How to make fish balls by yourself?
Tell the fish stall owner that you want to make fish balls, and he will help you slice such a piece of fish, and ask to keep the skin of the fish after removing the big bone (if you scrape the minced fish by hand)

If it is a fish weighing about 1 kg, slice such a piece of meat yourself, and try it. Just cut it diagonally from the tail to the big bone, and then push it along the big bone towards the head
. If you encounter a thorn, the thorn will stand up when scraping, and it will be convenient to pull it out at the end of scraping. The minced fish made by this method will never have small thorns.
The premise is that you can't scrape a piece of meat at once.

I used to scrape with a knife, but now with a high-power high-speed blender, I can finish a piece of fish in 3 seconds. When high-speed blender hits, you should peel it first. Put half a piece of ginger in a catty of fish, and put ginger powder if you shave your own minced fish.
I'd like to add that the red part will be fishy, so it's better to remove it. I realized it too deeply recently.

Then add the onion. Jiang Shui
A friend reminded me to suggest that we start the experiment with fish 3: water 1, and the success rate will be much higher. Thanks to this chef!
(My ratio is about 1:1, and many American moms say that it can't be stirred. Novice operation or manual operation can appropriately reduce the water and slowly add it until it is almost the same as the state of minced fish in my picture. )
more water makes it tender, so I cook it for children, and I like the tender taste.
There is no high-power cooking machine, so if you are afraid of small thorns, you can shave it by hand, and then add water into a small cooking cup to mix the onion, Jiang Shui and fish.
Remember to add less water first and slowly!

and then change the K-type mixing head of the chef machine to start mixing. At this time, seasoning can be done by slowly adding salt, and you can also add a little sugar and a spoonful of cooking oil.
If you don't have a chef's machine to stir, use chopsticks. It's the same, but it takes longer. The chef's machine is slow for about 15 minutes, and the manual stirring is at least 15 minutes or more. After adding salt, you will feel more and more resistance on your hands.
At this time, if the manual stirring is too tired, you can add some corn starch and egg white appropriately, which can help the fish balls to form
