China has always been concerned about the import of Norwegian salmon, especially since 218, the import volume has increased. And foreign media reported that China stopped. However, Norway, which is rich in salmon, actually exported its salmon to China.
in the northern waters of Norway, there is the largest salmon breeding base in the world.
Salmon producing areas are Sor-Trondelag, Nordland
and Troms respectively, which will take effect on July 3, 218.
In addition to salmon, Norwegian seafood exported to China also includes:
Norwegian Arctic cod, mackerel, Atlantic hairy scale fish (spring fish), red fish and Greenland flounder.
In May p>217, the Norwegian Bureau of Seafood released the "Plan 225". According to the long-term development plan, Norwegian seafood exports to China will increase to a total of 1 billion yuan by 225. Mr. Bi Siming said: "Recently, the export volume of Norwegian salmon has been rising, and more and more Norwegian salmon are exported to the China market. We are making steady progress towards the' 225 Plan'.
In 214, the salmon exported from Norway was found to be infected with Salmon Anemia Virus, which is not contagious to people, but easily contagious to fish schools, causing harm to aquaculture.
Therefore, at that time, China severely banned the whole salmon from three counties, such as Nanterrendelag, from entering the China market, and later lifted the ban.
rainbow trout is a freshwater fish, but it is not a freshwater salmon, so it is not suitable to be eaten raw and easy to be infected with parasites. Salmon is a marine fish. Generally, it is relatively safe to eat raw after being frozen at low temperature.
rainbow trout has a long red line, the meat is light in color, the fat line stripes are narrow and not obvious, the salmon meat is bright in color, and the fat line stripes are wide and obvious.
1. The first argument is that the salmon mentioned in the market in China is the general name of salmon and trout, not the scientific name of a fish, so rainbow trout is salmon.
For example, tuna includes bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, bigeye tuna, bonito and so on, so salmon also includes Pacific salmon, Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout and so on.
2. The second kind is what people usually call salmon, which is Atlantic salmon and a kind of marine fish. Although they are both salmon and trout, the English names of salmon and rainbow trout are different. The English name of salmon is Salom, while the English name of rainbow trout is Rainbow Trout, so the common English name of salmon excludes rainbow trout. A quick way to distinguish salmon from rainbow trout
1. Look at the skin of the fish. Look at the skin of the whole fish and see if there is a red line linking from the upper part of the body to the tail. If there is a red line, it is rainbow trout, if not, it is salmon.
2, the difference between fish. The color of rainbow trout fish is light orange, and its fat line stripes are narrow and not obvious. Salmon meat is bright and orange-red, and its stripes are wide and obvious. Specific differences between rainbow trout and salmon
1. Body size < P > Salmon is bigger than rainbow trout, which is usually more than 1 meter, while rainbow trout is much smaller than salmon.
2. Fish price
The market price of rainbow trout is about 3 yuan/kg, but the price of Norwegian salmon is very high. If you buy sashimi with lower price, it is probably rainbow trout or stale salmon.
3. Meat quality difference
Norwegian salmon is a marine fish living in the Atlantic Ocean, and its fat content is relatively high, so the white fat lines are relatively wide and obvious. Rainbow trout is a freshwater fish, so its fat content is low, and its fat lines are thin and fuzzy. There is also the thickness of fish slices. Norwegian salmon meat is soft and tender, usually cut to a thickness of about .7~1cm, and this thickness is already relatively thick. However, the meat of rainbow trout is hard, and it will be more difficult to bite if it is cut so thick. Salmon fish is bright in color, while rainbow trout fish is dull in color.
4, fish taste
High-quality salmon meat is delicate and tender, so it can be cut very thick, the meat is firm and full, the fish oil is rich and elastic, the taste is very elastic and smooth, and the salmon meat has a special aroma. Rainbow trout is hard and does not have this feature.
5. Species
Salmon is a marine fish that grows in the sea, while rainbow trout is a freshwater fish in China. So the variety is completely different.
