How to pickle authentic stinky fish?

Preparation materials: one mandarin fish, a proper amount of stinky tofu, plastic food bags and fresh-keeping boxes.

1. Wash mandarin fish and cut it from abdomen to back.

2. Cut both sides of mandarin fish obliquely with a flower knife, and don't cut off the fish.

3. Move the fish from the chopping board to a slightly larger plate, pick out 5-6 pieces of stinky tofu with clean chopsticks and put them on the fish, and evenly spread the stinky tofu on the mandarin fish.

4. Prepare a plastic food bag, put the fish into the food bag together, squeeze out the air in the bag by hand, and tie the bag tightly.

5. Put the mandarin fish in the food bag into a fresh-keeping box and put it in the refrigerator for 7 days.

After 6 or 7 days, take out the homemade stinky fish, rinse the stinky tofu left on the fish thoroughly with clear water, and then cook it.
