In the village, the wild mushrooms picked fresh from the mountains are not so particular. If there are many of the same kind of mushrooms, they will be taken out and cooked separately. If there are few mushrooms, they will often be stir-fried into one pot.
Chicken berries are used to make chicken berries oil and steamed chicken berries, and porcini mushrooms and green beans can also be stir-fried.
Chanterelles and some other fungi were put into the chicken soup, and they were all cooked after cooking for a while.
"How's the food going?"
The person who asked this question was fan Xiao Wang's uncle. He had a marijuana bag in his hand and didn't know what was in it.
"It's almost coming. Let the chicken soup boil for a while and stir-fry a few vegetables and you'll be ready to eat."
"Well, if nothing happens to you two, come and help me."
Help? What help?
The uncle held a large sack in his hand and blinked at Li Xiao with a mysterious look on his face: "Are you from the city? You must have never seen this thing before."
There aren't many things in this world that Li Xiao doesn't know.
The uncle put the big sack in his hand on the ground, opened it and shook out the contents.
Li Xiao looked at that thing and couldn't help but smile.
He thought it was something strange.
Inside the sack was a large honeycomb.
Inside the honeycomb, there are white insects squirming.
It turns out to be bee pupae.
Although bee pupae are not a common thing, people still get them and eat them in many places.
Of course, there are also many people who are persuaded to retreat when faced with these squirming insects.
Although this stuff is high in protein, not everyone can tolerate it.
"Haha, you've never seen this thing before."
The uncle was still there feeling complacent, but Li Xiao actually said: "Isn't this just a bee pupa? I've eaten it before."
The uncle who was laughing with his hands on his hips was obviously stunned for a moment.
The scene was very embarrassing for a time.
Fortunately, Xiao Wang came out in time to smooth things over, "Oh, uncle, you don't know, Li Xiao is a well-known anchor, who specializes in going to various places to eat delicious food. Of course it's not surprising that he has seen this thing."
"Besides, we Yunnanese are not the only ones who eat insects."
"You can eat this kind of food elsewhere."
The uncle looked a little uninterested, waved his hand, and said: "Ahem... okay... let's get these bee pupae out quickly."
Because Li Xiao went to the mountains to live broadcast mushroom picking before, and then went home and was busy making chicken fir oil and other mushrooms, so his live broadcast has never been closed. At this moment, fans on the barrage are watching the
A big beehive, not to mention how shocking it is inside.
"(?'?'?)??????Oh my God! What a big honeycomb!"
“∑(??0д??lll) Oh my god, I’m shocked!”
"People in the city said they have never seen such a big hive in their lives."
"Can you see this? If you see this, then you have to call the police."
"Shouldn't the person in front call the fireman? The policeman seems to only catch bad guys."
"A big beehive like this should really be handled by a firefighter."
"(?'?'??)? Oh my god, look, there's something moving inside the honeycomb!"
"Oh my god, this... so much... trypophobia!"
"The picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it."
"((???|||))How can there be so many bee pupae..."
"Look, it's still moving!!"
"I can't stand it anymore. I'm leaving first. You can enjoy it slowly. I really can't stand so many bee pupae squirming in front of my eyes."
"I'm afraid of this soft-looking, boneless, squirming insect!! Ahhh, I'm going to have nightmares again at night."
"My mouth is watering. With so many bee pupae, can they make a big plate?"
"Ah, there are so many bee pupae, it's terrible. Do we still need to eat bugs at night?"
"Oh my God, I can't stand it anymore. I want to cancel the detention."
"Just take it away. Why do you have to say it out? Is it a debt?"
"I really don't understand what you are so afraid of. These are high in protein and very nutritious."
"It's just that if you eat too much, you may get angry easily..."
In the live broadcast, the uncle has already moved the huge bee pupa away.
Most of the larger bees were smoked to death, and most of the sacks were filled with small bee pupae.
Some of these bee pupae have stopped moving, while others are still squirming inside the hive. I don’t know what they are doing.
The white bugs in front of him are really a challenge for Li Xiao...
After all, normal people probably don’t like to see a large group of white worms moving around together...
But you still have to help.
