According to historical records, the creator was a Blind Sichuan chef in the early years of the Republic of China. Because of its unique flavor, it was deeply loved by diners. Later, it gradually developed and expanded, and the smell of fish became one of the traditional flavors of Sichuan cuisine.
Common ingredients such as pork, offal, tofu, eggplant, etc. are all suitable for fish flavoring, and both meat and vegetable are suitable. "
