Every country has its own unique food. When coming to Japan, many people are attracted by the beautiful and lovely Japanese flag fish. How do the Japanese deal with it? With the continuous improvement of people's material level in China, traveling abroad has become more and more common, while Japan attracts many people to visit because of its city image, and its delicious food also makes people drool. Japanese people love to eat sashimi, and salmon is very common in all kinds of Japanese food shops, but this kind of fish to be mentioned today is only available in Japan, and the price is even more expensive than salmon. This kind of fish is the Japanese flag fish, so it is called the flag fish because the pattern on the back of the fish is very similar to the Japanese flag, so the Japanese affectionately call them the flag fish.
The survival time of flag fish is very short after landing, so most fishing merchants need to carry ice packs to keep the flag fish fresh. In Japan, the common practice of flag fish is to eat it raw, cut it into thin slices and dip it in some sauce. The raw flag fish is not fishy, because it comes from the sea, and it will be slightly salty. Eating it raw is really a delicacy in Japan. For many Japanese people, this dish is a must when they come to China.
In addition to being eaten raw, Japanese flag fish can also be fried. Usually, the Japanese will fry the flag fish in the tender place, but it will not be wasted in other places. It can be used for braising in soy sauce or making tempura. The Japanese are also very keen on tempura, which is very crisp. The fried tempura has no fishy smell of fish at all. If you don't tell the diners that it is fish, I believe they will never guess. Japanese people have a long history of eating flag fish, and they are also very particular about eating it. They prefer to keep the original flavor of the food, so eating it raw is their best choice. Eating flag fish raw is a well-known food in Japan, and it also attracts foreign tourists who travel to Wan Li.
