Chapter 6 Fish rot

After walking through most of the forest, Banlangen didn't see it, but he found a lot of ingredients with other ingredients, and Mo Chen stuffed them into a sack without letting go.

The sack that was originally used for loading the blue root is now almost half a bag.

Call!

Mo Chen threw the sack on the ground, and sat directly on the grass in the forest and breathed out, he didn't sleep last night, and he was still anemic, and his body was really unbearable.

After lying on the ground and taking a nap, he felt that his strength had recovered a little, and he continued to get up and hurry, he knew that the forest was very large, and that few people would usually come here except for some farmers who were chopping wood.

"I'll go!"

Mo Chen looked at a towering tree dozens of meters away in front of him in amazement, with dense green shade, more than ten meters high, which looked extremely dazzling in the wooded forest, and the most important thing was that the tree had a lot of thumb-sized cyan fruits, which looked like plums in the previous life.

Immediately cheered up and walked under the big tree, stretched out his hand and stroked the thick bark, a faint fragrance came to his face, he dared to conclude that the age of this tree was definitely more than a hundred years.

Looking up at the ancient trees full of fruit seeds, Mo Chen knew that those should be the banlan roots of this world, but they were too high, and ordinary people really couldn't pick them.

Mo Chen scratched his head a little pensively, but then he came up with a way, he couldn't climb up by himself, he could use the ethereal flash to go up.

Thinking of this, he put down the sack in his hand, and he could mobilize the ethereal flash skill from his consciousness, only to hear a "whoosh", Mo Chen instantly disappeared in place, appearing on a branch of the Banlan root tree.

After using the ethereal flash, I obviously felt a sense of emptiness in my body, and even a feeling of weakness, it seems that my physical state really can't use the ethereal flash all the time.

Without wasting time, he began to pick the seeds of the Banlan root tree along the branches, because the sack was not brought up, Mo Chen directly threw the picked seeds from the tree.

Ten minutes later, after coming down from the tree, Mo Chen did not rush to put the fruit seeds into the sack, but directly picked one up and put it in his mouth.

As his teeth moved, the juice was emitted in Mo Chen's mouth, and an indescribable taste hit his taste buds.

The seeds are not sweet or sour, but slightly salty, as if eating seafood, but without that fishy smell, instead of an umami smell, like a large bone broth.

Mo Chen nodded with satisfaction, it seems that this thing is really good, if it is used to cook soup or vegetables, only its juice is needed, but to make foam seasoning, it has to be dried and then ground into powder.

After putting all the seeds into the sack, Mo Chen directly carried it on his shoulder and prepared to go back, this time he came here to gain a lot.

.....

When I returned to the restaurant, the sun was almost setting, because a sack of things was too heavy, so I had to rest several times on the road before I was able to carry it back.

As soon as I entered the door, I threw the sack directly to the ground, picked up the boiled water in the ceramic pot on the table and poured it into my mouth, and then lay directly on the table.

After resting for a while, Mo Chen raised his head and found that Feng Mengwan seemed to have gone out, probably to do needlework and not come back yet.

But I am not too idle, and now I have the start-up capital, and I only need to get the seasonings good to give up the business of Malatang, and then sell instant noodles in batches while running my own restaurant.

I poured out all the ingredients in the sack, and then moved into the kitchen and began to re-study my stock.

......

"Brother, I'm back!"

Mo Chen, who was still preparing ingredients in the kitchen, heard a sound outside the door, it should be Feng Mengwan who was back.

"What are you doing?" Feng Mengwan walked into the kitchen and saw her brother cooking an unknown pot of soup in front of the stove, so she asked curiously.

Mo Chen didn't look back, picked up the spoon and scooped a little of the hot broth in the pot and took a sip gently, closing his eyes to feel the taste with an intoxicated expression.

It took a long time to open his eyes, and he stared at the soup in the pot with surprise and nodded, it seems that his broth did improve a lot of umami after adding the banlan root.

At this time, he turned around and saw Feng Mengwan standing behind him, with a crucian carp in his hand, and said, "I'm trying the soup, where did you get the fish?"

Feng Mengwan put the fish in the wooden barrel on the side, and said with a playful smile, "How else can I come, of course I bought it, I saw an uncle selling fish on the street, so I bought one by the way." ”

"Okay. I'll leave it to my brother, you can go out and rest for a while, and I'll make you something to eat tonight. Mo Chen patted his chest and assured that when the fish arrived here, it would definitely not be a simple way to make steamed fish or braised fish, and it would be more difficult to do it.

"Hee-hee, thank you, brother. ”

Feng Mengwan replied with a happy expression, and then walked out of the kitchen happily with small steps.

This crucian carp weighed more than two catties, and after Mo Chen removed its scales, he peeled off the fish head, fish bones, and even the fish skin, leaving only two pieces of fish meat in front of him, and picking up a sharp kitchen knife was a chop.

"That's it. ”

Mo Chen wiped the beads of sweat left on his forehead, looked at the fish meat that had been chopped into meat paste by himself on the board, and spit out two words in his mouth.

Then he put the fish paste into a small wooden basin and beat eight eggs and put some quicksand powder into it.

Mo Chen knew that this kind of fresh fish meat was needed to make fish curd, although the seasoning added was very simple, but the proportion of preparation must be well controlled, otherwise it would affect the taste, and the corn starch in this world would also become quicksand powder.

The ingredients are: 2 catties of fish, an appropriate amount of cornstarch and eight eggs, add some water, and then stir the glue by hand to fry it.

The heat of the oil temperature in the pot has almost burned, Mo Chen can pinch the balls, start to pinch the stirred fish rot into balls the size of two fingers, and then put them in the oil pan and start frying, but they can only be fried until they are medium-cooked, otherwise they will be too old.

.....

After Mo Chen fried all the fish curd balls, he began to boil the soup with the remaining fish head and fish bones, and then put in the previously fried fish curd, and a pot of fish curd soup was completed.

"Brother, what is this? ”

Feng Mengwan looked at the pot of soup on the table, and deliberately stretched her little head over, she knew the fish heads inside, but what were the yellow balls floating on it?

"You won't know if you eat it. Mo Chen patted the clothes on his body that were sticky with quicksand powder and smiled.

Feng Mengwan glanced at Mo Chen, then picked up the chopsticks and took a fish curd ball, took it to his mouth and blew it before putting it in his mouth.
