Dishes
Shanghai Smoked FishShanghai smoked fish is a Chinese dish made primarily with grass carp or carp. The fish is cut into pieces, deep-fried until golden brown, then simmered in a sauce made from sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, and yellow wine until fully flavored. Finally, sesame seeds are sprinkled on top. The cooking process emphasizes precise temperature control to achieve tender, juicy meat with a crispy exterior and a bright red color.
