Chaozhou Guantang Raw Fish

Food heritage & tasting

Chaozhou Guantang raw fish is a unique seafood delicacy from the Chaoshan region, originating from the Guantang area of Chaozhou. It uses freshly caught sea fish from the same day, finely sliced, and mixed with ginger shreds, minced garlic, chili, soy sauce, crushed peanuts, and other seasonings, making the fish slices tender, smooth, and rich in flavor with a slight spiciness. The characteristic of raw fish lies in its "fresh and original taste," preserving the natural sweetness of the fish while incorporating the unique seasoning techniques of Chaoshan people, resulting in a rich layering of flavors. Whether for family gatherings, festive banquets, or tourists visiting Chaoshan, a plate of Guantang raw fish offers the most authentic taste of Chaoshan seafood culture. Chaozhou Guantang raw fish not only emphasizes freshness but also slicing skills and seasoning combinations, so local restaurants and seafood shops pay great attention to the preparation process.
