The tips for steaming bass without fishy smell and delicious taste include selecting fresh bass, curing for a period of time, mastering the heat, sprinkling seasoning and so on.
Choose fresh perch, which is an important prerequisite to ensure that the fish is not fishy. Fresh perch scales are intact, gills are bright red, and fish is elastic. When handling perch, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the blood and black inner membrane, which are the main sources of fishy smell. At the same time, pickling with ginger onion and cooking wine for a period of time can also effectively remove the fishy smell.
The temperature of the steamed bass is very important. Fast steaming on high fire can ensure the freshness of the fish, and at the same time avoid the fishy smell caused by overcooking the fish. Generally speaking, according to the size of the fish, steaming for 1-15 minutes is more appropriate. Appropriate seasonings can make the bass more tasty. When steaming the fish, you can sprinkle some shredded ginger, shredded onion and shredded red pepper on the fish. These seasonings can not only improve the taste, but also help to remove the fishy smell.
Selection method of perch
1. Observe the appearance: The fresh perch has complete appearance, neat scales and no damage to the body. If the fish body is damaged or scales fall off, it may affect the quality and taste of the fish. At the same time, the gill of perch should be bright red, indicating that the fish is fresh.
2. Check the fish eyes: Fresh bass eyes should be clear and transparent without turbidity. If the fish's eyes are sunken or the eye membrane is blurred, it may indicate that the fish is not fresh.
3. Pressing the fish: Gently press the fish with your fingers. The fresh meat quality of the perch should be firm and elastic, and it can recover quickly after pressing. If the fish is soft and leaves obvious fingerprints after pressing, it may indicate that the fish is not fresh.
4. Smell: Fresh perch should have no odor and a faint fishy smell. If you smell strange smell or fishy smell, it may indicate that the fish is not fresh.
