Bayu Dumplings

Bayu Dumplings

Overview

We who live by the Bohai Sea have always enjoyed the gift of the sea. However, in recent years, the pollution and the evil intentions of seafood dealers have made us feel more and more uneasy about eating seafood. The dealers who salvage the seafood often add medicine to the fish as soon as it lands to keep it fresh. Alas, my husband went out to sea with the fishing boat on the weekends and caught a lot of fresh Spanish mackerel. It was said that it weighed more than 20 kilograms, haha. My husband said it’s time to make the dumplings so freshly. Just do it and post the picture right away...

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Wash the Spanish mackerel, take out the internal organs, and remove the head, fins and tail. We selected two-day-old pieces to make dumplings and stewed the rest, which was also very fresh.

  2. It is very laborious to process the fish. My mother-in-law has been doing it all the time. She slices off the fish on both sides and takes out the fish bones.
