What kinds of aquatic products are there in Japan?

This is a bluefin tuna caught in Okinawa, Japan.

The smallest bluefin tuna is 35-40 kg, and the largest can exceed 200 kg.

Bluefin tuna can be divided into naked belly, middle belly and big belly according to different parts. The taste and price of different parts are obviously different!

Big belly (big belly)

Big belly (also called big belly) refers to the part with the most fat in the tuna belly, which is also the most expensive part. It has a smooth taste, rich fat flavor, clear snow pattern, pink color, tender meat and unique flavor. In many Japanese food stores, the big belly is also called Otoro. Due to the high price, some low-end Japanese stores generally do not purchase goods.

midriff

The middle diaphragm (also called the middle diaphragm) is the middle and high-grade part of tuna, which is mainly distributed in the abdomen and back of tuna. The fat content is moderate, the fat tastes sweet and soft, and the fish is slightly sour. It tastes better when mixed with the bare parts.

Tuna Sushi (Naked)

The most common part of tuna is usually marinated in soy sauce and then made into sushi. Naked body is the part with the reddest color, the least fat and the cheapest price, which is mainly distributed on the back of tuna. Although there is no fat meat, this part of the meat is very solid and chewy, and the unique light and slightly sour taste of tuna is also the most prominent in the exposed part. Naked is synonymous with tuna in ordinary sushi restaurants.

tuna

Because Japan likes the delicacy of tuna very much, and the production of wild tuna is extremely limited, bluefin tuna caught in a big room is particularly precious.

2. Southern Tuna

Southern bluefin tuna, also known as Indian tuna in Japan, is about 2.5m long and distributed in subtropical and temperate waters within 60 degrees south latitude of the southern hemisphere. Rich in oil, it is also suitable for sushi. The season of southern bluefin tuna is summer in the northern hemisphere. In the season when Pacific bluefin tuna and Atlantic bluefin tuna are not so fat, southern bluefin tuna only shows shiny fat.

3. Salmon

China people must order salmon sashimi or salmon sushi when they enter Japanese restaurants. In fact, in Japan, people seldom ate salmon before. The price of common salmon is cheaper than that of Japanese fish, and the technology of ocean transportation and food insurance was not developed enough in the past. After imported salmon is shipped to Japan, it is considered that the freshness can not meet the standard of sashimi, so salmon is rarely used in high-end restaurants. However, it is undeniable that ordinary salmon is orange and white, fat and tender, and the price is relatively low. It is also very popular in Japan now. In Japanese food stores in China, salmon sashimi is very popular, and it is thought that it can bring a very satisfying taste.

China is the country that consumes the most salmon in the world, ahead of the United States. At present, at least 10 countries in the world export salmon to China. These imported salmon are mainly farmed salmon.

Norway has been breeding salmon since 1970s, and the main consumer country is Japan. But Japanese people don't like salmon very much, and more importantly, they are afraid of parasites in salmon. At that time, Japan was self-sufficient in marine products such as tuna. With the continuous efforts of Norway, it was not until 1980 that Japan imported the first salmon from Norway. So far, salmon is still an unpopular raw fish in Japan.

In addition, in order to ensure the safety of raw food, the Japanese also adopt the method of freezing and cooking raw food, because this can effectively avoid infection with parasites. According to the current scientific reports, anisole can survive for less than 24 hours in a low temperature environment below minus 20 degrees. That is to say, it can kill parasites by freezing at a low temperature below -20℃ for more than 24 hours. Therefore, countries have also formulated relevant safety standards. According to relevant EU laws, raw salmon should be stored at -20℃ for 7 days or at -35℃ for 15 hours before eating. In Japan: -20℃, frozen for more than 24 hours (instructed by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare). United States: -35℃, frozen for more than 15 hours, or -20℃, frozen for more than a week.

Of course, all the salmon sold in the market now are farmed artificially, although the parasites of salmon cultured in seawater are much less than those in the wild. However, for the sake of safety, Bian Xiao suggested that it is best to carry out low-temperature insecticide according to the standards of the European Union or the United States as the highest safety factor. In addition, when ordering salmon sashimi in the restaurant, you should pay attention to the sanitary environment in the operation room and whether there is disinfection equipment, such as purple light. The main function of violet light is to achieve sterilization by emitting ultraviolet rays, which is especially necessary in workshops where seafood is eaten raw.

