Preamble:
In recent years, due to people's pursuit of delicious ingredients and the improvement of dietary standards, some traditional ingredients have gradually attracted attention, such as herring, one of the four major fish. The taste of herring is delicious, known as "Xiucai herring", and it is a favorite ingredient of many gourmets. In addition to its unique taste and nutritional value, herring also has a little-known identity, that is, "life-seeking fish". This title has caused many people to have some misunderstandings about herring, thinking that it is a ferocious fish that will actively hurt people. In fact, the reason why the herring fish is called "life-seeking fish" is entirely due to its special habits and physiological structure.
First, the unique charm of herring
Herring, also known as bighead carp, is the most important economic freshwater fish species in the mainland, and it is also the first of the four major fish, with high economic value.
1. Delicious taste
The body of herring is slender and soft, the scales are delicate, the meat is fat, the taste is delicious, and the nutrition is rich, and it is a very high-quality edible fish. Whether it is steamed, braised or fried, it can maintain the tenderness and original flavor of the fish, which is loved by people.
2. Elegant living habits
Herring fish live in rivers and lakes, they swim very slowly, and swim in the water very elegantly, giving people a leisurely feeling.
3. Unique "herring stone"
The herring has an organ called a "herring stone" in the throat area, which helps them chew food and is the key to their ability to swallow a variety of hard foods.
Second, the herring fish is called the "life-seeking fish".
Although the herring itself does not have any aggression, it is given the nickname of "life-seeking fish" because of some special habits and physical conditions.
1. Great size and strength
Herring fish grow in rivers and lakes and have no natural predators, so they are very large in size and strength, and it is easy to drag ordinary fishing lines and even drag fishing rods to swim.
2. Likes to drag poles and drown
In addition, herring also has a "specialty", that is, it likes to swim with a fishing line, which makes many fishing enthusiasts feel both novel and interesting. Sometimes, however, this habit of the herring can lead to unexpected events, such as rod towing and drowning.
In fact, herring fish do not mean to hurt people, but they are timid, once frightened, they will desperately struggle and escape, it is easy to cause some accidents, so everyone must pay attention to safety when fishing.
3. Market prospects for herring farming
Because the herring has a long growth cycle and is very timid, it is not easy to artificially breed herring, and the risk of breeding is relatively large, and the feed cost of herring is relatively high, which is why the market price of herring has been relatively expensive.
But it is precisely because of this that there are not many places on the market where you can buy real wild herring, and it is relatively scarce, so if you have the conditions, you can consider raising some herring at home, which can not only solve the delicious ingredients of life, but also cultivate an interesting breeding hobby.
Conclusion:
As a very distinctive freshwater fish, herring has a very high status in terms of both edible value and ornamental value, but while enjoying the deliciousness, we must also learn to protect herring and respect their living environment and living habits, so that rare fish such as herring can be better grown and reproduced, and more people have the opportunity to taste their unique charm.
