Smoked Herring

Shanghai smoked fish is a special traditional dish with delicious color and fragrance. This dish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It has a fresh and sweet taste. It is a must-have cooked dish for people in Jiangnan during the New Year. Although Shanghai smoked fish has a name for smoked, it is not actually smoked. It is first marinated in green onion and turmeric wine to remove the smell, then deep-fried, and finally immersed in the marinade.
