Chapter 205, The First Meal in the Jungle!
Tang Fan tied eight dead sparrows with tough grass strips, hung them on his backpack, and then approached the river to find a suitable place to cook them.
Although the vegetation is abundant, there are often rocky flats near the river, which is the best place for cooking.
Randomly found an open rocky beach, Tang Fan cleaned up the ground a little, and then built a simple stove with a few larger stones, this thing has no technical content, anyway, he only cooks one meal, just make do with it.
After the stove was set up, it was time to deal with the ingredients, Tang Fan found two leaves of an unknown plant similar to banana leaves, and took the eight sparrows and a large handful of mushrooms to the river.
Being close to the big river has this advantage, not worrying about the water source, whether it is drinking water or cooking, it is very convenient......
He removed all the sparrows, cleaned them with the water of the river, and cleaned some of the mushrooms and mint leaves from his backpack, and put them all on the two big leaves.
When Tang Fan dealt with the sparrow, he did not completely plane, but opened a hole in the back of the sparrow's fart, and when he took out all the internal organs and washed away the blood and water inside, he put the cleaned mint leaves and mushroom stoppers into the sparrow's stomach, and by the way, he also sprinkled some salt into it, and the surface of the sparrow was also rubbed with salt.
After doing this, the open hole is opened with a few straw bundles, and a few fresh branches are cut off to peel off the bark, and the sparrows that have been placed are put on the whole thing, and the ingredients are considered to be processed.
Naturally, the ingredients are used for barbecue.
Tang Fan doesn't have a pot, so he can't cook any clever dishes, so he can only use this most primitive and simple cooking method, and if he doesn't bake something to eat in the wild, he always feels that this style of painting is a little wrong......
The eight sparrows were placed side by side on the oversized simple stone stove, and the preliminary preparations were completed, and now all it was necessary to fire.
Dry firewood or something is very common in the jungle, and you can find a large bundle full of them with a casual stroke, Tang Fan also has a lighter on him, so he doesn't have to drill wood to make fire or something, so under the simple stove made of stones, soon, the raging flames burned.
But the fire was rising, but the meal was not so easy to make.
Although Tang Fan is a chef, he is used to stir-frying in a big pot, and he really can't cope with this kind of open flame barbecue, he played the same barbecue when he was a child, and he also grilled mutton skewers or something at home, but it was charcoal, and the difference between this open flame and the current one is not ordinary.
The flame of the open flame is too strong, and it is not easy to control, and the slightest carelessness will scorch the skin of the meat, which can easily cause the embarrassing situation of 'uncooked outside'.
So if you want to bake good food, the fire can't be too big, and you have to keep turning the roasting sticks, and Tang Fan still roasts eight sparrows together - with his current amount of food, he can't eat enough if he doesn't bake so much......
So you can imagine how busy Tang Fan was with this meal.
"What's the deal, it's really all a lie, as long as you mention survival in the wild, then the protagonist will definitely be extra handy for barbecue...... But Lao Tzu bakes so carefully as a chef, why are they so?!Could it be that Lao Tzu is a fake protagonist?" Tang Fan wiped the sweat on his head in his busy schedule, and he felt very deceived in his heart......
However, a chef is a chef, and Tang Fan's control has been greatly improved after becoming a martial artist, so after baking for a while, he gradually became familiar with the rhythm and was no longer so busy.
And with the passage of time, the white and tender sparrow meat has been roasted into gold and red, and the oil is shiny, and the drops of fat slowly seep out of the skin and then condense together, and the sizzling sound falls into the fire, splashing bright sparks.
Eight golden red and oily sparrows lined up together, and the scene was a tempting!
What's even more tempting is that there is already a strong aroma of barbecue permeating, and the seduced Tang Fan is full of gluttonous worms, drooling vigorously in his mouth.
But no matter how greedy you are, you have to wait until the meat is cooked before eating, the whole barbecue is the most time-consuming, about a slow fire after more than an hour, seeing that the surface of the sparrow began to be red and black, there is a tendency to burn, Tang Fan finally stopped adding firewood to the fire.
After the last dry wood in the stove was finally slowly extinguished, Tang Fan immediately couldn't wait to take out a huge plant leaf, put a sparrow with the most golden and attractive roast on the leaf, and the remaining seven continued to stand on the fire, letting the embers slowly roast.
"It's finally time to eat!"
Tang Fan rubbed his hands, directly picked up the dog-leg knife on the side and cut off a piece of meat like a dinner knife, and after blowing it a little bite, he didn't care if it was still hot, so he threw it directly into his mouth.
"Ha~"
When the slices of meat entered his mouth, Tang Fan first let out a hot breath of hot air, shaking his tongue back and forth, and after the slices of meat in his mouth were not so hot, he began to chew on them.
The piece he peeled is the outermost meat skin, the most crispy part that has been burned, the entrance is full of the oil aroma of barbecue, and there is a faint smoke and fire, after the delicate sparrow meat is so grilled, the taste is first-class!
However, although the taste of this meat slice is good, it doesn't seem to be too amazing at first, and it tastes like an ordinary skewer.
But as he continued to chew, Tang Fan found that there seemed to be a taste in this meat, which was a faint cool breath, looming on the tip of his tongue......
"This is the taste of mint, after roasting for so long, the mint inside has really tasted. ”
When Tang Fan thought this in his heart, the piece of meat in his mouth had already been swallowed whole into his stomach.
He immediately swung the knife again, this time, he directly split the whole sparrow, and with this knife split, the mint and mushrooms hidden in the stomach were immediately exposed, and at the same time, a white mist rose, which was the water vapor evaporated from the mushrooms and mint, and a rich and abnormal fragrance exploded!
The fragrance is mixed with the unique fragrance of mushrooms, meat and mint, and the smell is already intoxicating.
Tang Fan couldn't wait to cut off a piece of meat again, this time, he cut a big piece, and even the belt meat was cut directly to the belly.
And with the entrance of the meat piece this time, Tang Fan's taste buds exploded directly!
The crispiness of the skin, the aroma of the grilled meat, the smell of barbecue fireworks, the tender bird meat, and the light aroma of mushrooms are dipped in the meat...... This kind of delicious exploding rich layering is nothing.
What really made Tang Fan feel incredible was the coolness in the fragrant and tender meat!
The small piece of meat just now, because it is the most superficial layer, the aroma of mint was not completely soaked, but this time the piece of meat contains the abdominal meat closest to mint, and the unique cool taste of mint is directly soaked to the full.
As a result, the special cool breath belonging to mint directly overflowed Tang Fan's mouth!
Can you imagine, it is obviously a hot barbecue, and it is full of piping hot when it first enters the mouth, but when you eat it, it has a cool feeling......
Two very different sensations appeared in the mouth at the same time, it was like two heavens of ice and fire, so strange that it couldn't be more bizarre, but it was also so delicious that it couldn't be more delicious!
"Nima, this tastes amazing!!"
