Time flies so fast, it's the end of the year in a blink of an eye, the students have begun to have winter vacation, and these days, the courtyard of our community has also begun to be lively. Younger children are laughing and running in the yard, while older boys are setting off firecrackers, "the sound of firecrackers bids farewell to the old year, and the family welcomes the new year", the crackling sound of firecrackers adds to the festive atmosphere, reminding people that the new year is coming soon.
The Spring Festival is a traditional festival in our country, and it is also the most solemn festival, so people attach great importance to it. In order for the family to have an auspicious and cheerful New Year, they often start to be happy early, and buying New Year's goods is an important preparation for the New Year. Chicken, duck and fish meat all need to be prepared early, when it comes to fish, in our Jiaodong area, mackerel and hairtail are the most popular, almost every household will fry some hairtail and mackerel in the wax moon, and keep it for the Spring Festival to entertain guests to eat.
When I was a child, I loved to eat my mother's fried hairtail, the bones of the hairtail fish are distributed very regularly, except for a row of small spines on both sides and a large spine in the middle, there are no other messy small spines, so it is more comfortable to eat. The fried hairtail is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the fish meat is delicate, the taste is delicious, and it melts in the mouth, making people want to eat it again.
Friends who often buy hairtail will find that the hairtail sold in the market has two colors: "black eyes" and "yellow eyes", so what is the difference between these two types of fish? Many people don't understand, often buy casually, in fact, the difference between them is quite big, buy hairtail fish during the New Year, "black eyes" and "yellow eyes" to distinguish clearly, there are many differences, understand and then buy without loss! Let's take a look:
Black-eyed ribbon fish:
The black-eyed hairtail is found in the waters of the Yellow and Bohai Seas and the East China Sea, where the water is relatively clear and the water temperature is low. As a result, the growth rate of the hairtail is relatively slow, so the size of the hairtail is relatively small, but because of this environment, its meat is firm, the taste is delicate and tender, the fishy smell is lighter, and the taste is better than that of the yellow-eyed hairtail. It doesn't require complicated cooking methods, and it is very delicious when made, and it is more suitable for original steaming or braised dishes.
Yellow-eyed ribbon fish:
Yellow-eyed hairtail fish is produced in the waters of the South China Sea, where the water is relatively turbid, the water temperature is high, and there is an abundance of food. Therefore, the growth rate of hairtail is faster, it is generally larger, wider in size, and the meat is fat, but the taste is relatively rough, the fishy smell is heavier, the meat is also very loose, and the taste is slightly worse than that of the black-eyed hairtail. Because of its fishy smell, it is best to add onion ginger, pepper and cooking wine and other seasonings to marinate, remove the flavor and increase the fragrance before continuing to do, which is more suitable for making fried hairtail or other cooking methods with a strong taste.
Black-eyed hairtail and yellow-eyed hairtail not only have different tastes, but also very different. Because of its slow growth, the yield of black-eyed hairtail is relatively low, therefore, it is also more valuable than yellow-eyed hairtail, and we can buy it according to our needs when buying.
Knowing the difference between black-eyed hairtail and yellow-eyed hairtail, let's take a look at how to choose fresh hairtail:
The eyes of a fresh hairtail are bright, and if the eyes of the hairtail are cloudy or even red, it means that the hairtail is not fresh. In addition, when buying hairtail, you should try to pick a hairtail with complete surface silver grease, and there is a layer of silver grease on the surface of the hairtail, which is not only very nutritious, but also plays a role in protecting the flesh of the hairtail. If most of the silver fat has been shed, the hairtail will not only lose a lot of nutrients, but the meat may also be contaminated with bacteria and chemicals, and naturally it will not be fresh.
