This fish ball has always been my favorite from snacks to growing up, and it's the top of the list of favorite foods when I was a kid! But only during the holidays can you eat this kind of "white rich beauty"! When I was young, I used to eat well cooked, pour some sesame oil, sprinkle some chopped green onion, and put a lot of vinegar. The conditions allow me to skip meals and only eat fish balls.

This fish ball is embodied by the fish itself, the texture is very soft, and it is not exaggerated at all, it is very suitable for infants and young children. It is soft and white, delicious and no fishy, pure quality and pure flavor. This fish ball was learned from an aunt who made fish balls especially delicious in my hometown, with a little modification.

Attention! ! ! This is a very ethereal and soft girl, not the kind of Q bombs sold outside! "

Ethereal Fish Ball

1. Cut obliquely from the fish tail to the fish bone, and then push it along the fish bone toward the fish head to slice off the fish. 🌻Tips: In this step, you can ask the fish seller to help you when you buy fish.

2. Rinse the fish with running water for three minutes.

3. Start to scrape the fish lightly with a knife. Thin fish paste will appear on the back of the knife, collect it. If you encounter thorns, the thorns will stand up when you scrape them, just pull them out, which is very convenient. The fish paste made by this method will never have small spines. The premise is to scrape gently, not a piece of meat.

4. 🌻Tips: It is easy to scrape off, and the resistance is getting bigger and bigger at the back. I scraped a piece of fish for 10 minutes.

5. Don't forget, this fish bone can be scraped off again.

6. The shaved fish paste is very delicate and has no thorns.

7. Add a little cooking wine to get rid of fishy. Then add the green onion and ginger water, add slowly, add a little water and stir evenly, and then add another time. The final ratio of fish paste to water is about 1:1. If you are a novice and fear that the amount of water is too large, the fish balls will not form, it is recommended to start the experiment with fish paste 3: water 1. The success rate will be much higher. 🌻Tips: As for the mixing tool, it can be a hand, a chopstick, or a manual whisk. I used an electric whisk for 15 minutes.

8. It's relatively rare and unformed, it doesn't matter. Slowly add salt to it to get stronger, and stir it by hand for at least 15 minutes. After adding salt, you will feel more and more resistance on your hands. At this time, if the manual stirring is too tiring, you can add cornstarch and egg white appropriately, which can help the fish balls shape. 🌻Tips: Adding salt is to make the fish puree slowly form. If you are under 1 year old, do not add salt, just add starch to make the fish puree form.

9. Try it, the fish paste can squeeze out a ball instead of a pool of meat.

10. Put clean water in the pot and bring it to a boil. Turn the heat to a low temperature and reduce to about 65-95 degrees. Keep it at this temperature. When the water does not boil, start squeezing the fish balls. Slide your thumb on the tiger’s mouth to remove the fish paste. Grind it flat so that the squeezed out fish balls will be smooth, then squeeze upwards and pick up the fish balls with a spoon in your other hand. 🌻Tips: The fish balls were picked up with a stainless steel spoon at the beginning, but the fish balls did not come off completely and would stick to the spoon. Take it off with a ceramic spoon! Ride the spoon on the fish ball and shake it gently in a pot of cold water, and the fish ball will fall off on its own.

11. When the fish balls see white, you can use the back of the spoon to gently push them. If the surface of the water is boiling, add a little cold water, and always keep the temperature between 65-95 degrees to make the fish balls fresh and tender. Avoid high heat (over 100 degrees) and the fish balls will be rough. Lose tenderness. When the fish balls float on the surface of the water, they are white, and when there are small bubbles rising on the side of the pot, they can be taken out and soaked in a warm water basin to prevent dehydration, de-tenderness and discoloration. After cooling, put it in the refrigerator with water (not quick-freeze).

12. The prepared fish balls can be made into fish ball soup or fish ball noodles with fish soup boiled with fish bones. Homemade fish balls are very tender and slippery, and you will fall in love after you taste them! Especially suitable for small babies. 🌻Tips: 1. Steps 1-3 above are about how to scrape the fish paste. If you have a wall-breaking machine, just put the ginger in and beat it together. These 3 steps can be omitted. 2. This one is very ethereal and soft, which is not the same as the special Q-bomb fish balls sold outside. 3. The remaining fish bones and fish heads are delicious in soup and braised!
