People near the Bohai Sea ranked the delicious fish in the Bohai Sea? According to the traditional custom, only the top three are selected, so there is a saying of "one level, two silver carp and three sole eyes". This sentence has been handed down from generation to generation, and it is inevitable that there will be errors, and the understanding of this sentence is now divided.
Some people say that one, two, three are sorted according to the best taste, the second best taste and the last best taste. This statement may not hold water either, because these three kinds of fish are really delicious and indistinguishable. For example, sole fish is tender and even better than flatfish.
The mouth of the sole fish is rich in gum, which tastes like the ointment of the male river crab and sticks to the teeth. There is also the fragrant glutinous rice on the skirt of the turtle. An expert, when he saw a big sole on the table, first aimed at the sole's mouth with his chopsticks. Savvy diners know the delicious taste of sole mouth.
It is also said that one, two, three here refers to the weight. A catty of flat fish, two catties of sea silver carp and three catties of sole fish are delicious. This statement seems to be closer to the truth of taste. Xiaoping fish with a weight of less than four and a half kilos is indeed much less delicious than flat fish with a weight of more than seven or eight kilos.
The meat quality of Xiaoping fish is also tender, but the fish lacks the ultimate softness and freshness of Daping fish, and Daping fish has the feeling of melting in the mouth. The silver carp disappeared in the Bohai Sea long ago, and the old people in Bailitan have a vague memory of the silver carp. Nowadays, most of the sea silver carp eaten by people are chilled in the south, and even the silver carp weighing two kilograms tastes mediocre.
Moreover, there are too many fishbones, and it feels like walking naked among thorns, for fear that the throat will be pricked by fishbones. The same is true for sole fish, which weighs enough to make the meat more beautiful. Everyone who has eaten it knows that it will not be detailed here.
There is also a saying that they think it should be "one level, two quick and three eyes". The second fast here refers to barracuda, because barracuda swims fast. Barracuda, weighing more than 2 kg, tastes good. Objectively speaking, barracuda, no matter how big and delicious it is, is also a civilian, and its taste will never rise to the clouds. Therefore, this "two-fast barracuda theory" is even more doubtful and even more "hehe".
