Japanese cuisine also makes tempura with sea urchins, which are wrapped in basil leaves and fried in a coat like a small purse. Perilla leaves have a shaping effect and bring a refreshing and special herbal fragrance.

The sultry charm of this dish is the strong contrast of taste, the skin is crisp raw shiso leaves, and the inner core is between raw and cooked, like a soft-boiled egg, with a hint of cool sweetness, which is addictive.

In Spain, sea urchin is often eaten with bread, cut off the top half of the shell, and gently scoop out the sea urchin yellow with bread. It's not as thick as the sea urchin sashimi of Japanese cuisine, but it's not as sweet as ever.

The Italian island of Sicily is rich in seafood, and Spaghetti ai Ricci di Mare is a signature dish. Fresh sea urchin sautéed with olive oil, sea salt and garlic until fragrant, then add the already cooked pasta and sprinkle with a dash of parsley. The delicious sea urchin is transformed into a thick sauce that envelops each sticky pasta.

In Chinese food, sea urchin has a more homely method, steaming eggs directly. Many of the chilled sea urchins bought back in the market are sometimes not so complete underneath, so they are simply broken up and mixed with eggs to make steamed sea urchin eggs.

Sea urchin and eggs have a unique umami flavor that fits perfectly. From the outside, it may seem unremarkable, but the delicious and plump seafood hidden in the smooth steamed eggs is definitely a little surprise.

In the end, the boss simply took out a bottle of liquor, cracked a dozen sea urchins and scallops, sprinkled them, and used a little fire......

Boy

It's so cool!

Rest overnight on Zhangzi Island, end the trip to Dalian, and leave the Northeast. Going straight to Guizhou, I have long wanted to go to Miao Village to experience different customs.

Call Song Qiao to choose a local Miao tour guide, Jinni, petite, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, revealing a sense of spirituality.

500,000 casually buy an off-road vehicle, go straight to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, the girl is very lively, the voice is like a lark, crisp and pleasant, chirping to introduce all kinds of customs.

"When many people talk about ethnic minority gathering places, it seems that it is none other than Yunnan, which faces the Erhai Lake and is backed by Cangshan Mountain, the famous Tengchong, Wonderland Shangri-La and Xishuangbanna......

wrinkled his little nose and said unconvinced: "Xijiang is in Guizhou, just like Lijiang is in Yunnan, there are too many ethnic characteristics. For example, the stilted building of the wind and rain bridge, silver clothing, and the ...... of long table banquets"

"There is also the mysterious Miao culture, the comfortable pastoral life, the lights of thousands of homes in the depths of the mountains, and the unique wooden buildings and ancient villages of the Miao people......"

"All in all: as long as you come to Xijiang Miao Village, you can definitely meet all your imagination!"

Johnson leaned comfortably, squinting, the weather was fine, the sun was shining on his body, lazy, and he didn't want to move. Three hours later, I arrived at the destination, got off the bus, and began to enter Miao Village.

From stepping into the walled gate, accompanied by the laughter of the locals singing and dancing, drinking twelve barricade wines, all packed in bamboo tubes, listening to the little girl say that the degree is not high, only forty-two degrees......

There is no way, I can only drink three cups in a row, this is the most solemn welcome etiquette of the Miao people, which means blessings, who dares not to drink?

Xijiang itself is a huge original ecological museum, the world's largest gathering place for the Miao people. Various well-preserved ancient buildings on both sides. Stilted buildings, seven wind and rain bridges, the first stop is the seventh wind and rain bridge.

The whole village is composed of ten villages connected to each other, and the villagers still live a primitive life. There are large terraced fields everywhere, and all the way through the ridges, Dong Chou's "Rice Fragrance" has been echoing in my ears:

As the Daoxiang River continues to run...... Songs of the countryside, eternal dependence, go home, return to the original beauty......

Especially when you climb along the mountain path to the ancient pavilion on the top of the mountain, you will meet a group of sketching art students, and from their brushes, they will depict a more personalized terraced landscape and the ancient buildings of Miao Village. The rich atmosphere of village life, the villagers holding bamboo knots, and the houses with smoke curling......

Suddenly, a light rain drifted in the sky, but it reflected the unique charm of Miao Village, adding a refreshing and heart-warming.

Walking on the main street, the stores are vaguely modern and prosperous, but they do not lose the characteristics of the Miao family. It not only satisfies the needs of a tourist who comes here for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also can feel the national characteristics.

From time to time, you will see the store's unique Miao style to greet you, some young men blow reed sheng, and there are also beautiful Miao girls holding horn cups to pour you full of barricade wine.