Even though it looked a little uncomfortable, Li Xiao helped take the bee pupae out of the hive one by one and put them on a large plate.
Although it looks a bit disgusting now, it still tastes good after being fried.
There is a tradition of eating insects in Yunnan.
Grasshoppers jumping around in the rice fields, bee pupae squirming in the beehive, bamboo insects burrowing in the bamboo... these are all relatively common things.
And it’s easier to accept.
There are many things that are more difficult to accept.
For example, centipedes, spiders... and other insects...
Just looking at it makes people feel scared.
I really don’t know what the first person who ate these bugs thought.
But having said that, these bugs are indeed rich in nutrients...
After taking out all the bee pupae from the hive, heat the oil in a pot.
Then put these bee pupae into the oil pan and fry them.
Wait until fried until golden brown, then take it out of the pan.
Sprinkle with a handful of table salt and it's a great dish to go with wine.
After the bee pupae are fried, the people are almost here.
As a food blogger, Li Xiao naturally assumes the important responsibility of the master chef.
After all, among this group of people, no one can compare to Li Xiao when it comes to cooking food.
Making wild mushrooms is very simple.
Cut the mushrooms into slices and heat oil in a pan.
Add the chili, Sichuan peppercorns and ginger to the oil pan and stir-fry until fragrant.
Add wild mushrooms and most importantly garlic.
Of course, you can also add some green and red peppers for decoration.
Wait until the wild mushrooms are completely cooked before serving.
Before serving, simply add a little salt and leave out the rest of the seasonings.
Li Xiao has the ability to identify whether food is toxic, and he is also good at controlling the temperature of food.
Therefore, Li Xiao knew it when the pot of mushrooms was just cooked.
Take out the pot and put it on the plate, all in one smooth motion.
Fan Xiao Wang was so cool by Li Xiao's actions that he screamed a few times, and successfully got a big mouth from his uncle.
"What are you looking at? Go and help serve the food."
"Look at how good they are, how good they are at cooking."
"Look at you again. How old are you that you don't do your job every day? You only eat and sleep, and you still watch live broadcasts on your mobile phone every day."
"Look at this guy, he's so handsome and he can cook."
"If you learn more from him, maybe our family will be able to treat guests next year."
"You're such an old man, why don't you worry about falling in love? When I'm your age, my kids will be able to do it..."
The audience in front of the live broadcast screen was moved by the uncle's words, and one or two of them typed a series of hahaha on the barrage.
"Hahahahaha, are you laughing so hard at me? (*′?`*)?"
"This is so funny, isn't it? Hahaha?*.?(ˊwˋ*)??*."
"Help! These words are exactly the same as what my parents said when they urged me to get married!"
"Ah hahaha I will die laughing in the host's live broadcast room sooner or later!"
"No, no, no, I'm going to die laughing."
"Are you guys still laughing? Have you found someone? Have you bought a car or a house? Have you gotten married? Is the kindergarten your child attends good? Did you buy a house in the school district? How are your children's grades?"
"Let me go, you in front of me are simply a devil!"
"Okay, let me add something...have you finished your homework?"
"Devils, you are all devils!"
"Ahhhhhhh, now that you say that, I remember, I haven't finished my homework yet!"
"I didn't do it either. Now I'm so panicked."
"Give me a pen, a lamp, and a night, and I will give you a miracle."
"Do you want to help us with our homework? Give us your address and I'll come over with my homework right away."
"???When did I say I would give you homework?"
"I was watching the live broadcast, and now I heard what you were talking about about homework...so I was watching the live broadcast nervously."
"Why don't you do your homework?"
"When you say that, I get even more nervous, okay!"
The food was on the table quickly.
Li Xiao sat together with the fan Xiao Wang and the uncle who had just picked up the bee pupa.
"Hey, look what this is?"
The uncle pulled out a small box from nowhere like a magic trick, and inside the box were fried grasshoppers.
I have to mention the eighteen monsters of Yunnan, one of which is "three grasshoppers on a plate".
Every harvest season, there will be many grasshoppers jumping up and down in the rice fields. In the days when food was scarce, people would catch a lot of grasshoppers to eat.
