In the northeastern border of China, nature has paid special attention to it. There are rushing rivers, quiet wetlands and Sanjiang Plain formed by the confluence of rivers and lakes. With a developed water system, there are naturally abundant aquatic products, especially fish resources. According to rough statistics, there are as many as 50 species of fish with edible value and high yield in many rivers and lakes in Heilongjiang. Of course, no one can remember so many names at once, so the locals made up a jingle of the most delicious and favorite fish in the simplest way, called "Three Flowers, Five Loves and Eighteen Sons"
There is a certain explanation for using "flowers" and "Luo" instead of "zi" to refer to fish names. For example, three of them: onychomycosis, bream and bream, which refer to mandarin fish (Guangxi and Tonggui), flower bone and bream respectively.
The representative dishes of mandarin fish are the classic sweet and sour mandarin fish of Subang cuisine and the stinky mandarin fish of Huizhou cuisine. Flower fish has thick bones and few thorns. Steamed braise in soy sauce is delicious and is an excellent edible freshwater fish. Crucian carp flower. Bream is a general term for a large class of fish, including bream (fáng) distributed all over the country and bream (the famous Wuchang fish) native to Liangzi Lake.
According to the above information, we can see that these three kinds of fish are delicious and are one of the main edible fish, which can be found in several major cuisines and deserve it. What's the point of five Luo?
Zheluo and Farrow in the five elements refer to Zheluo and Triceratops. These two kinds of fish are widely distributed and can be found in most parts of the country. As for yarrow, Luo Hu and Tongluo, they are all small fish in the Northeast Basin, which can be called treasures in the water, delicate and delicious, and they also have a feature, that is, they breed quickly. The Chinese character "Luo" just has the meaning of communication, and it is appropriate to list these five kinds as five Luo.
As for the eighteen sons, I personally think that the word "eighteen" here is an adjective, not a numeral. It is a general term for many different kinds of fish in Northeast China, but it is not the main fish, because few people can correspond eighteen sons with various scientific names one by one, and many of them have different versions. But some of them can still find the corresponding fish, for example, the island is white fish, Qilifu is sturgeon, Gayazi is eel (S m 4 ng), grass roots are grass carp, carp muscles are carp, catfish balls are catfish, and snakehead sticks are snakehead.
After reading more, you will find that once the names of these fish are added with "Zi", "Guaizi" or "Qiu Zi", they are grounded with the Northeast dialect, which makes native people feel cordial and even evokes an appetite hidden in their hearts.
According to legend, Fu, the ancestor of mankind, invented the fishing net and taught the ancient ancestors fishing skills. According to the archaeological findings of the Neolithic site in Yongji County, Jilin Province, there are bone hooks and net drops, which shows that in ancient times, people in Northeast China have used primitive fishing gear to fish.
During the Song Dynasty, the once prosperous Qidan people gathered on the ice of Songhua River to dig holes for fishing. If a guest happens to arrive at this time, the Khitans will put the guest's tent on the ice, thin the ice with iron in the tent, and the host will accompany the guest to watch the fish swim around in the water under the ice for fun. When it's time to eat, break the ice again and let the fish jump out of the ice. Eat now. This fish tastes very delicious.
During the Qing Dynasty, the royal family of the Qing Dynasty set up a "Sacrifice to Wula" in Jilin, which was responsible for supervising the collection and capture of river frogs, pearls and precious fish as tributes to the royal family. In modern times, the fishing industry in Northeast China has become a famous local feature. For example, the annual winter fishing in Chagan Lake has driven tourists from all over the country to visit here and taste authentic and delicious fish.
So in the northeast, you must eat fish, which is healthy and healthy, especially in this summer when Beijing is going south to sauna!
