Lin Chou shrugged and raised his eyelids, "Let's try that good news. Apex 23S. The fastest update."
Qin Wuyong said mysteriously,
"On the island we are going to, someone found the skeleton of a forest frog in the nearby waters. The fresh... Although the flesh has been eaten away, there is no doubt that it is a forest frog. It is as big as a palm. That island is extremely
How about the good news that there may be colonies of wood frogs living there?"
Lin Chou looked at Qin Wuyong with strange eyes,
"A forest frog as big as a palm? Who are you bluffing, a guy that big or a forest frog? A toad!"
Qin Wuyong was anxious, took out the monitor and found a few pictures.
"Look at the color of the bones, the length of the legs, the curvature of the waist, and the tip of the head. If this isn't the skeleton of a wood frog, what is it?"
Lin Chou frowned and looked around, "It does look a bit like it, but why is it so big? It's not just the size of a palm, right?"
"Ahem... It's a bit too big, maybe because of alienation, but I'm really like a forest frog. What do you think, Boss Lin?"
Lin Chou nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Qin Wuyong laughed and prepared to run away.
"Then I will wait for the good news that you will go together. Goodbye."
Lin Chou curled his lips again and again, having a headache just thinking about protecting a group of ordinary people going to sea.
The Black Sea is changing rapidly, and even the Evolvers are not absolutely sure that they can return safely, let alone bringing a group of guys from the scientific research institute with them.
Calling them stubborn may be an insult to donkeys, but those nerds at the Research Institute are definitely a hundred times more upright than any stubborn donkey.
As for the forest frog Linchou who appeared randomly on the island, he didn't have much hope at all. Who knew if the gang of people had done it to deceive him.
...
Time flew by two days later. Before five o'clock in the morning, two convoys drove into Yanhui Mountain one after the other.
As soon as we got off the bus, the two groups started shouting.
"Wow, wow, you little brats, are you convinced? If it weren't for Boss Lin's treat... I would have bankrupted you today!"
"Tch, this lucky guy is showing off his power."
Lin Chou's eyes were a little dull, and he asked while climbing down from the tree,
"Who's winning?"
Sun Mingyuan and Lao Wang said with smiles, "The ones who went to catch the zombies won. These guys were out of luck. They discovered two zombie nests one after another not far from the base city, dragging their families with them."
Hundreds of them were tied up, only to come back. Didn't you see that they were so happy that they couldn't even see their eyebrows?"
"Not far?"
A hunter with a scar on his face came over and said,
"About 150 miles away, there is a hill. These zombies have hollowed out the bottom of the hill. When we rushed in, it was full of newborn zombie babies, and they hadn't opened their eyes yet.
...Hello, Boss Lin, I’m Fang Linshan.”
Lin Chou nodded, "As well as you, I remember you and have been here a few times."
Fang Linshan was overjoyed,
"It's rare that Boss Lin still remembers me...Have you seen the living corpse cub?"
Lin Chou was stunned, "I haven't seen this one before. I worked as a waiter at a zombie shooting range before I woke up. I came into contact with living corpses a lot, but I have never encountered a living zombie cub."
"Then do you know how living corpses are born?"
"Is there any other explanation?"
Fang Linshan patted his chest,
"Of course, if it hadn't been for this time, I would have always thought that living corpses were born from the wombs of their mothers. That's not the case at all!"
There were a lot of hunters, so they didn't go inside and just sat on the ground outside.
Fang Linshan gestured and said, "What about you, does anyone know?"
Many hunters shook their heads together, while the team that went south to capture the living corpses looked very proud.
Fang Linshan said,
"When we rushed into the first living corpse nest, we thought it had been abandoned. There were only a few old, weak, sick and disabled ones inside. The old ones had very little meat on their bodies, and bones could be seen directly on some of them. It was simply
It’s of no value, if it’s not that one, brothers, what’s that little chick’s name?”
A young man was pushed out,
"Just him, Lu Ermao."
Fang Linshan laughed loudly, "Yes, this kid is going on a mission with his captain for the first time. He has never even seen living corpses a few times. He rushed up with a mace and killed those unlucky ones."
The corpse was so beaten... We couldn't sell it for the price anyway, so we just wanted to give this little guy some practice, but... this guy didn't look for the right direction and just smashed down half of the wall of the nest.
.”
"The wall looks like it is made of excavated soil, but it is actually something like wet leather. It is very concealable. There is a large space hidden behind it, and there are quite big sarcomas.
The child was hung from the ceiling, and after we poked out a tumor, we realized that it was a delivery room for living corpses, and each one was filled with babies."
