Luo Bangyiwen In Dali, Yunnan, in addition to Yongping braised chicken, saba fish is also a famous delicacy.

For those who like to eat fish, Shaba Fish is definitely the first choice when visiting Dali.

Shaba is located in the north of Xiaguan, Dali, about 3 kilometers away from the urban area of ??Xiaguan. There is a small village here called Fishing Village. In the past, the people in the small village made a living by fishing on the Erhai Sea. Gradually, they developed their own unique skills in cooking fish.

.

As National Highway 320 passed through the small village, the village began to make a living with boiled fish as the main dish on both sides of the road. Because Cangshan spring water was used, the cooked fish quickly became popular among diners.

The reputation of the village began to grow, and more and more people opened fish restaurants in the village. From a few fish restaurants at the beginning to hundreds now, they spread along the highway for more than 10 kilometers.

The fishing village is very small. Below the fishing village is Shaba Village. Due to the large area of ??Shaba, people later called the fish cooked here "Saba Fish" and formed a regional brand.

When I first came to this small town, I also liked coming to Sapa to eat fish. Especially when friends come, Sapa is definitely their first choice.

Everyone here calls the fish here Erhai fish. In the past, it should have been so. However, due to the protection of Erhai Lake in recent years, fishing of Erhai fish is not allowed. All you eat are crucian carp brought from other places. These crucian carp are very big, and some are big.

If it weighs more than 1 kilogram, basically two fish per person is enough, because the fish cooked here is not cut into pieces, but is cooked whole.

Everyone is curious about how delicious the fish cooked here is, but when I cook it like them, it never tastes that good. Maybe it’s because I eat it too many times, and I became good friends with the bosses, so the boss told me the secret. The main reason is that the fish I buy is the least.

It needs to be raised in a pond with running water for a week, and after the fish has vomited out the sewage in its stomach, coupled with weight loss exercise without eating, the fish will have its unique taste. In addition, onion, ginger, and garlic are essential for cooking fish.

Yunnan peppercorns and homemade plum vinegar are the secret recipe for cooking fish here.

I like to fry the fish here until both sides are golden brown, and then simmer it. The longer the time, the better the taste. In this way, the fine parts of the crucian carp can be fried and crispy, so you don’t have to worry about the fish bones getting stuck in your neck.

Many of my friends ask me to take them to eat saba fish every time they come. They find it sour, spicy and refreshing, and they always want to eat it.

With the opening of the highway 320, the traffic volume on National Highway 320 has decreased, and people who come to eat do not have to wait at least an hour from ordering to being served like in the past.

The locals who opened the fish shop began to rent the shop to outsiders to run it. The taste and texture began to vary. Maybe the chef came from different places, so the taste was different. After the glory, the Saba fish began to plummet, and some even

The store closed down, and everyone labeled it "authentic" but failed to make a comeback.

Local operators had to go back to their old business, and even established an association to cook according to the traditional ingredients of the past. In this way, after several years of hard work, the Saba fish has returned to its previous taste.

Maybe it’s because people’s taste buds become numb after eating it too many times. I started not to like eating fish. Every time I went to eat it, I felt sick to my stomach. From liking it to eating it, I became afraid of eating it. However, I had to take it with me when my friends came.

They ate deliciously and I was very happy.

Every place has its own local delicacies. If you eat many delicacies too many times, it may become a common occurrence.
