Home cooking is the source of Chinese cuisine and the basis of local cuisine. Ordinary people can’t do three meals a day without home-cooked dishes, which are delicious and ready for dinner. This salted fish was given by a friend. It has a very tempting name, called one-night stand fish. The meat is very tender, but it is salty. I soaked it in clear water for one night. The salty fish is just right.

Tips:
1. Different salted fish have different saltiness, so the time for soaking the salted fish depends on the saltiness of the fish;
2. Because it is salted fish, just add some dark soy sauce to color. Adding sugar can improve the flavor. You can leave it out if you don't like it.
