Chapter 211: This Is a Gooseneck Barnacle!
();
No, fiddler crabs are also good food, so you shouldn't waste them.
Especially after confirming that there are good mangoes on this island, Chen Fan thought of a delicacy.
That's something like a drunken crab.
Because in the previous time and space, he watched a food show in Taiguo, and there was a group of island fishermen, so they sliced lemons, mixed with wild peppers, sugar, and salt, and made a pickled food, which tasted sweet and sour, and became the Internet celebrity food in the hands of the year!
But, then again, I've caught more than 20 little green dragons now, why do you need that little fiddler crab?
Isn't it because of myself that I have enough food?
If you don't have enough food, you're afraid that you will be able to bring back the barnacles that can be seen everywhere.
Thinking of this, where a sudden flash of inspiration appeared, the piece of the big reef that was covered by seaweed and kelp, Chen Fan directly picked out a piece and said:
"Friends, let's not hide it, I told you a wrong thing a few days ago, that is, the gooseneck barnacle I said is actually wrong, what I ate that day is actually not, just the common barnacle genus, this one, is the real gooseneck barnacle. ”
The gooseneck barnacle is uglier and bigger, and it's called "the food of hell," and its body is like a short, fat earthworm with a shell on its head, and it's so dense that it feels super disgusting. ”
It's disgusting though.
But Chen Fan's eyes were shining.
It's a gooseneck barnacle, a super high-end seafood dish, and the taste is very delicious.
Although Chen Fan has also eaten barnacles, they are not authentic gooseneck barnacles, the kind he ate before is called turtle feet, which belong to the same genus as gooseneck barnacles, but they don't look so similar.
The head of the "turtle foot" is wrapped by eight sharp shell plates, the muscles of the handle are very developed, and there are rough "scales" on the outside like the claws of the turtle, so it can be named the turtle foot, of course, there are many names, such as dog claw snail, stone toad, Guanyin palm, etc., the folk also have a more poetic name, call it a pen holder.
Because of how its head looks.
It's like a pen holder.
But what Chen Fan found today was a serious gooseneck barnacle.
He's like a string of horses' hooves, no, it's the neck of a real swan, it's still obviously different from a turtle's foot.
And among barnacles, it is relatively rare, mostly found in the coastal area of the North Atlantic, common in low temperatures, lack of human traces, so the price is also more expensive.
In general, in the market, the kind that used to be eaten could be sold for 200 yuan per catty, while the price of gooseneck barnacles doubled.
Chen Fan thought about it for a while, today the goats and small green shrimp are used as dry food, and he privately wants to go back, get the air cushion raft, and transport these back...
Well, it was decided.
As for the main food of the main meal, it is this newly discovered gooseneck barnacle.
Because the sea area is environmentally friendly and clear, it is also very safe to eat.
Chen Fan excitedly ran to the reef where the big waves were crashing, stepping on these delicacies in the world, and at the moment when Chen Fan's wound that was bitten and swollen by mosquitoes and ruptured by blisters touched the seawater, it almost made him ascend to immortal directly.
"Shhh
Gritting his teeth, Chen Fan unconsciously said: "I bear it!"
For a delicate foodie, no matter how painful it is, you have to eat.
The ocean is a complex ecosystem that has given rise to countless cuisines, most of which we have heard of, but there are also some strange and strange-looking seafood.
The first time you look at it.
I can't help but associate it with those unpalatable foods!
Even stomach acid, nausea and vomiting, gooseneck barnacles are such existences.
And it is difficult to pick, this kind of marine life, only appears in the intertidal zone with a relatively high drop, strong waves, and strong winds.
This kind of place is always dangerous, and even fishermen who often catch the sea do not particularly like this kind of place.
I remember that in the previous life, the English BBC had filmed a film called "The Gluttonous Feast of the Billionaires".
This seafood is introduced inside, and some video clips of shellfish pickers risking their lives to pick gooseneck barnacles were filmed.
The most impressive passage above is:
Every year, there are shellfish pickers who pay with their lives for gooseneck barnacles.
"Friends, let me tell you a piece of information, in Western countries, the top gooseneck barnacles can be sold for about 300 to 500 euros, (about 4,000 yuan in Huaxia) a catty.
In 2016, at a seafood auction in West Banya, the unit price of gooseneck barnacles was auctioned at a high price of 1,200 euros (about 9,400 yuan in Huaxia) a catty.
Anyway, it's very expensive.
However, most of these treasures, like black gold abalone and Australian lobster, are not in our own China, so it is also my luck to be able to meet a piece here today.
However, I'm mixed right now because it's no longer safe.
Due to the high tide, most of the reef here is flooded by seawater.
The waves more than two meters high slapped on the reef, splashing four or five meters of waves, and poured him three meters away!
In the face of such an environment, even if Chen Fan was a man at the top of the food chain, even if he had more ideas, he didn't dare to stay for too long, and after picking about three catties of barnacles, he still quickly evacuated this reef area.
"Hee-huh...... Scrub scrub. Wash and scrub... ”
"Rub, rub!"
"I'm a devil's minions. ”
Chen Fan stood back in the safe area, the small waterhole with his back to the big reef, cleaned the attachments from the gooseneck barnacles, and then began to eat them raw.
Because the mollusk was similar to oysters and could be eaten raw, he decided to take only half of it back to his shelter.
I don't know why, looking at these extremely ugly seafood, Chen Fan couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Well, guys, now, I'm really sad, because why? Because I find that the sea here is so rich in resources, no wonder it attracts so many animals.
That's probably why there are so many vipers here!"
Speaking of this, Chen Fan thought a little more, that is, the method of doing this.
How Westerners cook, he Chen Fan doesn't know, but he thinks that the practices of similar things should not be very different.
If it is a well-known method in China, and it is also the most delicious way to deal with most seafood, that is:
Directly use seawater, boil it directly under the water pot, cook it, add some white vinegar and ginger shreds, or a plate of light soy sauce, which is delicious.
"By the way, do you know that on the seaside, people usually call soy sauce by name?"
Chen Fan suddenly thought of something special for Coke, so he asked the audience in the live broadcast room. I want to talk with more like-minded people about "Live Broadcast of the Wilderness Survival Integration System", pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
