If you watch the process of frying Bama oil fish, you will understand why the locals call it oil fish. There is a local proverb "one fried fish, ten smelled fish".

Bama oil fish has thin bones, and eating Bama oil fish does not spit bones.

Bama oily fish is rich in fat, so local residents do not add cooking oil at all when frying oily fish: when the oily fish is slowly fried in a pot, the fish oil will slowly seep out of the body.

The fried fish should be arranged neatly, with the first side fried until the scales turn yellow and the second side turned over.

Culture method Bama oil fish has very high requirements on water quality, so it can't be cultured artificially, so the yield is very low. 1982 The Science and Technology Commission of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region conducted a culture experiment of Bama oil fish in Jiazhuan Township, but it was unsuccessful for various reasons. Since 2004, the Bama County Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau and the College of Animal Science and Technology of Guangxi University have started the cultivation experiment of Bama oil fish, and made great progress. Once the experiment is successful, Bama oil fish will have a broad market prospect.

In 2004, when Cheng Guangping, an associate professor of Guangxi University, just started to study Bama oil fish, the Bama oil fish in the pond was flooded and the experiment was forced to end. Cheng Guangping said that the artificial propagation of Bama oil fish in Nanning has been successful, but the artificial propagation of Bama oil fish has not been successful, but it has made progress-although the sexual maturity of male Bama oil fish is not known yet, the spawning situation of female Bama oil fish has been mastered.