4. Salmon (Salmon)

Of course, there are many kinds of salmon in Japan, the most expensive of which is salmon. The Japanese call it "magic salmon", and the market price is as high as several thousand yuan a kilogram, which is dozens of times that of ordinary salmon. Salmon refers to salmon with abnormal reproductive organs. Its output is very rare, and it can only be caught from one ten thousandth to two,1October to1February. Salmon seed is the most precious kind of salmon, and its fat content is 20-30% higher than that of ordinary salmon, which makes its meat extremely tender, sweet and silky.

Salmon pheasants are mainly produced in Hokkaido. The local salmon pheasant sashimi is a famous local dish, which uses fresh and frozen salmon. There is a reason for this, because salmon contains a lot of fat. Frozen and sliced to make sashimi. Put it in your mouth, the fat melts slowly in your mouth, and it tastes sweet.

5. Cherry blossom trout

Another example is cherry blossom trout, which is also known as Japanese salmon. Its belly is slightly pink and orange, and its meat is moist and rich in oil. It is an advanced fish among salmon. As the name implies, it once again migrates from the high seas to the Sea of Japan when cherry blossoms are in full bloom every year. At this time, the meat quality of cherry trout is the most plump and firm, and tasting cherry trout in spring has become the main way to enjoy spring. Because the belly of cherry trout is rich in meat and fat, it can be used to make sashimi and enjoy the greasy taste.

6. May trout

The scientific name of may trout is Oncorhynchus masou ishikawae, which belongs to a subspecies of cherry trout and is mainly distributed in the inland sea coast around Seto (central and western Japan). The body length can reach about 40 cm, which is silvery white with red spots on the back. The best season is from winter to the next spring, suitable for sashimi and sushi.

7. Trout Interface (Imperial Salmon)

8. Salmon roe (ぃくら)

Salmon seeds are colorful, round and full like pearls, crystal clear and mouth watering. When you put this fish egg in your mouth, you realize that the sweetness and seawater smell of this small fish egg will never be forgotten when you crush it with your tongue and palate.

The salmon roe we often eat is actually taken from salmon, also called dog salmon. Dog salmon meat is coarse and low in fat, so it tastes bad. Welcome to join the super foodie group of Kitchen Shadow Food (add WeChat xiaotudou2002 to apply for membership). But its fish eggs are large and brightly colored, so they are more valuable than other salmon eggs. Most dog salmon are salted and sold to Japan under the name ikura. In addition, the caviar of pink salmon is also quite popular.

The most common way to eat salmon roe is probably roe sushi and mother-in-law. The glutinous rice and q-bomb of fish seeds really make people want to stop.

9. bonito

In order to buy a new bonito, throw it on the chopping block and get a small prize. As early as the edo period in Japan, the price of fresh bonito was surprisingly high. Nowadays, bonito is also called "small tuna", which is deeply loved by people because of its tender meat and light taste. The bonito meat in May is sweet, and it is suitable for eating in the form of half-cooked, so as to truly taste the sweetness of bonito. The bonito meat was sliced by smoking with straw and then lightly salted with soy sauce to make sushi, which gave the fish an indescribable smoky flavor and a unique taste with moderate fat content.

10, Yixian

The scientific name is Bajie, also known as Bai Buzhen and Hua Yanzai. It is mainly produced in Tripterygium wilfordii, Wakayama and Cypress Island. Its typical feature is the pattern on the back near the tail. The best tasting period is from autumn to spring. Its fat content is slightly higher than that of bonito, and its taste is very close to the midriff of bluefin tuna. It is widely cultivated in Japan.

1 1

Oriental foxtail, commonly known as fried fish and foreign fish, is an economic edible fish. Its body length is about 1 m, its body is spindle-shaped and its teeth are very sharp, so it is named "Yinxian". Autumn and winter are the best seasons for tasting. Sashimi and sushi are very delicious.

