One Thousand One Hundred and Twenty-Six. Anchovy Out of Water (1/5)
After crawling and playing around for a while, the little melon was tired, 'Gulu' turned over, lay on the drifting island, panted heavily with his mouth open, and let Qin Shiou and Wei Ni go.
Qin Shiou inserted the fishing rod into a gap and accompanied Wei Ni in the cabin kitchen to prepare dinner.
Expensive things are definitely worth the money, such a small kitchen is fully equipped, including range hood, small refrigerator, water purifier, induction cooker and microwave oven.
No wonder the manufacturer refuses to display his product parameters online. Many technologies in this capsule house involve patent issues. For example, these small kitchen utensils, refrigerators and water purifiers are combined into one, which can be patented.
In order to make the capsule house play a sufficient role in the limited space, the manufacturer racked its brains and made good use of every inch of space. There are some things in the kitchen of the cabin that are very inconspicuous, but after being pulled apart, it is discovered that it also has a unique and wonderful function.
The kitchen was too small for the two of them, so Qin Shiou set up the msr - a general-purpose field combustion stove. Very fierce.
In fact, Qin Shiou felt that there was no need to make such a big fuss in the kitchen of this capsule cabin. It would be better to prepare this kind of combustion tank and put an oil gas tank in the kitchen. If it is not safe enough, then use a wood stove.
Wood stoves have been around for a long time in the frigid regions of Newfoundland, but the exquisite outdoor distillation wood stoves have just emerged. Qin Shiou had a brief understanding of them before and wanted to buy one, but he felt that this thing is more fun for himself. I didn't buy it.
In addition, distillation wood stoves are very expensive, and a medium-sized stove from Xiaoworm brand costs about 400 Canadian dollars!
The stove Qin Shiou is using now was bought in the past. At that time, it was specially prepared for camping in the mountains. What he wanted was strong firepower, portable and light weight. Can make a quick meal.
But now that there is a small melon, it is inconvenient to use such a stove, because it is dangerous and burns liquefied petroleum gas or gasoline and diesel. If the little one accidentally knocks over, Qin Shiou will cry.
Clean up the stove. Qin Shiou discussed with Wei Ni: "Go back and give this stove to someone else, I'll buy a new wood-burning stove."
Winnie nodded and said yes, you can make decisions about such things yourself, Qin Shiou said: "I make decisions by myself? No, no, no, I don't dare."
Winnie laughed. In the past, he hugged him from behind and said, "I'm in charge of small things, and you are in charge of big things. Whether a thing is big or small, it's up to you, okay?"
Qin Shiou smiled in satisfaction,
While erecting the iron frame and whistling happily, Winnie smiled and picked up her tired daughter, and said in a low voice, "Little baby. I must find a stupid husband in the future."
The universal burner can adjust the firepower, and Qin Shiou is ready to cook. In this kind of place, semi-finished products or simple dishes are used for cooking. You can't make a fish-flavored shredded pork, right? That's too much work.
When the boat was sailing earlier, Qin Shiou randomly lowered a net, and now he fished the net up, and there are some fat and tender arctic shrimps in it. Spring is a good season to eat arctic shrimps, and they lay eggs in spring. At this time the most fat.
In Chinese cuisine, there is a cooking technique of boiling, which is to boil food with boiling water or soup. And to eat arctic shrimp, it is most suitable to make boiled shrimp.
When Qin Shiou was in his hometown. There is a conceptual confusion about "Bai Zhuo", thinking that Bai Zhuo means boiling it in white water, taking it out and eating it. In fact, it is not, that is a misunderstanding of the literal, the real boiled shrimp still has several processes.
Of course, these steps are very simple.
Clean up the arctic prawns, chop the onion, ginger and garlic and prepare cooking wine. Qin Shiou lights up the fire and pours a little oil into the small pot. Stir-fry and add water, so that the arctic shrimp can be cooked again.
The arctic shrimp itself is delicious and sweet. Eskimos like to eat this kind of shrimp raw. Even if they don’t eat it raw, don’t cook it for too long, otherwise the umami and sweetness will be lost if the meat is overcooked.
Let the arctic shrimp roll in the pot, and Qin Shiou fished it out. There were crushed ice cubes in the refrigerator, and he took it out and put the arctic shrimp in, so that the shrimp meat that had been loosened by heating would condense again and become crisp and fresh again.
Winnie prepared soy sauce and wasabi, picked a shrimp and peeled it neatly, dipped it into Qin Shiou's mouth, and asked, "Is it delicious?"
Qin Shiou nodded, and was about to say something sweet, when Huzi and Leopard, who were lying beside the fishing rod, yelled.
The fishing line was pulled very tightly. Qin Shiou went up to try the strength, and then made a strenuous gesture. Winnie asked nervously, "Is it a big fish?"
After all, the drifting island is a plastic island. If you catch a shark on it, you might be dragged away.
Qin Shiou gritted his teeth and nodded, and Winnie laughed immediately: "Stop acting, I've never seen you struggling so much, unless you caught a whale."
When the conspiracy was revealed, Qin Shiou also smiled. He quickly turned the reel seat, the fishing line was retracted, and finally two slender silver bright-colored small fish were caught.
These two fish are only more than 20 centimeters long, their bodies are long and flattened, and the arc gradually tapers from the head to the tail, like a saber. Its body is mainly composed of three colors: blue, yellow, and white. These three colors are very gorgeous, the blue is deep, the yellow is brilliant, and the white is shining.
Naturally, this is the Florida knife anchovy, which can be ranked among the top five players in terms of fishery value.
The reproductive ability of Florida swordfish is really worrying. They are a kind of fish that live in rivers and grow in the sea. Like salmon, they need to breed in inland rivers, and they cannot reproduce in the sea. But even if they enter the river, their reproductive ability is not strong.
This kind of fish breeds in spring, and Qin Shiou plans to control them all the way north into the Kanbal mountain river. Anyway, there are not many sword anchovy in the fishing ground, and this kind of mountain stream and small river can accommodate them.
One of the two fish has a bulging belly and the other is shriveled. The bulging belly is the female fish that is about to lay eggs, and the other is the male fish.
Qin Shiou picked the female fish and threw it back into the sea, and the male fish was going to cook tonight.
It was the first time Winnie saw this kind of fish. She didn't recognize it, so she asked strangely, "What kind of fish is this?"
Qin Shiou didn't explain, and said with a smile that it was a delicious fish, and then went to deal with it.
Knife anchovy is delicious, but it is not easy to take care of. There is a piece of black mucous membrane in its belly. This thing is poisonous and must be cleaned up. During the cleaning process, the white scales on the fish should not be touched. These tiny scales have high nutritional value. (to be continued)
