Salt and Pepper Noodle Fish

At the beginning of spring, in addition to small white shrimps, there are also noodle fish in our seasonal aquatic products. The noodle fish is soft, tender and delicious. The fish bones are also soft and you can’t tell they have bones when you eat them. Today I’m going to make salt and pepper noodle fish.

During our local Chinese Valentine's Day, we eat a fried product called noodle fish, which is to put very soft fermented dough into a fish-shaped mold and then fry it in an oil pan. Some families don't have molds, so they just roll out the fermented dough into pancakes, cut them into rectangles, and fry them in a pan. The fried noodle fish is very chewy and delicious because of the addition of a little salt, but it is not as soft as the fried dough sticks. This year, my mother-in-law also fried a lot, so I chose a few harder ones and made this dish.

Growing up by the sea, I heard and witnessed my fellow villagers fishing. In the early days, fishing tools were backward, and three types of fishing methods were commonly used: thin nets, long-distance nets and hanging sub-nets. Both thin nets and long-distance nets need to wait until the temperature of the valley rain rises and fish come ashore before going into the sea. The only way is to hang sub-nets and set up before the Spring Festival to make preparations for lowering the nets. Long bamboo poles are driven into the turbulent sea water, and the mesh is as dense as mosquito net cloth, and woven into long trumpet-shaped bags. The main objects of salvage are grasshopper shrimps as small as mosquitoes. After the Spring Festival, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you can eat the first batch of seafood they harvest. Judging from the seafood caught, there are always a lot of noodles and fish. Some of these fish are caught alone in the net, and some are picked out from grasshoppers and shrimps. I just remember that the noodle fish is short and less than three inches long. The fish body is soft and transparent, with only two eyes and a few rows of small dots, which is eye-catching. The reason why it is called noodle fish is because when it is served in a basin, it looks like piled white noodles. Use it to stew tofu, hook eggs, or cook it plain. No matter how you eat it, it is delicious. The high-quality early seafood known as peach blossom shrimp (small shrimp) can only be released after the Grain Rain period and fishing with thin nets and long nets begins. Therefore, when it comes to the first fresh food after the beginning of spring, only noodle fish ranks first. I have eaten a lot of seafood, but I have never tasted it as the first fresh food in spring like noodle fish. Noodle fish is the common name of Weihai, and it is also called whitebait in Baidu.
