Tips:

1. Crucian carp must be fried until slightly yellow, and then boiled, to make a thick white soup. Moreover, the nutrients of fish meat must be easily absorbed by the human body after being dissolved by the oil.
2. The best way to fry the fish is to use a non-stick pan. When frying, heat the pan with hot oil. Don't rush to move the fish after putting it in the pan. Once the fish is almost fried, shake the pan and when the fish can slide, Turn it over and fry.
3. Milky soup is the color formed after fat is emulsified in water. The more fat the fish, the whiter the soup will be. Therefore, the fish must first fry the skin and the fat on the surface, and then boil it over a high fire, the fat will emulsify and whiten.
