
