"That's it, it's the one in the picture. If we want to eat it, we can eat some of it. This one is much more flavorful than the red crab.↖" Ye Fei said with a nostalgic look on his face.
Han Peacock and Long Lin all looked at Ye Fei with strange expressions, but Ye Fei ignored them and was still missing them.
"I'm afraid you tasted the same taste as when you were a kid, right?" Han Peacock said with a smile. He didn't think that the grasshoppers were more delicious than the red cockroaches. I'm afraid that what Ye Fei ate was a kind of nostalgia.
You must know that midges are widely distributed in China. They are not a precious crab weight, but it is true that they have high nutritional value.
"Actually, when I was a child, I often came into contact with midges, and even caught one on the beach. Since I was born on an island, I was familiar with all kinds of crabs. When I was a child, I went to the beach with my brother to catch various small crabs.
Eat it as a vegetable, it is a rare delicacy." Ye Fei did not refute Han Peacock's words.
"You know a lot about midges! But do you really think they are more delicious than red midges?" Long Lin said with a strange expression on his face.
"Of course, I often ate it when I was a child." Ye Fei said matter-of-factly.
"You are such an ignorant boy." Han Peacock shook his head and smiled.
He smiled like this, and Long Lin even laughed so hard that he leaned on the table.
"A locust is a red locust. You really..." As he said that, Long Lin couldn't continue.
At this time, everyone who didn't know why Han Peacock and Long Lin were laughing, after being stunned for a moment, all started laughing.
The midge is the red sturgeon, whose scientific name is Scylla serrata. It belongs to the class Crustacea and family Portunidae. It likes to live in burrows in the muddy bottoms of shallow seas near the coast and at estuaries. It is ferocious and carnivorous. It mainly eats fish, shrimp and shellfish.
The meat of grasshoppers is delicious, rich in nutrients, and has the effect of nourishing and strengthening the body. Especially the female crabs are regarded as "grey crabs" by people in southern my country and are also known as "sea ginseng".
Squid midges are abundant in warm shallow seas. They are mainly distributed in the coastal areas of Guangdong, Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, Taiwan, and Taiwan, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
"Impossible, we breed a lot of this thing there, how come I didn't know it was also called a red cricket?" Ye Fei's face turned red, but he was still a tough talker until now.
"We also breed red beetles here, and many marine experts work together with red beetle breeding professionals." Han Peacock said with a smile.
Marine breeding is a national policy that Korean peacocks have set long ago. All valuable seafood are cultivated in Korean peacocks, and now the stalls are getting bigger and bigger.
Of course, he would not let go of the rich nutrition of red moths. Breeding midges involves risks and costs. Most of the midges currently on the market are farmed.
The grasshopper breeding farms are built less than three or four meters away from the coast. Each plot is a 30-acre saltwater lake. There are about 10-30 young grasshoppers per pound, and the average price is 7 cents each.
March to July every year is the best time to put out seedlings. It usually takes four to five months from seedlings to go on the market.
When the midges are on the market, the big one is about one and a half pounds. The small ones are also half a pound, so the economic value of this kind of crab is high.
You must know that domestically produced hairy crabs are good for three taels. The higher the price, the more expensive they are. There are basically no 7 taels of hairy crabs. The hairy crabs here are imported from abroad and are carefully selected. That's why they are so big.
In this regard, midges are very similar to hairy crabs that grow abroad. The best feed for midges is fresh small fish. Midges have few natural enemies, but their survival rate is very low, about 10 to 3 percent.
Between ten. However, they can be stocked twice a year.
Breeding midges involves a lot of risks. If a typhoon or spring tide comes, the sea water in the saltwater lake will rise. If the defense measures are not effective, the midges will take the opportunity to crawl out of the lake shore and escape.
Another aspect is the pollution of sea water, because the salt water lake needs to change the sea water every day. If the sea water is polluted, the midges will be poisoned and die.
None of this is a problem in the waters of Peacock Island. In addition, active water increases the survival rate. It is difficult for farmers here not to make money.
They breed midges here. When harvesting, they only need to drain the salt water from the coastal lakes, then put on gloves and catch them one by one.
The storage period of a midge that leaves the saltwater lake is generally one week to half a month, but as long as there is salt water for it to drink, it usually will not die.
The midge has the characteristics of high protein and low fat, so it has high nutritional value and is known as sea ginseng. Therefore, the midge has become a high-end delicacy for people.
Midges are easier to breed than shrimps, and the profits are higher. Even hairy crabs are no match for them.
Seeing that Han Peacock knew more about midges than he did, Ye Fei finally stopped talking.
"Do you know so much about this? I know you are knowledgeable, but are you too perverted?" Cheng Jun also had to issue Han Peacock at this time, but at the end of this seriousness, they couldn't compare.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "The reason why I know so much about midges is entirely because of their medicinal value. Eating this thing is definitely a great tonic."
