Redfish is an indispensable delicacy on the Spring Festival dinner table in many places in Hainan, such as Dongfang, Danzhou and Lin'gao. It's also a distinct symbol of the Chinese New Year flavor in the local areas.
There are many ways to eat the redfish. It can not only be cooked as a dish alone, but also made into delicacies with pork and beef, as well as made into redfish soup, redfish porridge and redfish rice.
In Hainan, the redfish is a popular item purchased by locals during the Spring Festival, because its Chinese name "hong yu" symbolizes "good luck and having a surplus year after year."
