Chapter 462: The Male and Female of Maozhu
Zhou Yuhang and Wang Feihong smashed the stone snail while talking and laughing with Chen Baoli, full of enthusiasm. In half an hour, two or three catties of stone snails were smashed.
After sending the skewered snail meat, the three of them brought a small stool, sat around the barbecue grill, picked up a can of beer, pulled off the pull ring, and drank it in a big gulp.
"It's so fragrant, can you eat it?Don't forget to smear some honey and barbecue sauce!" Zhou Yuhang said to Zhang Fan as he looked at the snail skewers added to the barbecue.
"Come, take these ten skewers and try them first!" Then, Zhang Fan put the grilled meat on the plate, and continued to put the snail skewers on the grill, turning them back and forth.
A mouthful of beer and snail meat were sent to their mouths, Zhou Yuhang, Chen Baoli, and Wang Feihong killed ten skewers in a few minutes, and looked at the meat skewers in Zhang Fan's hand with unfinished eyes.
"Damn! I haven't eaten at noon, I have eaten it up so quickly, so I can leave half a skewer for me!" Zhang Fan looked at the empty plate and wailed.
"No, it's too delicious, not enough to stuff your teeth! If you don't bake it quickly, how can you enjoy it?" Zhou Yuhang wiped the saliva on the side of his mouth and "complained".
In front of the roasted snail meat with such a delicious meat, he just wanted to finish eating one skewer and another skewer, in short, he couldn't stop.
"It's really a pain in your back when you sit and eat meat!, come and roast it!" Zhang Fan immediately rolled his eyes, and secretly said that he hadn't eaten the skewers for a long time, so he didn't bother to make such an unreasonable request.
"Okay, I'll go to the kitchen and find a piece of tin foil. Then, Zhou Yuhang came over with a roll of tin foil and waved his hand to let Zhang Fan sit on the other side.
He tore off a large piece and spread it on the right side of the barbecue grill, poured an appropriate amount of peanut oil into it, then put the snail skewers on it, brushed with minced garlic, wrapped it in tin foil, waited for the charcoal temperature to cook it, and then coated it with seasoning sauce.
Sure enough, after using the tin foil, it was much faster, and in less than ten minutes, the meat skewers in the tin foil were ready to be grilled.
As soon as Zhou Yuhang opened the tin foil, a fragrance rushed into his nose, "It's so fragrant!"
Before he could pick it up and taste how it tasted, Zhang Fan had already quickly sent a string of left and right strings into his mouth, and his hand speed was unmatched.
"Leave some for us!" Seeing this, Chen Baoli, Wang Feihong, and Zhou Yuhang were not far behind, so they took a few more strings and kept them in their bowls to taste slowly.
"This roasting method is good, the name of the foodie is really expected!" After eating enough throat, Zhang Fan gave a thumbs up to Zhou Yuhang.
"Hehe, brother, what else can you use in your refrigerator to bake?"
"Yes, yes, roasted eggplant, cabbage, corn or something, perfect!"
Chen Baoli and Wang Feihong echoed one after the other, obviously planning to open their bellies and roast enough rhythm.
"It's addictive to baking, isn't it? The refrigerator is in the kitchen, you can eat whatever you want!" Zhang Fan pointed in the direction of the kitchen, and they tossed it by themselves, saving their appetite for dinner.
…
The next morning, Zhang Fan got up and opened the curtains to see that there was a rain and mist outside, and the dripping raindrops were strung together into a huge bead curtain, enveloping the earth like smoke and clouds, and with the oblique wind falling on the rain fence, stones, leaves, vegetable seedlings, and flower buds, interweaving a graceful symphony.
Stretching his waist, after going downstairs to wash up, he came to the dining room, and Zhang Fan saw his aunt, uncle, and Zhou Yuhang eating breakfast, including eel porridge, boiled peanut rice, green onion egg cake, and Yangzhou fried noodles.
"On such a rainy day, it's so lazy, why does everyone get up so early?" Zhang Fan came over with a bowl of porridge and sat down, and said.
When I was a child, I didn't have to go out to do farm work with my uncle and aunt on a rainy day, I just slept openly and stayed at home to play, which made people nostalgic.