With a tambourine and guitar or ukulele in a music shop on the street, every song played in the store can unexpectedly touch people's hearts and go straight to the heart at this moment.

Under the leadership of Ginny, we left the main street and came to the humble B&B, walked into the hillside lanes, and saw the ordinary people. Further prosperity and retreat from the quaint, those stilted buildings have an indisputable tranquility, which makes people yearn for it.

Thick moss grows on the mottled wooden boards, and the old house carries the memories of the old man. The layout is tortuous and steep, and the daily life has made many elderly people hunchbacked, but it still has not changed their desire for a happy life, and their faces are full of kind and optimistic smiles......

Along the winding path, walking past the elderly and children, chatting and selling pork in front of the house, and the laborers who are trying to lift the stairs, the pictures in front of you are filled with tranquility and indisputability.

Find the most luxurious B&B to live in, get hungry and start foraging. Ginny was very excited, pulling Johnson's mouth like a machine gun, and he couldn't stop.

Originally, this shop was called Zhou Mei Snack Bar, but later the business became more and more popular, so it simply registered a trademark and changed its name to a rural farmer. If you ask any local person any good food recommendation, they will say this one. ”

When everyone came to the door of an antique shop, Jinni introduced: "It has been open for five years, and the original soup in Qingshui, stewed with fresh and high-quality beef and mutton, has no fishy smell. Beef powder, like mutton powder, coriander to enhance the flavor, the soup is good, fragrant but not oily!"

"Next to Huinong sour soup, ten years old shop, her chili pepper is homemade, drink a sour soup before eating powder, the soup base is bone broth, plus a slightly spicy sour soup, with bacon handmade rice skin or rice noodles, meat foam, sausages, quail eggs, a full bowl, absolutely enjoyable, but unfortunately only sold in the morning ......"

"Tang Ji five-color glutinous rice, glutinous rice, purple vine, yellow flower, maple leaf, red silk thread, soaked liquid, combined and steamed, colorful, symbolizing a good life, there are two flavors. The salty ones are mixed with leek root and spicy salted vegetables, and the sweet ones are sprinkled with peanuts, sugar, primers, and bean noodles, and the two flavors are completely different......"

Eat while walking, all kinds of snacks are available, and finally come to a shop, in the ancient alley of Gage, not even facing the street, called a red brick house, the little girl is especially recommended.

The ceiling lamp in the center of the lobby is made by the owner, 2,888 butterflies are reflected on the wall under the light, and even the frame of the lamp is made of handmade silver, which is said to take 20 days.

The store is decorated with a variety of Miao embroidery paintings, and even the batik pillows are also in the owner's private collection. Entering the private room, Ginny smiled: "You have to know this restaurant by senior local foodies, even if there are tourists who come to eat, it is all a mistake." Not only is the taste very good, but the key is that he can order many dishes that are not available in other restaurants in Xijiang at his house, which belongs to the private cuisine of the master chef. ”

Johnson is very satisfied, eat the most distinctive classics, otherwise what to do?

Let the little girl order, all the characteristics come again. The first thing to serve is the secret eggplant, known as the five-star recommendation, the chef's specialty. Pick up a piece, the eggplant skin is roasted with sauce but not mushy, and the meat foam is cooked at the same time, the meat is fragrant into the eggplant, and then wrapped in a thickened sauce, which is very good.

Secret tofu, look like tofu balls, put it in the mouth only to find that the tofu is tender and soft local water tofu, wrap a layer, and then fry in the pot, the heat is just right, with tomato meat foam sweetness, fresh fragrance, sweet aftertaste.

Teppanyaki beef, fresh free-range paddy field beef, the meat is fresh and tender, and then seasoned with black pepper, piping hot teppanyaki, locking the aroma of beef, with the umami of green peppers......

Sour soup fish, Xijiang signboard, sour soup is made naturally without any additives. The fish is made of river balls, with few spines and tender meat, dancing on the tip of the tongue, sweating all over the body, and feasting on it.

The highlight is the rice wine and yogurt, I heard the owner say that the rice wine is good because his family does not accept the long table banquet, there will be no waste of the toasting process, so the choice of more mellow and better quality rice wine. The yogurt is also made of big brand yogurt, with a sweet taste and just the right side dishes.

After a full meal, he returned to the B&B, let Ginny put on the national costume, and her ears sounded like a lark-like golden voice, melodious and crisp, lingering and compassionate, and she couldn't help but smash the yellow dragon and pour thousands of miles......

Kneel under your crotch and sing mountain songs:

A stream of green water protects the village,

Castle Hill stilt building on both sides of the strait.

Thousands of years to get a thousand villages,

Immerse yourself in a fairyland and forget your sorrows.
