Crispy pomfret, which originated from the Yangtze River Reservoir in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, is one of the geographical symbols of Zhongshan City. It is a famous and special aquatic product that uses mineral water from the reservoir, feeds concentrated feed and intensively cultivates living water. It is named for its firm, crisp and crisp meat.
It should be noted that the so-called "crispy carp" is not a new species, but still belongs to the grass carp in the biological sense, belonging to the genus Ctenopharyngodon of CYPRINIDAE. It is just an ordinary grass carp, which has special biological characteristics (such as the meat is not easy to cook) and has been artificially changed.
