Yunlin Aquaculture Travels
Hi I��m Michella and this is my friend Baptiste.
Hi everybody.
Today we��re in Kouhu of Yunlin County in search of
their famous aquaculture, starting with clams. Shall
we?
Let��s go.
A small seaside town in Yunlin County, Kouhu is known
mainly for their clams, mullet roe, and oysters.
And...here we go! Two and a half...
Two and a half is better than nothing and a half.
My quiet friend Baptiste agrees. Did you know that
clam farming was introduced by the Japanese during
the occupation? Now most of the clam supply in Taiwan
comes from this area.
Wa! See? Practice makes perfect! Actually, I cheated.
Baptiste helped. Shhh...
These reddish orange sunbathing beauties are mullet
roe. Loaded with cholesterol but a coveted delicacy
nonetheless. The reason why there��s so much mullet
roe in Kouhu is because when mullet migrates through
the Taiwan Strait in the winter, they are egg bearing
and perfect for harvest by the time the reach this
area.
This is one way to eat mullet roe: lightly toasted
over the flame of sorghum wine.
I think it��s really yummy and it takes away the bitterness.
And the third pearl of Kouhu aquaculture is the oyster.
These are oyster farms whose products are not only
harvested and sold as food locally, but its baby oysters
are sold to be grown elsewhere in Taiwan as well.
One reason why oysters and clams thrive in Kouhu is
that there are no factories nearby to pollute the
water.
As the sun sets beautifully over the water, Baptiste
and I talk about the day. It looks like the clams
really opened him up.
I remember that I played with clams when I was younger,
but not really digging for them, so that was my first
time. Pretty interesting.
Clams, mullet roe, oysters. What a feast not to miss!
