"Grass carp barbecue! Make soup with those miscellaneous fish! Don't touch the black fish! Grandpa's, such a big black fish, let me think about how to eat it!"
Xiao Han, who was talking to Zhang Qiang, noticed the movement over there. When he saw the boatman's harvest, he immediately jumped up like flying, and his eyes almost glowed green!
Oh my god, the snakehead is almost a foot and a half long! Its head alone is bigger than a cantaloupe. God knows how many years it will take to grow so big!
"Okay!"
Whenever such a critical moment, Xiaodong always grabs the credit than the fool! Daodao echoed Xiao Han, and people had already rushed to the carriage, and moved all the pots and pans from the secret compartment at the rear of the carriage.
came out.
These things are all assembled with the vehicle, and Xiao Han has to take them with him no matter where he goes! The experience of cooking with a helmet in the Qinling Mountains was something he really didn't want to do again.
It was approaching afternoon, and the fire originally started by the boatman on the river beach had been extinguished, and the fish porridge in the clay pot had turned into a paste.
Xiaodong pinched his nose and leaned over to take a look, but immediately stepped back three feet! He would rather start from scratch than use it carefully.
The marching stove is easy to build, and the most indispensable thing on the riverbank is stones!
Find a few large pieces and surround them in a circle, then dig down the dirt in the middle, and finally put the two-eared iron pot up, and a simple stove is completed.
Firewood is readily available!
While Xiaodong was setting up the pot, A and several others brought over a pile of tangled grass and dry branches.
Instead of using a fire sickle, take out some sparkling charcoal from under the boatman's stove and sprinkle it on the hay. Blow it gently and the fire will be lit.
Here a fire was lit, and over there the idiot and the boatman started killing fish together.
Grass carp is very easy to clean up, and it can be cleaned up in just a few times! It’s the small miscellaneous fish that are very troublesome. You need to scrape off the scales one by one, and then clean the gills and internal organs.
Fortunately, the boatman was very proficient in these things, and together with the fool, they could clean up all the small fish before the iron pot was heated.
Making a good pot of fish soup requires skills!
In Xiao Han's opinion, the method of adding water and simmering it is a waste of ingredients!
After washing his hands, he squatted beside the pot and watched the firewood dry up the last drop of water in the pot. Xiao Han immediately threw a piece of lard into the pot.
When the milky white lard meets the hot iron pot, it instantly melts into a hot iron pan and makes a crackling sound.
Standing back a little to avoid being touched by the oil, Xiao Han began to throw in the peppercorns, star anise and other spices one by one, letting the hot oil bring out the spicy smell of the spices themselves.
Spices, for Datang at this time, were still considered luxury goods!
After all, there is not even a pepper tree growing in the vast Central Plains. So far, all the people have been relying on beards and sacks to carry them from the far Western Regions to Chang'an!
Not to mention the long distance, plus there are wars going on everywhere, and the trade routes are blocked! The price of a handful of spices that can be transported to Chang'an is definitely comparable to gold!
Zhang Qiang usually doesn't watch Xiao Han cook, he just eats! It's not that he is not interested, but he is afraid that he can't help but scold Xiao Han for being a prodigal, and then the prodigal will take away all the dishes in revenge...
Saute the peppercorns and aniseed until fragrant, and throw in a few slices of old ginger to remove the smell. The only drawback is that there are no green onions, otherwise the taste would be better.
Let the idiot pour the washed fish into the pot, fry it, pour a little white wine, and then add water to start stewing.
In fact, when making fish soup, it is best to use hot water!
Because the fish soup cooked in this way will have an authentic milky white color, but now in the wilderness, naturally we can't ask for too much, so cold water will naturally be used.
After filling half the pot with more water, covering the pot, the fish soup began to boil! Looking at the dark iron pot, Xiao Han felt that if he had the ingredients, he would like to bake some pancakes on the edge of the pot!
Crispy and tender corn tortillas, paired with fish soup and grilled fish, the taste will definitely be unforgettable!
After filling it with wood, no one needed to worry about the fish soup anymore. Xiao Han turned his head and started to watch Xiaodong and the others dealing with the grass carp.
This unlucky grass carp was not too small. After it was cleaned, it was cut into mahjong-like pieces by Aichi, who had the best knife skills.
Xiaodong took a handful of branches, threaded all the fish pieces, then leaned against the fire and baked them bit by bit until golden brown, with skillful and graceful techniques.
"You are so skilled, you must not bake it once or twice!" Looking at the clear division of labor and skilled skills of these people, Xiao Han suddenly remembered that when he was in Hanzhong, the rice fish he raised would always be inexplicably less every now and then!
Now, the culprit has been found!
"You are a bunch of beasts. I even ate those fish! As a result, they all ended up in your stomachs! Okay, let's keep track of the accounts today, and we'll settle the accounts together another day!"
Looking at the busy people gathered in a circle with a fierce look, Xiao Han wanted to go over and kick one of them in order to pay homage to the rice fish that he was reluctant to eat!
However, seeing how happy they were, he didn't even get off his feet in the end!
Hey, during this period of time, Xiaodong and the others rarely had such a happy time with him, so they still didn't want to ruin this rare atmosphere.
Since you can't kick people, you have no choice but to vent your anger on the fish!
The huge black fish just caught was still twisting on the ground, and its ugly mouth was still opening and closing, revealing the densely packed fine teeth inside.
Xiao Han knew that this thing was not only ferocious in nature, but also had extremely strong vitality. It would not die even if it was left out of water for three days!
"It's unlucky for you to have such an ugly head. You deserve to be knocked on the head!"
Picking up a wooden stick, Xiao Han took a sip on the palm of his hand, then adjusted his position, preparing for a fatal blow!
"Master Hou, this is a filial fish, it's not easy to kill..."
Just when Xiao Han rounded the stick and wanted to kill the fish at once, such a sentence came out from beside Leng Buding, which almost missed Xiao Han's waist.
"What laughing fish? How to laugh?"
After finally stopping what he was doing, Xiao Han stared at the boatman who was speaking.
He knew that this fish was ferocious by nature, but it could laugh? Isn't that a siren's ability?
The boatman who just spoke was glared at by Xiao Han, and his body began to tremble unconsciously!
What he said just now was purely a subconscious move. Now that he was questioned by a prince who was countless times more senior than him, it was courageous enough not to be so frightened that he knelt down on the ground!
"Tsk tsk, he said this is a filial fish! It's a filial piety! It's not a laughing smile! What are you thinking about all day long?"
Just when Xiao Han didn't hear the answer and was about to ask again, Zhang Qiang came over from behind and answered the question for him.
"Filial fish? What do you mean? Can't you eat it? Why didn't I know?"
Holding the wooden stick, Xiao Han turned to look at Zhang Qiang in confusion.
When did eating a fish have to be so troublesome?!
