Mention of puffer fish, the general public are far from respect, but there are still many people covet puffer fish meat, "eat puffer fish to the death", China Chaoshan is a favorite puffer fish area,

Puffer fish is delicious but poisonous, the state although expressly prohibited, but this food custom is y rooted, repeatedly prohibited. Qing Guangxu "Chao Yang County Records" is recorded in this way: "blowfish, the natives called the good fish, like its shape. Taste sweet and rich, the people compete with the appetite, but between the poison, can kill." I'm ashamed to say that I also like a lot of people in Chaoshan who like puffer fish have repeatedly risked their lives to try the flavor. Of course, "risk" may be a bit overstated, often eat puffer fish people, probably not at all "death" feeling.

But the good thing is that mankind has long been to find the right solution, although the puffer fish is poisonous, but not all places are poisonous, people want to eat the parts of the meat of the puffer fish can be said to be completely non-toxic, so everyone dares to go forward to consume the puffer fish

Fugu meat contains protein, fat, vitamin A, B1, B2 and niacin, calcium, phosphorus, iron, and its toxic substances tetrodotoxin, tetrodotoxic acid. There are many kinds of puffer fish, most of them are poisonous, with different degrees of toxicity. In terms of tissues and organs, ovaries and liver contain the most toxins, followed by spleen, intestines and skin, while the meat is almost non-toxic, and even for the most poisonous puffer fish, its meat contains very little toxin.

Eating puffer fish is not only a kind of delicious enjoyment, it is also beneficial to people's health, for example: puffer fish contains EPA, DHA, two kinds of special fatty acids known as the "brain gold", which is a great tonic for the brain health. At the same time, it contains rich collagen, which is a famous product for whitening and enhancing the appearance, and the essence of puffer fish contains special natural active materials, for example, the fish essence protein has the role of Kang Sheng, which has the role of inhibiting and generating white tumors in the body, and the fins of puffer fish are used to make wine with the traditional Chinese Tiger Bone Wine, which has the same effect as that of aphrodisiacs, and also has a very good therapeutic effect on rheumatism arthritis and periarthritis.