"When we returned to the base city, the Scientific Research Institute said that no team had retrieved such a thing yet, haha... But it made us a huge profit."
Someone went on to say,
"It's a pity. There are too many of us. I don't know where all the adult zombies have gone. I've been watching for a whole day and a whole night, but I haven't seen a big one come back."
Lin Chou only knew that living corpses could give birth to living corpse cubs. As for the specific method of giving birth, this was the first time he heard about it.
"Aren't the zombies around to protect the cubs?"
Fang Linshan scratched his head,
"I don't know, we usually encounter living corpses or there is a wave of living corpses. The ones who come out are all big guys. Even half-grown living corpses are rarely seen, let alone little cubs that are still in the delivery room without opening their eyes.
Yes, it’s well hidden.”
"I heard from people at the scientific research institute that among the zombies in a nest, it is likely that only the leader-level female zombies are qualified to select strong male parents to breed offspring. I don't know if this is true or not."
"No way. Although the zombies usually don't see much shadow, the scale of the tide of zombies is getting bigger every time. If there is only one female corpse giving birth to cubs in each nest, where did so many zombies come from?"
"That's right, you have also seen that big sarcoma. He is as tall as an adult. How much nutrition does it require? How much effort does it take to give birth to it?"
"Okay, can we study something healthy and uplifting, such as Boss Lin's whole fish feast?"
"Yes, yes, Boss Lin?"
Lin Chou twitched the corner of his mouth,
"Let me tell you, everyone, look at your watch, what time is it now?"
"Isn't it almost six o'clock? We usually get all the work done at this time. Boss Lin, you have to be more diligent. Who can have trouble with money?"
Lin Chou smiled bitterly, "Okay, okay, you guys are reasonable, just wait, there will probably be more people coming soon, and they will all be cooked in one pot."
"Yeah, yeah, don't be in a hurry. The wine will be served first and we'll drink first. There are so many people and it's so lively."
Lin Chou asked Gungun to go catch fish in the back mountain, and the big-breasted sister naturally followed.
After being fed drunken broad beans for such a long time, the fish in the river are no longer afraid of people.
When I see people coming over, they rush to the shore. The water surface seems to be boiling. There are even fish jumping directly to the shore. Their powerful tails make the ground crackle. It looks very festive.
In fact, it is not the most perfect time for Lin Chou to use crispy meat fish, but after the catastrophe, the climate is still not as good as before, and at least the quality of the fish body is close to perfect.
These huge grass carps eat high-protein broad beans and drink wine every day. Not only do they get fatter and stronger, but their personalities also become fierce. Lin Chou feels that there is a whole group of drunkards in this river.
, drinking, causing trouble and fighting, never stopping for a moment all day long.
He and the big-breasted sister pulled the net from both sides and dragged it to the shore. At least hundreds of meters long grass carp were dragged to the shore.
He threw the small grass carp back into the river and picked up the small-mouthed ground dragon that had been laid long ago.
There are some shredded crabs inside these long ground dragons. The big grass carps can't get in and can only wait outside. They are specially prepared for those small crabs with fresh and tender meat.
When we got out of the Earth Dragon, it was almost crowded with all kinds of small fish, not only fish, but also many crabs, river shrimps and the like, all showing their teeth and claws.
No other tools are needed, just a rolling fish, a ground dragon and a fishing net, carrying the fish directly to the mountain, and then pile them all next to the well in the back mountain.
Divide the small fish into several large basins, add some wine and salt to the water and let them clean themselves, and kill and rinse the crispy carp on the spot.
Lin Chou held the fish-mouth knife and flew up and down, disemboweling and removing the gills in one go. It took less than three seconds for a fish to have its scales gone and its stomach empty. It was soaked cleanly in the well water and waiting to be cooked.
The crispy meat grass carp now looks no different from the ordinary large grass carp, except that the meat is firmer and whiter, with almost no fishy smell, and the blood is brighter, that's all.
There is one dish that is a cold dish that needs to be prepared in advance and then placed in a thermostatic cabinet to be refrigerated, and that is frozen fish.
Frozen fish actually means the same thing, and the method is very simple. There are two main types.
One is crystal frozen fish, the other is red soup fish jelly.
Since there were many customers today, Lin Chou directly took the biggest pot.
Cut ten meter-long pieces of crispy pork carp from both sides of the back, and slice out two large pieces of fish meat, leaving only the skull and tail. The fish meat under the slices is cut diagonally along the exposed spine on the belly. There is no half a fish bone on the remaining fish meat. This is
This is also one of the reasons why many people like grass carp because it has more meat and less spines.
After processing four fish in this way, put five whole fish with head and tail bones and the other five fish into the oil pan, fry until slightly burnt, and take them out.
