[Ingredients]: salmon head 1 piece, tender tofu 1 chunk.
[Ingredients]: ginger 1 small pieces, a little chopped green onion.

-Start making-
① After the salmon head is purchased from the supermarket, we need to clean it up. The fresh salmon head is bright red, which is particularly beautiful. First, we need to remove its gills. This part is not edible. The friends who eat it for the first time must understand it. Remember to remove it. After cleaning it, we will clean it, rinse it with clear water several times, and then put the fish head on the chopping board and cut it into pieces.
② Put the chopped fish pieces into a large bowl, sprinkle a spoonful of salt and a small amount of cooking wine, and let's marinate them for about 5 to 10 minutes, mainly to remove fishy smell.
(3) We prepare several ingredients for cooking fish soup, pickled fish pieces (all the water is poured out, and it is easy to fry in the next step), tender tofu is cut into small pieces with a knife, ginger is peeled and sliced, and shallots are chopped for later use.
(4) Put a proper amount of cooking oil into the pot, you can put a little more, then preheat it for 1 min, throw it into the salmon pieces and fry them for about 3-4 minutes. As soon as the fish pieces change color, the original bright red will turn pale pink, and this time is almost the same. Don't fry them too much, the meat will get old. This step is the same as crucian carp soup.
⑤ After the fish pieces change color, throw in the ginger slices and pour in the clean water that hasn't touched the fish pieces. Because you want to make soup, you should put a little more water, depending on the amount of fish. If there are many fish, put more water, then pour in a little cooking wine, cover the pot and boil it with high fire.
⑥ After the soup is boiled, we open the lid and put in the tofu. When we cook the soup, we choose tender tofu. Generally, we will choose old tofu when frying. Therefore, we should pay special attention when cutting tofu and putting in tofu. Don't use too much force and move gently to maintain the integrity of tofu. We gently put the cut tofu pieces on the shovel, and then slowly put them into the boiled fish soup. After putting them in, don't turn them over. When tofu meets boiling water, the protein will solidify and shrink, and at this time, tofu will not easily spread. Then we cover the lid and simmer for 8- 10 minutes or so, and we can almost cook. Yes, it must be a small fire, and the soup cooked by a small fire will be fresh, sweet and delicious.