"I remember that no matter who you are, you can't eat too much crabs, right?" Chen Jiayi said.
"This is not certain." Han Kongque said.
Crab midges are rich in protein and trace elements and have a very good nourishing effect on the body. However, crabs are salty and cold in nature and are scavengers, so they must be dipped in minced ginger and vinegar to dispel cold and sterilize them. They should not be eaten alone, as women are more likely to eat them.
It's about eating less.
While women cannot eat more, men must eat more, especially soldiers. There are certain groups of people who are suitable for eating midges, but of course the general population can eat them.
However, the most suitable people for eating grasshoppers are those who often suffer injuries from falls, broken muscles, broken bones, blood stasis, swelling and pain.
In addition to these, midges also have the effects of strengthening the waist and nourishing the kidneys, eliminating accumulation and strengthening the spleen, nourishing the heart and calming the mind. In fact, the reason why Han Peacock understands the midges so well is because for a period of time, he needs various tonics to supplement.
The loss of one’s own essence and blood.
Even now, Korean Peacock always eats things with high nutritional value as long as he can eat them. After all, he still has a Gu worm in his body that needs to be fed.
"How about we get some red crabs? This is a good thing. Even I have never eaten it once." Han Peacock said that the red crabs are so good. Deng Hui has lived in the mainland for a long time and has never eaten them once.
When I saw you, I naturally saw the hunting heart in the south.
"Forget it! This kind of thing is needed by pregnant women and weak people. We don't need to use this tonic." Long Lin said with a smile.
"Things that can be used by pregnant women as supplements are really good things. If you have the isinglass from the yellow-lipped fish at this time, I will definitely eat it without hesitation. So what if I get criticized?" Deng Hui said with a look on his face.
said excitedly.
The isinglass of the yellow-lipped fish is also a great tonic for pregnant women, and he had long heard that Korean Peacock had yellow-lipped fish, so when he had the opportunity, he naturally kept applying eye drops, hoping to satisfy Han Peacock.
Taste his appetite.
"Yellow lip fish is not common, but it is not impossible. When I have time, I will make you a full fish feast. At this time, let's eat crabs!"
"August midges are as nutritious as a chicken, and are as nutritious as ginseng. Of course I have no objection to eating them," Han Peacock said with a smile.
"How about we have blue crab and potato soup?" Long Lin said.
"If you don't go to Lushan, you'll live up to your eyes, and if you don't eat crabs, you'll live up to your belly. When you come here, you really should try this." Liu Mingyu said at this time.
"You don't need to show off your knowledge, but you are right. Once you have eaten a midge, you will never forget it." Ye Fei said at this time.
This is pretty good, as long as you have eaten grasshoppers, this is the most difficult delicacy to give up.
Although midges can be eaten all year round, the eighth month of the lunar calendar is the most fertile time of the year. Therefore, there is also a saying among the people that "August midges are worth a chicken".
Su Dongpo described the delicacy of crabs in his famous poem about crabs: "Half the shell contains yellow, so it is recommended to order wine, and the two claws of the snow are recommended to have an extra meal."
In this season, whether it is simple grilled crab, braised crab, or blue crab porridge, green crab potato soup, you can enjoy the deliciousness of crab.
"Just one blue crab can make so many dishes. The daily turnover here is astronomical, right?" Chen Jiayi couldn't help but ask at this time.
"Just look at the people here. We have been sitting here for so long, and they still haven't served us food." Long Lin complained.
"It's not their fault. Look at our table numbers. The dishes are served according to the numbers. I noticed it just now." Cheng Jun said.
"This shows that Xiao Han is doing a good job! So many people eat such expensive crabs, which shows that people here are very rich." Deng Hui said with a smile.
"With so many resources, how can we have no money?" Cheng Jun said sarcastically.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I didn't ask for the resources I occupied, but gave them all."
Suddenly, Cheng Jun couldn't say anything anymore. If they really let them take over this place, would the fishermen here still get as much benefit as they do now?
It doesn't take much thinking to know that it's impossible.
"Why are you talking about this? This is the way the world is. Whoever works harder will succeed. Look, this crab is too big, right?" Chen Jiayi pointed to a table next to them and said.
"Is this a king crab?" Looking at the huge crabs, one of them took up most of the table. In Long Lin's impression, only king crabs were so big.
"I'm afraid this is not a king crab, it should be a king crab, also called a giant crab." Han Peacock said.
The giant shore crab is the heaviest among existing crabs, up to 36 kilograms; its carapace width can reach 60 centimeters, its foot span is 1.5 meters, and its body is heavy; its carapace is relatively hard, red and white, and fan-shaped; its chelicerae are thick and
Pincer fingers are black and are an Australian delicacy.
"The giant crab is also commonly known as the king crab and cannot be confused with the king crab." After confirming again, Han Peacock said again. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