Then simply boil a pot with green onion, ginger and aniseed, add the fried fish, fish bones and pig skin that has been boiled to remove the oil, and bring to a boil over high heat. Pour in soy sauce and rice wine to make the whole pot of fish soup appear red.
However, lower the heat and simmer slowly.
After processing these, cut the whole piece of fish into thumb-width strips, and then go to the back mountain to pick some fish scented leaves.
Fish-scented leaves are a kind of arbor plant that was not very common except in the Lianghu area before the great catastrophe. Even the branches and leaves have a faint fish scent. It is one of the indispensable spices for making frozen fish.
The leaves of the fresh fish leaves are smooth and thick. Hold the branches over the charcoal fire and smoke them for a while until the back side begins to release moisture and the aroma becomes stronger. It can be used for cooking.
Put two pots on the well water on the stove. Add a few pieces of old ginger to one pot. No spices are needed in the other pot. When it is about to boil, put the fish fillets into the ginger soup and blanch for a while. Take it out and transfer it to another pot.
Throw the fish scented leaves into the pot and cook for half an hour.
The cooked fish soup has a slightly hazy color and almost no obvious taste.
Next, fill a bowl of soup with two fish fillets, arrange them in rows and put them in the constant temperature cabinet to cool down at zero temperature. After cooling and condensation, the fish soup will turn into crystal clear frozen fish.
Another pot of fish soup looked very different after it was boiled. The rich red sauce was full of fish aroma, and the boiling soup was very thick. The water splashed out was condensed but not broken, and it was more like thickening the gravy.
The aroma of protein is already attractive enough, but this pot of red soup still needs a longer time to completely extract the collagen and flavor from the fish, and the essence of the body will be completely dissolved in the soup, and the fish bones and fish will become soup residue by then.
Scrap can only be thrown away.
After the pot of soup is cooked, it must also be placed in a bowl and refrigerated until it freezes.
The meat quality of Crispy Pork Basil cannot be measured by ordinary fish meat. It is not suitable for common methods such as steaming and boiling. Its meat is extremely strong, crispy and tough. This is the key point to be highlighted.
Breaded in batter, lightly fried, stir-fried in sweet and sour sauce, these are sweet and sour crispy pork slices;
Fry thin slices quickly and mix with diced tofu, carrots, etc. to make smooth and crispy fried meat;
Stir the shaved shrimp and egg whites, add the ginger and fry until cooked, then fry the egg yolks, stack them on top of each other, also called crab racing.
There are various ways to prepare them, and Lin Chou made a total of eight dishes using crispy pork belly. The portions are enough for these big eaters to go home with their bellies in their hands.
The small fish and shrimp are followed by the fish stewed in iron pot sauce, which is simply perfect.
The dish that Lin Chou attaches most importance to is the Pork Belly, Chicken and Crispy Pork Hot Pot.
In this all-fish feast, Lin Chou also wanted to promote new dishes, and crispy meat fish was the theme.
How to let this group of heavy-tasting diners taste the original flavor of crispy pork belly without losing its style has naturally become Lin Chou's primary goal. After thinking about it, this ready-to-eat hot pot came into Lin Chou's sight.
Pork belly and chicken in clay pot, also known as Phoenix Fetus, is a "big-name" soup dish that must appear at banquets in the Hakka area of Guangdong.
According to legend, during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, when Concubine Yi was about to give birth to a prince, she was weak and had stomach problems. She was anorexic or even stopped eating. Her body became increasingly weak, which was difficult to harm Emperor Qianlong.
At that time, it was not like now. Who would dare to prescribe medicine to Concubine Yi casually if she had a dragon seed in her belly?
Even if they killed all the imperial doctors, no one would dare to let Concubine Yi take medicine in October.
So the imperial doctors and the imperial chefs discussed that medicinal tonic was not as good as food tonic, so they improved the soup color of the royal meal and stewed the chicken into the pig belly and added various precious medicinal materials to make a tonic soup. The stewed soup was thick white with clear color and had a fresh medicinal aroma.
.
After using it, Yifei had a great appetite. She often drank this soup to treat her stomach problems, and her stomach problems were cured without any medicine. She even gave birth smoothly and her skin was still rosy and beautiful after giving birth. This way, the holy family became even better than before.
Emperor Qianlong was also greatly impressed by the pork belly and chicken's ability to cure diseases and strengthen the body. In addition, he was happy to have a son. He felt that this dish was very auspicious in both the selection of ingredients and the way it was made. Yukou personally said that this dish was a special one.
Of course, some people say that Emperor Qianlong was talking about the reincarnation of a phoenix, but there is no way to verify this.
