When the chef heard that the emperor had arrived, he was very happy and did not dare to neglect. He not only worked hard on the taste, but also burned the fish into the shape of a squirrel with its head held high and its tail stuck high. After eating it, it was greatly appreciated, and the "squirrel fish" became famous. Nowadays, squirrel fish are mostly made of mandarin fish, with red sauce, crisp outside and tender inside, sweet and sour taste, full of color and flavor, which makes people drool.
