Suancaiyu is a spicy and sour Sichuanese Fish 'Soup' with pickled mustard greens, a.k.a. suancai. It's hugely popular these days here in China, so we figured it might be a nice one to learn.While this isn't quick and easy, it's not exactly overly involved either. There's a few different version of this dish - there's those that smother it with chili oil, there's those that amp up the sourness with lemon, and there's those with a drinkable soup. We personally enjoy that last version, so that's what this recipe is.Written recipe over here on reddit over on /r/cooking:https://www.reddit.com/r/Cooking/comments/9unu3v/recipe_suan_cai_yu_sichuanese_poached_fish_with/https://www.reddit.com/r/China/comments/9ukie9/recipe_suancai_yu_sichuanese_poached_fish_with/?And check out our Patreon if you'd like to support the project!www.patreon.com/ChineseCookingDemystifiedOutro Music: "Add And" by Broke For Free https://soundcloud.com/broke-for-freeABOUT US-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Learn how to cook real deal, authentic Chinese food!