Grasshoppers are also locusts. A large number of locusts can be devastating to crops. Therefore, catching and eating grasshoppers can not only protect the crops, but also supplement nutrients and fill the stomach. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.
Grasshoppers are rich in protein, carbohydrates, insect hormones and other active substances, and contain vitamins A, B, C and trace elements such as phosphorus, calcium, iron, zinc, manganese. I heard that grasshoppers are not only a delicacy, but also a good medicine for curing diseases.
, it has the effects of warming the stomach and ribs, strengthening the spleen and digestion, dispelling wind and relieving cough.
According to my country's "Compendium of Materia Medica", locusts can be used alone or in combination to treat a variety of diseases, such as tetanus, infantile convulsions, fever, asthma, bloating, cormorant plague, chilblains, tracheitis and prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Disease, etc.
"Oh, you still have this. It's not the season for grasshoppers. Did you catch it last year or buy it on the street?"
Li Xiao saw the small box of fried grasshoppers and said, "It's quite expensive to buy this now, isn't it?"
"Oh, we don't have that many grasshoppers in the fields now, and many people in the fields are spraying pesticides. I don't dare to eat them. These are farmed grasshoppers."
As the uncle spoke, he picked up a grasshopper from the box with chopsticks, put it in the air, and started chewing it.
"It costs dozens of dollars per catty. If I hadn't heard that a customer was coming, I wouldn't have taken it out."
"This grasshopper is great for drinking. Young man, can you drink?"
Most men of the Yi ethnic group know how to drink, and their drinking capacity is quite good.
"Of course I can drink."
Anyway, there was nothing going on in the evening, so Li Xiao planned to have a drink with this uncle.
Nowadays, I can also eat wild mushrooms and watch vegetables.
Tomorrow, I can't be so lax about my job.
Li Xiao didn't forget that he still had a system.
Checking in to explore the store is a serious matter.
But since everyone has been here for a while, it’s not a bad thing to experience the local customs and national customs.
If he hadn't experienced it, Li Xiao might feel that his trip was in vain.
But before drinking, you have to taste the food you worked so hard to make.
Li Xiao used chopsticks to pick up a piece of steamed chicken fir.
"Well, the taste of this gallbladder fungus is so delicious. Although it is a wild fungus, it tastes like meat."
“The taste is sweet, salty, and contains the aroma of ham...”
“This is simply top-notch food.”
“It doesn’t require fancy cooking methods, just adding a few slices of ham on the plate can bring out its original sweetness.”
Li Xiao sighed.
Next, of course, we have to try the fried wild mushrooms.
Li Xiao picked up a few pieces of mushroom and put them into his bowl.
When frying the mushrooms, Li Xiao also put a few slices of bacon in the pot. The mushrooms were also fried in a mixture of lard and rapeseed oil.
Because Li Xiao feels that a single type of oil tastes relatively single, and lard and rapeseed oil have different aromas. Only by using them together can the advantages of the two be well combined.
When you put a piece of fungus in your mouth, it tastes indescribably delicious.
It originally smelled like ordinary mushrooms, but the second he took it into his mouth, Li Xiao roughly understood why Yunnan people knew that eating wild mushrooms would cause poisoning, but they still went to the mountains to pick wild mushrooms year after year.
Just because this mushroom is so delicious.
The soft and tender mushrooms are paired with the mild spiciness of chili peppers and the aroma of Sichuan peppercorns. The flavor of the handful of garlic you just put in becomes particularly obvious at this moment.
The aroma of lard and bacon is mixed with the fungi from the mountains and forests.
It's like a mountain breeze blowing through the tip of your nose with the aroma of other spices.
Fragrant and delicious.
This is Li Xiao’s evaluation of this plate of fungi.
Thanks to Li Xiao's cooking skills, the heat of this dish of mushrooms was just right, and the taste of salt was also just right.
There is no need to thicken the sauce, this plate of mushrooms has its own rich and mellow sauce.
It's smooth and delicate, as if it's going to slide directly from your mouth to your throat.
Li Xiao swallowed the wild mushrooms in his mouth, and suddenly felt that it would be a pity not to have such a thick sauce with a bowl of rice.
