Do you really know what seafood is freshest when you come to Xiamen to eat seafood?

For Xiamen people, especially the old Xiamen people, seafood is an indispensable delicacy on the table, and many tourists will choose to eat a sumptuous seafood dinner in Xiamen. But there are many kinds of seafood in Xiamen, and many people don't know what to eat, where to eat and how to eat better.

Here, Bian Xiao answers the question of what to eat first and can give you a suggestion. You can order seafood in season according to the time when you come to Xiamen. Seafood also has a breeding stage. Eating seasonal seafood is not only more delicious, but also healthier. Here, Bian Xiao compiled a simple map of seasonal seafood based on memory and some materials, which is basically a home-cooked dish often eaten by Xiamen locals and a common seafood in food stalls for your reference.

spring

Mackerel (early spring)

Sliced fried, or soy sauce water, and mackerel is the most suitable seafood for fish balls, no one.

Grouper (late spring)

The meat is tender and chewy, which is considered as a high-grade fish. If you don't steam it, it will be wasted.

Braised fish (late spring)

Xiamen people like to eat a kind of fish very much. It's beautiful, with golden stripes, fresh and tender. Small soy sauce water, big steaming is best.

Balang fish (at the turn of spring and summer)

Home cooking, stir-fried, fried, boiled, steamed and roasted, is ok, and most of what is seen at the barbecue stalls is dry. When Bian Xiao's mother doesn't like cooking, she likes to fry a few casually and send them to me, from snacks to big cooking, which is simple and delicious.

Fresh brown fish

Pomfret (turn of spring and summer)

There are many kinds of pomfret, including pomfret, grey pomfret and fighting fish, among which pomfret has the best meat quality. This kind of fish has soft bones and no thorns, so it is very suitable for children to eat. General soy sauce water.

Mussels or mussels (Qingming or Mid-Autumn Festival)

summer

clam

Although clams can be eaten all year round, May-June is the fattest and freshest period of Xiamen clams every year. Clams with soy sauce water are more delicious, oil clams with soy sauce water are more delicious than clams, and soup clams are more fresh and sweet.

Flower clam

clam

Ocean razor

Roasted salt and soy sauce taste good.

scallop

July is the fattest time for scallops, and barbecue is the favorite. The best Bian Xiao thinks it should be steamed scallops with garlic vermicelli.

abalone

The high-yield season of abalone in Xiamen is July and August every year. With the increase of temperature, abalone moves to shallow sea area for breeding. Abalone is tender and delicious at this time! Generally, small abalone food stalls are cooked with soy sauce or soup.

autumn

sabotage

Autumn in Xiamen is the best time for crabs, and steaming at home is delicious. There are many crabs to choose from in Xiamen, but generally speaking, it is not wrong to pick a male crab with a pointed white belly in September and a female crab with a round yellow belly in June 5438+ 10.

prawn

Boiled shrimp is the best, and it can still taste the original sweetness.

jellyfish

Cold salad is the best!

Red-brown fish (late autumn to winter)

Soy sauce water or dry frying, Bian Xiao thinks dry frying is the best.

winter

oyster

Oysters are the best before coming to Tomb-Sweeping Day in winter. This is a famous snack in Xiamen, fried with oysters. At the same time, fried oysters are also a must-eat dish for Xiamen people in the New Year. Of course, the best way to eat is barbecue!

Fried oysters

Fawei

Most people in southern Fujian like hairtail, one is delicious, and the other is high yield. The best way for fresh hairtail is to use soy sauce water, or wrap it in powder and fry it.

yellow croaker

It is also a must-eat food for Xiamen New Year's Eve, and soy sauce is the best. Yellow flower fish is tender, protein is high and cholesterol is low, which is suitable for all ages. Because wearing a "golden coat" means auspiciousness, it is a frequent visitor at the table.

Red snapper

The Minnan language is called Cala. According to the data, in East Asian culture, soft-shelled turtle is regarded as a noble sacrificial fish by Japan and South Korea. This fish is used in weddings and funerals in old Xiamen. This kind of fish is big, delicious and beautiful in color, and is deeply loved by old Xiamen people. At present, most of Jiala on the market are farmed fish. Old Xiamen often stewed cabbage and tofu with fish heads and bones, and food stalls were mostly used for soy sauce water.

Blood worm, also known as flower worm.

In Minnan dialect, "you can make a lot of money with shell money." Eating blood clams on New Year's Eve means praying for a rich income in the coming year. Usually boiled water or soy sauce water.

Finally, Bian Xiao simply answered the question of where to eat seafood. Go to Xiamen to eat seafood, 1. You can go to the food stall. 2. You can buy ingredients from Bashi and then take them to Bashi's seafood processing shop for cooking.

Many Xiamen people will go to seafood processing shops after buying seafood in Bashi, and some will pursue freshness, because many seafood will die soon after going out to sea, and some seafood will be taken to seafood processing shops because they can't handle it themselves.

Hope to adopt. Thank you.
