Bo Lake, a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction, has a lake area of more than 1,600 square kilometers. It is the largest inland lake in my country. Standing by the lake, the vast lake is endless. It is a sea, so it is called the West Sea of China. It is sparsely populated and far away from pollution. It is a very rare piece of pure land on earth. Not only the scenery of lakes and mountains is invincible, but also the food here is unique, which is very nostalgic.
The water area of Bosten Lake is vast, the water quality is good, and the bait is abundant, which is very suitable for the growth and reproduction of fish. According to a local friend, there are 32 kinds of freshwater fish species that are artificially stocked and naturally bred, including pond male fish, carp, grass carp, silver carp, and red perch, growing in Bo Lake. It is the largest fishery production base in Xinjiang and the largest organic fish in China. Production base. Nine aquatic species such as snakehead, silver carp, bighead carp, carp, pond male carp, red perch, crucian carp, green shrimp, grass carp and 100,000 hectares of water in the Great Lakes have passed the national organic fish product and origin certification respectively from Bosten Lake. For Xinjiang cuisine, if you only talk about fish, Bohu is definitely the top dish. When you come to Bohu, you must try the local whole fish feast.
There is no uniform standard for the whole fish banquet in Bohu. Each restaurant, farmhouse, and hotel has its own characteristics. Because Bohu has many kinds of fish, even the so-called whole fish banquet cannot be served in one meal. Just eat all kinds of fish, so each has its own emphasis. We stayed here for a total of four days during our trip to Bosten Lake. We also ate fish feasts several times. If we want to say that the most impressive thing is the hot pot whole fish feast at the Dahekou Scenic Area of Bosten Lake on December 27. .
Yufan, as a native of Chongqing, naturally likes hot pot very much, especially in the northern winter. You can make up your mind. Outside is the freezing Bosten Lake (ten to twenty degrees below zero), but inside the window is hot air. The steaming whole fish hot pot, just the atmosphere is intoxicating. Of course, this whole fish hot pot is not an ordinary hot pot. Even if you pay a high price in the mainland, you can’t eat it. These fish are all organic and wild fish. The quality of the water and tap water in the city is much better.
This is the wild organic crucian carp from Bohu. The meat is tender and nutritious. Bosten Lake is formed by the collection of snowmelt water from Tianshan Mountains. The water quality is clear and clean. The climate in the lake area is humid and the light conditions are good. It is sunny all year round, the climate is dry and less rainy, and the four seasons are distinct. It is especially suitable for the growth and reproduction of wild fish like crucian carp.
Red perch is nicknamed "Wudaohei" in Bosten Lake because it has 5 black spots across the back of its body. In fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that there are usually 6-9 bands, of which 5 are wider and more obvious. As for the deficit of the red perch, it probably stems from its bright and eye-catching pelvic fins. It has a flattened body, long oval shape, and a thin tail peduncle. And to brush the hot pot is very fresh and tender.
Bohu grass carp is a product of China's national geographical indication, and it is also a special product of Bohu. It is a pure organic freshwater fish without any pollution. Because it often has to fight against wind, waves and floods, it has stronger vitality than fish in still water, and its meat is tender and chewy. Naturally grown without fishy smell. According to a local friend, this fish has high active protein, is rich in unsaturated fatty acids that the human body lacks, and tastes delicious.
Pond male fish is also a characteristic fish of Bosten Lake. It is a year-old fish, rarely can live for more than two years, and the adult fish is relatively small. Red perch and Chinese mitten crab have all passed the "organic fish" certification of the State Environmental Protection Administration. According to the staff, the pond male fish is native to Japan, also known as cucumber fish and nian fish. Its body is translucent and has a special cucumber flavor. It is edible as a whole, rich in amino acids, and has delicious meat.
The picture above is a carp from Bohu Lake, a special product of Bosten Lake, and a product of China's National Geographical Indication. The clear and wide lake water of Bosten Lake has created the excellent quality characteristics of Bosten Lake. Bohu carp has a slender body, a flat abdomen, golden scales, bright body color, light red caudal and anal fins, fresh and tender meat, delicious and mellow taste, and can be blanched for a few seconds in the hot pot to make it more delicious.
Bohu black fish, I believe many people like it, the fish is ferocious, but it has few fish bones, delicious meat, and rich nutritional value. It contains higher protein than chicken and beef. I won’t talk about the specific attack effect, but hot pot Really very welcome. In addition to the above-mentioned ingredients, there are also some beef, mutton, lotus root, yam, enoki mushroom, shiitake mushroom and green vegetables, etc. It is called the whole fish hot pot, which is the name chosen by Yu Fan, because the theme of this meal is the fish in Bohu. , there are not only fish fillets, but also fish roe, fish balls, etc., which are really good. Even the hot bottom of this hot pot is very delicious. If you have the opportunity, I suggest you try it.
