"Laifeng Fish" is the originator of the popularity of "Jianghu dishes" in Chongqing in recent years, and then there are spicy chicken, taro chicken, post office crucian carp, Taian fish and so on. The grass carp is authentic, and most of them are silver carp.
Taian fish, commonly known as "Tuotuo fish", comes from Taian Town, Tongnan District, Chongqing, and is a famous dish in Chongqing Jianghu cuisine. Silver carp must be chosen for Tai 'an fish, because silver carp is tender and has big thorns, so it won't get stuck.
brief introduction
Laifeng Post was originally a post station on the ancient Chengdu-Chongqing Post Road, with the same name as Longquanyi, Shuangfeng Post and Baishi Post, and it is one of the "four famous posts" on the ancient Chengdu-Chongqing Post Road. It has been a land of plenty since ancient times. "Huayang National Records Eight Records" says: "The earth is planted with mountains and streams, and six animals are sacrificed. Silkworm, hemp, fish and salt are all tributes. "
Jiaqing's "Bishan Zhi" records: "Scales belong to river carp, cliff carp, silver carp, trout crucian carp, seven-star fish, red-pointed fish, purple towel fish and so on." Seven-star fish, red-pointed fish and green-skinned fish, which are rich in Laifeng South River in Bishan, are tributes of past dynasties.
In the mid-1970s, a group of chefs, led by Deng Yongquan and Tang (known as Tang Deaf), made bold innovations on the basis of inheriting the traditional cooking methods of Sichuan cuisine and cooked "Laifeng Fish" with the main characteristics of "hemp, spicy, spicy and tender", which was deeply loved by diners in the past.
