Hello readers and friends, thank you for reading the food articles I shared, experience and sharing with you, today I want to share with you the content is: ""Brain gold" saury, Japanese people eat every day, but few people eat in China? There are 5 disadvantages!'
Japan is an island country, the main food is obtained from the sea, and the seasonality is very strong, the Japanese eat fish in spring, pine fish in early summer, eel in mid-summer, dragonfly in early autumn, knifefish in mid-autumn, warp fish in late autumn, and pufferfish in winter. There are also marine fish such as salmon, tuna, and moon fish, all of which are common fish in Japanese cuisine.
The knife fish eaten by the Japanese refers to the saury fish, and in the mainland Taiwan region, it is also popular to eat saury, also called bamboo knife fish. Because the peak of this fish is autumn, it is called saury.
In the mainland, there is a custom of "sticking autumn fat" in autumn, and the Japanese will eat autumn knife fish after autumn, usually fried, grilled, fried, or made into kelp rolls.
The production of saury is very large, so the price in Japan is also particularly cheap, and both the upper and lower groups can afford to consume them. At the same time, there are many saury practices that can be adapted to various groups of people, which leads to the Japanese people's great preference for eating saury. Japanese people like to eat fish, which also brings them a lot of benefits.
Marine fish has a high nutritional value, rich in protein, unsaturated fatty acids, such as DHA/ARA/EPA, etc., which are greatly beneficial to brain and neurodevelopment, and can also protect cardiovascular and anti-aging, making it a very healthy ingredient.
Saury contains a lot of DHA, which is called "brain gold" by the Japanese, but everyone found that there is no such a good fish, but it is not popular in China, and almost no one eats it. We would rather eat river fish such as grass carp and crucian carp than saury. Asked a lot of friends, one said that they don't want to eat a bite, what is the reason for this?
My friend explained to me for half a day, and I summarized several reasons.
1, a small thorn, fish meat has a fishy smell
This friend often goes to eat Japanese food, and saury eats more. Don't look at the Fact that Japanese people like to eat saury, it's not that saury is delicious. Saury is small in size, but there are many fish bones, more than grass carp and crucian carp, and you can eat one bite of thorns in three bites.
Even for people who eat fish regularly, it is not easy to achieve "separation of flesh and bone" when eating saury. And the saury fish meat has a special fishy taste and bitter taste, braised, fried and other methods of poor taste, baking with salt is the best way, but still can not remove the fishy taste and bitter taste, seriously affect the taste.
Grass carp, crucian carp, as well as freshwater fish such as sea bass and Wuchang fish, have a delicious taste, a particularly small fishy taste, and a richer method, which is much more delicious than saury. Even if you eat marine fish, you will choose brought fish, mackerel, etc., and you will not choose saury.
2, poor taste
Japanese people eat fish, eat the whole thing, eat it raw, and try to keep it original. When eating saury, they will not go to the guts, but everyone may not know that the reason why the meat of the saury is bitter is because of the internal organs, but they think that this taste is the "essence of the saury".
I once ate grilled saury in a Japanese food store, I don't know if it was added with lemon juice or what the reason, I felt that the fish meat is sour, the taste is very chai, not tender at all, like chewing paper.
The Japanese believe that the nutritional value of saury offal is very high, but I can't eat a bite, and it's disgusting to watch.
3, the handling is very troublesome
If you eat saury and don't want to eat offal, you have to open the intestines and break the belly of the fish and deal with it. Due to the small size of saury, it is not as convenient to handle freshwater fish such as grass carp, crucian carp, and sea bass. If you are not careful, it is easy to break the internal organs, so that the whole fish will become bitter, the fishy taste is still relatively heavy, very unpalatable.
In river fish, even smaller yellow spicy dice are simpler to handle than saury, and have no advantage over common river fish.
4. Fish and meat have toxins, which can cause allergic reactions
Some people are allergic to peanuts, some are allergic to soybeans, and some people are allergic to saury. Can fish also cause allergies? Yes. Saury contains a lot of histamine, including mackerel, bluefish, sardines and other green-skinned and red-fleshed marine fish have this ingredient.
If you are allergic to saury, but mistakenly eat saury, it will cause poisoning, skin redness, itching and other conditions, affecting physical health, so most people do not eat saury.
5, the price is more expensive than river fish
Japanese people like to eat saury because saury is very cheap, and when we eat fish, we also choose cheap fish. In China, the price of saury is about 13 yuan a pound, while the price of frozen saury is more than 20 yuan a catty, which is too expensive. You know, grass carp, carp, crucian carp and other river fish, the market is only 6 to 8 yuan a pound, delicious taste, and is fresh, who will buy saury?
