You can make crucian carp soup with Poria cocos, some pork, a fresh crucian carp and some dried rehmannia root, ginger, salt, prepared rehmannia root and candied dates. Remove the black film from the crucian carp, then clean it, add a proper amount of oil to the pot, put down the ginger slices and fry them until both sides are brown, and add a proper amount of water to the pot. Pour the cooked crucian carp into the pot together with the soup, and add the sliced meat. Wash Radix Rehmanniae, Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae and Fructus Jujubae slightly, and put them into soup bags and casseroles. After the fire boils, turn to low heat and simmer for about 1 hour. Finally, skim the foam from the soup and add salt to taste.

You can make crucian bean curd soup. You need to prepare an appropriate amount of tofu, a fresh crucian carp, an appropriate amount of vegetable oil, some chopped green onion, Jiang Mo, cooking wine, monosodium glutamate, salt, remove the viscera and phosphorus of crucian carp, and then cut the tofu into strips for later use. Heat the oil in the pan, add the crucian carp and fry until both sides are slightly yellow, add 1000g cooking wine, ginger slices, tofu and water, boil over high fire, skim the floating foam, then simmer for about 20 minutes, add salt and monosodium glutamate, skim the chopped green onion, and put it into the soup basin.

You can also make papaya and crucian carp soup. You need to prepare a fresh crucian carp, a proper amount of papaya, a little oil and red dates, and some water. Remove the viscera and scales of crucian carp, and then wash them for later use. After washing papaya, peel and remove the core, and then cut into pieces. After removing the ginger skin, slice it and pour the oil into the frying pan. When the oil is 70% hot, add the crucian carp, fry it until it is slightly yellow, and start a new stove. When the fire is over medium heat and the water temperature is about 60 degrees, the fried crucian carp will be transferred to the casserole, and ginger slices will be added to boil (I basically have a fire in the casserole and frying pan at the same time, so that the water in the casserole is just warm when frying fish, and everyone knows that if the fish soup is directly cooked with cold water, the color of the soup will not turn milky white no matter how long it takes). After boiling for five to ten minutes, add red dates and papaya pieces, bring to a boil over medium heat, turn to low heat, cover and cook for 20 minutes, and season with salt before eating.
