Dongshan Pond Loach
The pond loach from Wu County is mainly produced in the areas of East Taihu Lake such as Hengjing, Puzhuang, Ducun, and Dongshan. They are caught when the rapeseed flowers bloom in spring, with an annual yield of about 25 tons. Pond loach has tender and delicious meat, rich in nutrition, and is a unique delicacy in the water towns of the Jiangnan region. The “bean paste soup” made from the flesh of its cheek pouches is an especially renowned dish across Jiangnan.
