The Left-eye flounder is a flat seawater fish.

The Left -eye Flounder is a flat seawater fish belonging to the family Plaiceidae. They get their name from the structure of their mouths, with the side to the left of the eyes being considered the "left mouth". The body of the left-mouthed fish is flat on the side and has special appearance characteristics, such as the asymmetry of the eyes on both sides and color markings.

The fish is widely distributed and can be found in oceans and coastal areas around the world. They like to live on the bottom of sandy muddy bottoms and feed on plankton and small benthic organisms.

The Left-eye flounder is a nutrient-dense saltwater fish that provides a variety of important nutrients, including:

1. Protein: Left stoma is a good source of high-quality protein. Protein is essential for building and repairing the body's cells and is a building block of enzymes and hormones the body needs.

2. Omega-3 fatty acids: Leftover fish is rich in heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids, such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). These fatty acids play important roles in heart function, brain health, and regulation of inflammatory responses.

3. Minerals: Left stoma contains a variety of minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc. These minerals are essential for bone health, nerve conduction, and cell metabolism.

4. Vitamins: Left mouth fish contains a variety of vitamins, such as vitamin D, vitamin B12 and vitamin A. Vitamin D is important for bone health and calcium absorption, vitamin B12 is essential for nervous system function and red blood cell formation, and vitamin A is beneficial for vision and immune system function.

It should be noted that the specific nutritional content may vary due to individual differences in the left stoma, ecological environment, food chain and other factors. In addition, cooking methods and added seasonings may also affect its nutritional value. For accurate nutritional information, please refer to scientific research data or consult a nutrition expert.

Left-eye flounder can be cooked in a variety of ways, and the specific methods can be adjusted to suit personal tastes and preferences. Here are a few common ways to cook squid:

1. Steaming: Put the left-mouthed fish whole or into pieces into a steamer, and add ginger slices, green onions, steamed fish soy sauce and other seasonings. After the steamer is heated, steam over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked and tender. You can add coriander, minced garlic, etc. as ingredients according to your personal taste.

2. Fry: Dip the left-mouthed fish into pieces or the whole fish in flour or egg liquid, and then heat an appropriate amount of oil in a wok. Fry the fish until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Pan-fried left-mouthed fish is usually served with soy sauce, chili sauce, or other seasonings.

3. Oven roasting: Place the left-mouthed fish fillets on a baking sheet and apply seasonings such as olive oil, salt, and pepper. Preheat the oven to the appropriate temperature (usually 180°C-200°C) and bake the fish in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the surface is slightly golden.

4. Stew the soup: Put the left-mouthed fish pieces and vegetables (such as onions, carrots, tomatoes, etc.) into the stew pot. Add Chicken stock or seafood stock, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked and tender. Seasonings and spices can be added to suit personal taste.
