Wuhan people's characteristic method of cooking fish-glutinous rice cake fish

There is a local food in Wuhan called "Kang Ciba". In Mandarin, it means "Jiantang Ciba". Ultra-traditional snacks with a long history. In the early years, it was delicious food that could only be enjoyed during the New Year. The cooking process of this fish is similar to Kang glutinous rice cake, so it is named glutinous rice cake. Different from traditional braised fish, glutinous rice cake fish pieces are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

    1. Fish pieces should be fried slowly over low heat, not too impatient. 2. Marinate the fish pieces in advance, and no salt needs to be added during the frying process. 3. If time permits, marinate for an extra day or two, so that the taste of the fish will be better. 4. After the fish pieces are marinated, they can be placed in a ventilated place and air-dried for a long time to dry the water on the surface of the fish. The taste of the glutinous rice cake fish will be more authentic (my conditions do not allow it, the dust outside is too big, so there is no air-dried moisture)
