Over the years, along with the rise of farmed fish, fish eat up special surface, more and more no fish fresh flavor. The only thing is this most life in the fried fish pieces, through the marinade into the flavor later, or childhood flavor, always let a person nostalgic.
Pickling party into the flavor, to fishy to taste
Naturally, deep-fried small fish delicious, can not be separated from the fish pickling into the flavor, fishy to taste, this is also the root of the standard, this step is not dry, salty and fresh people can not be said. Fish, there is a certain fishy flavor, fishy flavor, so be sure to "first fishy, after the taste", "to remove the fishy flavor, so that the fresh aroma into the".

The difference between wheat flour and starch
Fried fish pieces, many people think that the same with wheat flour and tapioca starch, which would be very wrong, the preparation of batter with wheat flour and tapioca starch with what is the difference? Flour is composed of wheat protein, wheat starch, in which wheat protein is almost 17%; while tapioca starch generally does not correspond to the protein component, just simple tapioca starch, common corn flour, corn starch, groundnut starch, bean starch and so on. Wheat flour with a certain amount of wheat protein content, in fact, is simply said to be the water gluten, it is easier to deep-fry small fish coated with noodles, fried out of the ingredients is also very fragrant and soft, is the "soft fried caramelization" of the important materials. Tapioca starch, if there is no corresponding protein component, so the fried ingredients taste crunchy, the actual effect of crispy outside and tender inside. You can also think of it this way: wheat flour is soft and flavorful, tapioca starch is crunchy.
Batter preparation
Fried fish, some people take wheat flour, some people take tapioca starch, the old chef: are not right, that fried fish is appropriate. Overall the above description of the characteristics of flour and tapioca starch, pure wheat flour and tapioca starch can not be fried into the actual results of satisfactory fried fish pieces. Below, friends share a preparation of the batter of the golden ratio: the ratio of raw eggs and flour is 1 to 1, in fact, is every 100 grams of raw eggs to match 100 grams of flour, generally an egg by 50 grams measured. What is the ratio of wheat flour to corn starch? That should distinguish between "soft fried coke" and "crispy fried coke", mainly depends on the drinking group, if the elderly, children, take the soft fried coke; if more young people, is crispy fried coke.