12, stubborn

Known as small tuna, it is about 60 cm long. Also known as "medicine is more immortal", "Zong Taixian", "flat medicine is more immortal" and "Ping Taixian". It is about 60 cm long, with a conical head, a short snout, a thin and powerful tail handle, a raised ridge on each side and a crescent-shaped tail fin. The back is bluish black and the abdomen is light gray. There are irregular black stripes above the lateral line. Because this kind of fish often gather together and make noise on the water while preying on small fish, it is called "multi-fish", which means "gathering people to make trouble and make noise".

In order to ensure freshness, it is often eaten around the place of origin. Sashimi and sushi are delicious. The main season is autumn and winter. When it is cold, the fat content is high and the taste is no less than tuna.

Two categories: white fish series

1, fish (ブリ)

Anchovies, Zheng Ping and swordfish are called the top three heavyweight ingredients in top sushi. But it is hard to imagine that the names of these three kinds of fish actually happened on a fish, and there are far more than three names. This is because the growth cycle of anchovies is relatively long. Although the adult anchovies over 80cm are called "ブリ", in the long years before they grow to 80cm, they will be given different names in different periods, with a total of about hundreds of nicknames. This kind of fish with different names in different periods of life history is called "raw fish" in Japan, which means "getting ahead". It means that the older a person is, the more his address will change with his official position.

Generally speaking, only adult fish with a body length of more than 80 cm can be called anchovy. This kind of fish is rich in fat and very tender, and tastes good compared with tuna.

2. Zheng Ping

Zheng Ping means that the length exceeds 1m, and the taste is refreshing. Besides sashimi and sushi, Xijing Roast is also a good choice. It is a top edible fish, and everything is in perfect balance. The catch in Zheng Ping is very small, so if you happen to meet the goods in Japanese shops, you must not miss it.

3. Between eight o'clock

The word "eight" can be seen on the front of the fish head, hence the name. The best eating season for large fish with a body length of more than 2m is early autumn. Its breast meat is very fat and delicious, and its taste is quite rich and mellow. From the meat quality and taste, bamboo is closer to anchovy. The most classic ways to eat are of course sashimi and sushi.

4. Cold

In addition to the above three kinds, the cold meat caught in winter must also be mentioned. Cooling fish is known as the king of preserved fish. As a migratory fish, anchovy has accumulated a lot of fat in order to resist the cold, and at the same time, because of fighting the wind and waves all the way, its meat quality is very tight. Therefore, the quality of cooled fish is very high, rich in oil, and the meat is tender and sweet. In winter, authentic Japanese restaurants will never lack the shadow of "preserved fish". At this time, the anchovy fish is sweet and rich in fat and cream, which can be melted on the tip of the tongue at the entrance and become the top ingredient of the season.

See the cold in the ice

Because local fishermen still use traditional fixed nets to fish, the daily catch is only a few hundred, and the price is several times that of ordinary fish. It is said that Bing Jian has used this fishing method called "fixed net fishing method" for more than 400 years. In order to lay eggs, the cold fish from the south swam to the fishing port of Bingjian and were caught ashore. The cold fish at this time is just delicious, very delicious. The fresh-keeping method of cold fish caught ashore will also be treated according to the above-mentioned fresh-keeping method, and the cold fish immediately put into ice water is in a state of temporary death, thus maintaining the freshness of the fish to the maximum extent. No irrelevant personnel are allowed to enter the fish market of Bingjian, and ordinary guests can only watch fishing operations or auctions from the aisle on the second floor of the market. Every cold fish certified as "cold fish frozen in ice" will be issued a sales certificate, which can only be used once, affixed to the fish, put into a special blue box and transported to various places.

5, platinum gun (swordfish)

In fact, platinum gun has little to do with tuna, mainly flag fish, which is extremely like fat. It was once introduced in Weibo, a Duff fish in Li Ang. It is a fish at the top of the food chain, rich in oil and high in mercury. In Hemingway's novel The Old Man and the Sea, the marlin caught by the old man is this kind of fish.