"Seeing that this rain can fall into the afternoon, what do you want to eat at noon?" asked the aunt.
Now my nephew's industry is in full swing, and the life of the family is getting better and better, so I don't have to worry about stopping my hands and mouths as before, and I won't have rice to cook if I don't work. Therefore, on such a rainy day, she simply stayed at home with her husband to sleep lazily, do hygiene, and watch TV.
"Auntie, what do you do, we eat, it's all so delicious anyway. Zhou Yuhang touched his round belly and smiled.
"Brother, I can't go anywhere in this weather, it's a little boring!"
"I don't want to sleep if I'm too lazy, what's there to pass the time?"
"Playing mahjong and fighting landlords?"
Just as Chen Baoli, Wang Feihong, and Manager Liang were discussing what to play when they were full of food and had nothing to do, Zhang Fan came and said: "There are just five people, team up to play King Pesticide!"
"Okay!"
So, after Zhang Fan finished breakfast, everyone took out their mobile phones to click on the game page, selected the heroes they were good at, and began to team up to play King Pesticides.
I thought they were rookies, but I didn't expect everyone to play more and more smoothly after a few rounds of running-in, and they were even more tacit and cooperated seamlessly.
It wasn't until the rain stopped in the afternoon that everyone quit the game and stood up to move their hands and feet.
At this time, Zhang Fan saw his uncle Zhang Liye wearing a bamboo leaf hat, wearing a rain coat, carrying a hoe and preparing to go out, and asked, "Uncle, what are you going to dig with this full arm?"
"When the rain stopped, I went to dig some bamboo shoots near the small valley and came back. Uncle replied.
"Wow! Spring bamboo shoots in this period, the bamboo shoots are fat, white as jade, the meat is tender, delicious and refreshing, but the king of vegetables!" As soon as he heard about eating, foodie Zhou Yuhang always reacted one step faster.
"Spring bamboo shoots are also known as mountain eight treasures, when cooking, whether it is cold dressing, fried or boiled soup, they are fresh and fragrant, and it is one of the delicacies that people like very much. Manager Liang added.
"I'm drooling for the two of you, why don't we go digging spring bamboo shoots with Uncle Zhang!" Wang Feihong suggested.
"There aren't so many raincoats, bring an umbrella. The aunt found three raincoats and two umbrellas and explained to Zhang Fan.
Distributing the raincoat and umbrella to everyone, Zhang Fan looked at their feet and said: "It is inevitable that you will get mud when digging bamboo shoots, so it is better to go out in sneakers." ”
After getting ready, everyone followed Uncle Zhang Liye to the place where bamboo shoots were dug, in fact, it was the place where more than a dozen bamboo trees were planted.
Putting down the dustpan, Uncle Zhang Liye began to look for it at the root of the bamboo.
"How do you know where to dig bamboo shoots?" asked Chen Baoli.
"The first step is to find the bamboo shoots. This is mainly to pick up the debris and bamboo leaves on the ground to see if there are some strange protrusions or some thin cracks on the soil surface. If there is, there will generally be bamboo shoots underneath. The uncle who looked at the soil replied.
After receiving the uncle's words, Zhang Fan continued to explain: "This is actually looking for gold across the soil. Like the one that is ready to be dug now, the bamboo leaves are thick green with yellow spots, which is the pregnant bamboo shoot bamboo. Digging in the cracks in the topsoil around it, there are definitely bamboo shoots. ”
Moso bamboo is also divided into "male" and "female". If the first section of mature moso bamboo is a single branch, it is a male bamboo, and there must be no bamboo shoots around. If the first section branches in pairs and grows symmetrically, it is a mother bamboo. As the name suggests, there must be bamboo shoots around it.
After finding the mother bamboo, carefully observe the direction of the top tip of the mother bamboo drooping, and the place where the dew drops on the bamboo tip is the place where the bamboo shoots grow. In addition, there is a main bamboo whip in the lower part of each bamboo, and the bamboo whip extension direction parallel to the plane composed of the first symmetrical bamboo branch is often the place where the bamboo shoots grow.
Moso bamboo is also divided into male and female, and the natural world is really wonderful!
