Smoked vinegar and boiled water
Walking in the supermarket, I occasionally see split meat of sea bass on sale. Because the fish was so big, no one cared for the whole fish, so the salesperson divided it into pieces and sold it.
Although this sea bass is not very delicious, it has few fresh bones, and I am most afraid of fish bones, haha! I thought it was very fresh, so I picked a fish tail. The tail of sea bass is very tender and contains a lot of collagen, making it easy to handle.
Today, I use it to make a dish, make a strong flavor, called "smoked vinegar and boiled water". Professional chefs call the tail of a fish paddling, so let's call it paddling!

    Characteristics of Vinegar Braising: Deep red color, rich vinegar aroma, sweet and sour with a hint of saltiness, tender texture, and delicious flavor. Friendly Tips: 1. Since the fish tail has already been split open with a knife, there is no need to score it with cross-hatch cuts during braising. 2. Use a bit more sugar and vinegar to make this dish for a richer flavor; darker smoked vinegar is more suitable. 3. If using a non-stick pan, less oil is needed. After pan-frying, simply finish the dish in the same pot; there is no need to remove the fish to stir-fry the aromatics separately. 4. For the heat control: high heat at the beginning and end, with low heat in the middle. Specifically, bring to a boil over high heat, then switch to low heat to simmer until cooked, and finally use high heat to reduce the sauce.
