Scavengers are considered a delicacy in India, so why doesn’t anyone eat the catfish that is also rampant?

Speaking of scavengers, most people have a feeling of disgust towards them, especially some friends in the south who like fishing, they hate them so much that they even call them "junk fish". What is unexpected is that this alien species, which is deeply hated by many people, is actually regarded as a delicacy in India, but this is understandable, after all, Indians have always had weird tastes. Like scavengers, overrun catfish are treated differently. Although fish is a common food on people's tables, few people eat catfish.

Normally, the bodies of most catfish are very slimy, so people named them catfish. From the perspective of catfish itself, there is nothing harmful about it, and the meat of catfish is also very delicious, and compared with other fish creatures, it is relatively rich in nutrients. To a certain extent, catfish can be considered a delicacy. The reason why people don’t like to eat it is mainly related to the living environment of catfish.

Most catfish like to live in rivers with poor water quality. Not only that, they also like to eat garbage in the water. As you can imagine, the garbage is certainly unclean. Because of this, people will think that the meat of catfish has been contaminated and may cause harm to the body if eaten. No matter how delicious the meat of catfish is, people dare not eat it. In addition, another reason is that catfish is more complicated to cook. If it is not cleaned or the cooking techniques are not skillful, it will be difficult to make a delicious dish.

Because catfish often eat garbage or come into contact with various kinds of soil in the water, the catfish has a very strong earthy smell. If there is no reasonable and correct way to deal with this earthy smell when cooking, it will naturally affect people's appetite. After all, when people eat delicious food, in addition to the taste, the smell is also very important.
