Fish head and radish soup
If fish heads are used to make soup, they are usually served with radishes or tofu. Tuotuo Mom prefers to serve it with radishes. The soup cooked in this way is very clear and sweet. Moreover, radishes can remove the fire of the fish and are a good ingredient to reduce the fire in winter.
