440. Sky-high-priced fruits, caviar among fruits

 After some explanation, Li Xiao continued to taste the food on the table.

After eating a lot of meat, I already felt a little full in my stomach.

So he picked up a green finger orange as thick as his thumb with his fingers.

The yield of this kind of finger orange is very low, and it is very difficult to grow.

It needs to be planted in a place with extremely humid air, sufficient sunshine, and very fertile land.

These two conditions are extremely conflicting. After all, once there is enough light, the moisture in the air will evaporate instantly.

When the air is humid, it usually lacks light and is relatively cool.

In the past, the yield of this fruit was even lower, and only a few dignitaries could afford it.

But now that technology is more advanced, both air humidity and light can be satisfied through artificially synthesized conditions.

So now there are more places where this fruit can be grown.

It's just that the cost will be slightly higher, but it can still be popularized in the high-end market.

Li Xiao pinched open the outer layer of skin with his fingers.

One by one, red particles emitting bright light like rubies appeared in Li Xiao's sight.

The size of these pink particles is about the same as that of caviar.

It's a bit like a pomegranate seed that has been shrunk countless times.

It's just that these pink 'caviars' are different from pomegranates. They have no seeds and can be completely eaten.

Turn your finger over and gently tap the orange-green skin on your finger with a spoon.

With the tapping, the pink 'caviar' inside fell quickly like rain.

Soon, only a layer of skin remained on the entire orange finger.

Show the pink ‘caviar’ in the bowl to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"The finger orange is also known as 'fruit caviar'."

"It is true that its pulp is very close to caviar in terms of price, appearance, and taste."

"In addition, this finger orange is not easy to preserve."

"Many times, in order to maximize profits, fruit farmers will pick finger oranges before they are ripe."

"This can increase the storage time to a certain extent."

"But this fruit is different from bananas, durians, and kiwis, which can ripen slowly on their own even if they are picked."

“Once the finger oranges are picked, their maturity will remain the same as when they were picked.”

"So, most of the pulp of finger oranges that you see in daily life is white or green."

"And the taste is sour and even astringent, which makes people's evaluation of finger oranges vary."

"The skin color of a normal mature finger orange is dark green or even dark green."

"And the flesh is pink, even dark red."

"Now I will give you a taste of this finger orange, which sells for up to 600 yuan per catty. Is it delicious?"

·····

In the live broadcast room.

"600 per pound of fruit?"

"Oh my god, is this eating gold?"

“So willing to give it up!”

"I guess it's not usually available. Isn't this to entertain the anchor?"

"It feels so miserable, losing both my wife and my army."

"That's right, haha, the people who went to eat today were really happy."

"I bought this thing before, 5 pieces for 100 yuan."

After introducing the finger orange, Li Xiao scooped up a spoonful of pink pulp.

The mouth was closed, and the pulp inside the mouth burst open.

The rich sweet and sour taste, the fruity aroma of orange and lemon, the refreshing fragrance of mint, and the strong aftertaste instantly spread on the taste buds.

“Delicious, very delicious.”

"The fruity aroma is very strong, and the taste is similar to a combination of orange, lemon, and mint."

"And the texture is very special, it really looks like caviar, and it has a stronger crunch."

"However, the price/performance ratio of 600 per pound is indeed a bit low."

“At this price, you can taste real caviar.”

After finishing the finger orange, Li Xiao looked at the iceberg core next to her.

Iceberg core.

As the name suggests, it is the core of ice vegetables. Ice vegetables are also called ice grass.

"Icegrass is a very interesting plant, its origin is Africa."

"It is very nutritious, rich in a variety of amino acids, flavonoids, and various minerals."

He picked up an ice dish with chopsticks and held it up in front of the camera.

"Look, this ice dish, as its name suggests, has ice on it."

"Of course, it's not because the temperature is too low that it freezes."

"But the structure of the iceberg itself is very special. In a low-temperature environment, the body fluids in the body will precipitate."

"After these body fluids separate, they will form crystals on the surface of the ice vegetables, which looks like frost, but it is not frost."

After the introduction, Li Xiao did not dip the dish into the sauce and threw the iced cabbage core from which the old leaves had been peeled off into his mouth.

There is a cold feeling when you enter the iced vegetables. The reason why it is cold is partly because the iced vegetables were stored in the freezer before.

On the other hand, there is not only water in the crystals, but also water in the body fluids of ice vegetables, as well as low sodium salts and a large amount of menthol.

When menthol comes into contact with the mouth, it stimulates the nerve endings of the human body, causing a temporary feeling of coldness.

"If you eat the iceberg core alone, it tastes ordinary, like eating mint leaves."

"But the taste is better, crispy, cool, and very refreshing. Although it is a bit salty, the salty taste is very low."

"Although it is convenient to eat it raw, it is better to dip it in sauce."

As he said that, Li Xiao picked up the iceberg core and covered it with mayonnaise.

After being dipped in mayonnaise, the taste is indeed better, and the mayonnaise made here is specially made.

Shredded cheese and salted egg yolk are added to ordinary mayonnaise, giving it an extremely rich texture and taste.

After eating two refreshing cold dishes, the greasy feeling in your mouth disappeared.

Li Xiao set his sights on the M6 ​​Wagyu.

The M6 ​​wagyu here is cut very thin, as thin as the fat beef usually used for hot pot.

The preparation method of M6 Wagyu beef is also very special, it is served raw.

All diners need to choose is the thickness.

The production will be arranged on the dining table.

"Look at the quality of the Wagyu beef in this M6. The snowflakes are very delicate."

"Of course what you usually eat when you come here should be M4 Wagyu."

"Although the quality is still very good, the distribution of snowflakes on it is definitely not so uniform, and the texture of the snowflakes is not so delicate."

"Now I'll ask the little sister to help me fry it."

Li Xiaogang raised his hand, and the waitress next to him, who had been eyeing him eagerly, jumped to his side in one stride.

The young lady had a smile on her face:

"I wonder what services Mr. Li needs here?"

Seeing the other party's quick movements and exaggerated smile on his face.

Li Xiao's mouth twitched. Has this been reported to the whole store?

He shook his head and put away the distracting thoughts in his mind.

He pointed to the plate of M6 wagyu spread on crushed ice on his table.

"Help me fry it, thank you."