The meat of swordfish used to be white, and the fish in Japan is called swordfish. In Japan, there is no platinum gun. If you have to take out the platinum gun, it's only swordfish. Swordfish is a kind of fish that swims very fast in the sea, and its top speed can even reach 130 km. Swordfish's mouth accounts for one third of the whole body. Its main food is all kinds of fish and squid. It weighs about 100 kg and is about 2 meters long. When swordfish swims at high speed, its tail can generate great impetus, and its extremely hard upper jaw can easily pierce a 50 cm thick wooden boat.

Sanlu Chong Fishing Ground in Kesennuma City, Japan is a natural fishing ground known as one of the four largest fishing grounds in the world, where swordfish are abundant. Many restaurants in China also sell oily fish as platinum guns to deceive friends who don't know the truth. I think those who are lucky enough to have eaten the "platinum gun" will remember the word "flowing oil"!

6. Spot

Banjia, commonly known as Pingping Zi, oily fish and crucian carp, is the most labor-consuming and time-consuming ingredient for making sushi side dishes. The umami taste of grouper will soon be lost, so it is necessary to stimulate the umami taste of fish by pickling. This process requires the control of fish and spices, which is difficult to do without rich experience. Spotted fish is a very popular sushi ingredient. At the beginning of July, a few new sons began to appear on the market. At this time, the sushi industry in Tokyo began to surge, and sushi professionals tried their best to compete for this expensive new son.

9. saury

Saury is the most sensitive fish to freshness. In our country, saury is usually baked or fried with salt. Even in Japan, few people dare to challenge saury for sashimi. If you want to eat autumn knife sashimi, you must seize the bleak autumn wind in September, when the taste of fish is the strongest. Under the skillful cooking of the chef, saury was cut into fish slices more than an inch long. It is very attractive, with silver light on one side and pink like cherry blossoms on the other. The entrance is soft and sweet, with a special taste. Usually, saury sushi can only be tasted along the coast from Shima Peninsula in Mie Prefecture to Kumano Beach in Wakayama Prefecture.

It is a high-grade ingredient in Japanese sashimi and sushi dishes and is highly respected.

15, Jin Kun

The Japanese bamboo pod fish, officially called "Japanese bamboo pod fish", is written as "real fish" in Japanese characters, but it is usually written as "fish" or pen name "ぁじ" on the menu.

2 1, silver belt gun

22. mackerel with blue spots (サワラ)

Blue-spotted mackerel, a fish with a blue-gray back and a silvery white abdomen, is covered with blue-black spots. Although mackerel is abundant in spring, the Japanese believe that mackerel is really delicious in late autumn and after winter. This is because mackerel is a migratory fish, which goes south collectively in late autumn every year and overwinters downstream in subtropical or temperate waters. At this time, mackerel will get fatter and fatter because of the cold weather, while mackerel in the middle of winter and early spring will get fatter and fatter. .

23. Needlefish (サヨリ)

Needlefish, also known as Japanese herring (zhēn), is slender in shape, and the most notable feature is the tip of its mouth. Needlefish is a typical whitebait with a light and refreshing taste. This fish needs no other treatment. It is best to knead it directly into sushi, so as to preserve its delicacy to the greatest extent.

This kind of fish has a high demand for freshness. Fresh fish is made into sashimi directly without processing, and the meat taste is light and natural.

Although leucorrhea can be seen all year round in China, most Japanese in Japan only follow the seasonal diet in summer and autumn.

Although saury that lays eggs after autumn can be caught in large quantities, its taste and taste are not as good as that in summer.

28. Sea eel

Compared with the familiar star eel and river eel, the taste of sea eel is more elegant and profound. Generally speaking, the sea eels produced locally in Japan are all from Awaji Bay in the Seto Inland Sea, and their skins and fish bones are soft, so they are a good choice for cooking.

There are countless tiny and sharp fishbones in the sea eel, so the traditional cooking technology of cutting bones must be adopted. The so-called bone cutting is to cut a knife almost every millimeter on the meat of the sea eel, instead of cutting off the skin. After this treatment, the fishbone will be finely chopped, and it will not sting the tongue when eating, nor will it feel uncomfortable. There is a Japanese proverb that eels should be cut 25 times an inch, that is, an inch-long eel slice should be cut 25 times, which shows how exquisite this treatment is.
