1280.Zouma Fishing Island (1/5)
The younger generation's understanding of sweet potato roast is estimated to come from the TV series "Bright Sword", where Chief Li has three hobbies, scolding the mother of sweet potato burning and fighting elites, for him, the greatest joy in life is drinking sweet potato roast and scolding the elite troops of the mother and fighting devils.
In the TV series, sweet potato roast is a good thing, and only those who have made meritorious contributions have the opportunity to drink two sips, and after drinking, they are all fluttering.
At one point, Ao Muyang guessed that during the filming of the TV series, the crew used fat house happy water, if it was really sweet potato burning, then the actor could still show such a cheerful expression after drinking it, which was really a god acting.
As the saying goes, melon dry wine is bitter, corn wine is sweet, and sorghum wine is fragrant. Sweet potato roast is generally a wine made from dried sweet potatoes, don't look at the sweet potato itself is sweet, but after brewing, it is not that taste, no matter how you deal with it, there is always a bitter taste in the wine.
The reason why sweet potato roasting was popular in mountain villages in the past was because of the high yield of sweet potatoes, and no one was willing to use corn and sorghum to make wine, which were all grains used to fill the stomach.
Ao Muyang wanted to take a sip and wanted to make a cup, but the old man Ao Zhibing was amused by his appearance: "Don't waste, don't waste, this wine doesn't taste good, but after all, it is pure grain wine." The island is cold and humid, and I have been here for two years and have nothing to do, all thanks to this wine. โ
The black dragon took a sip, nodded with feeling, and gave the old man a thumbs up.
Zhong Cang said: "Uncle Bing, I think that our bones can withstand the sea breeze and moisture because we have eaten yellow eels, and the yellow eels raised by the boss are really strong." โ
Hearing him say this, Wang Xia's face was red.
Ao Muyang pushed the wine glass to the black dragon and said, "Come, Brother Long, if you like it, then I'll give it to you, I'll be free, or drink a bowl of hot tea." โ
Ao Zhibing shook his head regretfully and said: "It's a pity not to drink it, there are not many people in the village who can brew such authentic sweet potato roast now, this is the wine that our fishermen should drink." โ
As he said before, Ao Muyang's parents used this wine when they got married, and in the past thirty years, all the red and white ceremonies in the village were roasted with sweet potatoes.
Without him, there is little land in the fishing village, although it is fertile, but the big guy is reluctant to plant rice and wheat, and he is all planting sweet potatoes and corn, so the most wine brewed is sweet potato wine.
Ao Zhibing took another sip, he smashed it and sighed, with a look of aftertaste.
Ao Muyang picked up the cup and looked at it, and drank it with the determination to charge with Chief Li, this wine is really strong, from the mouth to the stomach, he estimates that if he goes to pee by himself, he may be able to pee.
The hot pot was boiled, and the snow-white fish meat was poured into it and immediately tumbled.
Barracuda meat is tender and well cooked, but wild fish meat may contain coral toxins, so heat it up to destroy the toxicity by high temperatures.
The black dragon didn't care, so he put his chopsticks in the bowl and ate them quickly.
Ao Muyang was surprised: "This has no tongue and doesn't delay eating." โ
The black dragon smiled and opened his mouth to signal to him: Lao Tzu still has a little tongue.
Ao Zhibing took two chopsticks and said, "This wild sea wolf meat is still delicious, but it can't compare to snake meat." I was young that year, and your grandfather was still there, and we went to sea together, hehe, once I caught several sea snakes, which were stewed in a pot and roasted with this sweet potato, and I can still remember the fragrance when I dream. โ
Zhong Cang said: "Isn't there a sea snake in our fishing grounds? It's so big, I touched it the last time I dived, and it swam out of the coral reef and scared me." โ
Wang Xia, who had been concentrating on preparing the dishes, turned around and said: "That snake can't be eaten, don't look at it as a snake, it's quite sensible, every time I feed it fish and meat, it knows how to nod and thank you." โ
Ao Zhibing said: "That must not be eaten, it is the heart meat of the dragon's head in the water." โ
Ao Muyang said with a smile after eating a piece of hot fish meat: "Grandpa Bing, you are really wrong, it is the heart of the Fรผhrer, if it wasn't for the fact that the Fรผhrer liked to tease it before, I would have used it to make wine." โ
"Why don't you fish it up and eat it now?" Ao Zhibing asked expectantly.
Ao Muyang was about to drink the fish soup, and his hands trembled and almost spilled the soup: "Don't, that snake is now your assistant, if someone comes to steal the fish, you can catch the snake and throw it on their boat." โ
The sea snake king has been raised by Fu Guozheng since he was an egg, and he grew up in a cage since he was a child, and he is big, but he is actually timid, and it is best to scare people, because it is not aggressive, and most sea snakes are not aggressive.
A pot of fish soup uses fish heads and fish bones, the stewed soup is thick and white, Ao Muyang poured some sweet potatoes into the soup bowl, which tastes delicious and spicy, which is a perfect match.
Five people ate a fish, this fish has a weight of more than ten catties, the fish meat is delicate and delicious, the soup is fresh and fragrant, and the people who eat it can't stop chopsticks.
The area of Brick Island is actually quite large, like half of Longtou Village, and there is nothing to do on the island except to go to the sea to look for barracudas, so Ao Muyang wanders around.
Speaking of which, he has been contracting Brick Island for many days, but he has not been around.
Spring also came to the island, although it is a stone island, but there are a lot of flowers and plants on the island, and there are some trees.
Ao Muyang walked around the island, surrounded by barnacles, some seagulls used Brick Island as a foothold, the south of the island is the territory of people, and the north is the territory of seagulls.
The image of seagulls in many literature and films is that of brave and resolute seabirds, in fact, their personalities are really bad, Lao Ao arrived at the north of the island, and there were seagulls up to peck him.
Several seagulls circled above him, like small bombers, and from time to time bird droppings fell, blowing Lao Ao around.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared in the air, and the seagulls scattered in a hurry.
Ao Muyang looked up and saw the queen stretching her wings and flying majestically at a low altitude, and the sea breeze blew its iron-gray feathers to hunt, which was very powerful.
Suddenly seeing the queen here, Ao Muyang's heart was filled with some surprises, and he beckoned again and again.
He didn't have the idea of keeping the queen as a pet, the queen is different from the general, it is an endangered species, and it should go to the wild to survive and reproduce.
Presumably, the queen followed the yacht to Brick Island, and she usually didn't show up when she had nothing to do, but just stayed in the sky and silently protected him.
Thinking about it like this, Ao Muyang was a little moved.
Seeing him beckoning, the queen immediately flew down and landed on his shoulder as usual.
The tiger's claws were rough and powerful, and they grabbed his shoulders like iron claws, and he grinned in pain.
The seagulls were frightened and flew around, chirping as they flew, and some small birds on the reef heard the terrible cry and ran out in fright, and it turned out to be a seagull nest.
Some seagulls were frightened and then played to fly in the north, the north of the island is high, and there are some cliffs that stand up, very steep, Zhong Cang and Ao Zhibing and others have not been there.
Seeing that the seagulls were about to fly past, a flock of blackbirds flew out of the cliff and mixed with the flock of seagulls.
