Chapter 23 Fishing and Barbecue

Qin Yi just fixed the boat, turned around to take the fishing rod, and found that this guy Lai Pi was holding an apple and gnawing vigorously! Qin Yi couldn't cry or laugh, this little guy was at ease, he was sleeping in the cabin just now, and now he woke up and started eating!

Regardless of it, Qin Yi put the earthworm through the hook, stood at the bow of the boat and began to shake the hook!

Another few minutes passed, Qin Yi still didn't gain anything, and looking at the sparkling water around him, he suddenly felt a little absent-minded. Flapping the hook intermittently in his hand, looking at the clear stream, from time to time a group of a few, a dozen trout with black spots passed through the aquatic weeds, swaying leisurely.

As for the Asian carp that floods the Mississippi River and there are many in the Sun River, only a few are seen on this side of the creek, not many. In order to protect the living environment of wild trout, the ranch used to hire people to clean up the Asian carp in the creeks and lakes, and then set up a high barrage net at the confluence of the creek and the Sun River to prevent the fish from jumping over.

While this will not completely eliminate Asian carp, it will still largely ensure that wild trout will not be affected. Of course, it costs a lot of money to hire someone to clean it up, but the trout here is well protected and the scenery is beautiful, which attracts many tourists who love trout fishing, so the trout in the ranch is also a source of income for the ranch. As long as the ranch creeks and lakes don't overflow, the rest of Qin Yi doesn't care! However, it is still necessary to keep doing the carp cleanup.

Thinking about it for a while, he came back to his senses, looking at these fat herring grass carp, Qin Yi moved his mind again, when Nima was making ** silk in China, he didn't eat fish once a month or two, there were so many here, foreigners didn't know how to enjoy it!

Suddenly, as the boat shook slightly, Ye Fang shouted in a low voice and eagerly: "Xiao Yizi, hurry up, take the net!" I've got one! ”

Qin Yi hurriedly put down the fishing rod in his hand, and quickly picked up the small net pocket in the cabin and walked over! But the fish was a little far away, Qin Yi was lying on the side of the boat and stretched out his hand, and the net pocket couldn't reach it.

"I'm going to go boating, get closer and go straight to the net!" Qin Yi put down the net pocket and went to untie the rope and quickly rowed to the fish!

Rappi didn't gnaw on the apples anymore, looking at the powerful trout struggling in the water, his little eyes were round, and he probably hadn't seen this scene.

At this time, Ye Fang experienced the initial excitement, which had already been reflected, and began to skate the fish, and reel in as the boat moved.

"Haha, it's not small, I grilled it at night and tasted it, this kind of wild trout is very rare in China!" Ye Fang was very happy to look at the trout that basically didn't run, he was not rare in farmed trout, there were farms in the capital, but the wild ones, he hadn't eaten them a few times!

Qin Yi also smacked his mouth, this product has never even been farmed, domestically farmed trout, dozens of yuan a catty, at that time, I was reluctant to eat!

Both foodies are looking forward to the barbecue in the evening!

A few meters away, it didn't take much effort to row, stop the boat, Qin Yi lay on the boat, stretched out the net pocket to fish, Ye Fang cooperated to pull the net pocket, without much effort, the two scooped the trout into the boat with a net bag.

"It's really not small, it's almost 40 centimeters, it's 3 pounds!" Qin Yi handed the net pocket to Ye Fang and asked him to take a look at it.

"This should be a rainbow trout, you see the belly of the fish here, a red band."

The trout struggled fiercely in the water, and when it got out of the water, it stopped struggling, Ye Fang poured the fish out, and turned it over with both hands.

Lai Pi was also curiously watching on the side, pointing to the rainbow trout, jumping up and down and squeaking at Qin Yi, it was estimated that it was the first time he had seen a fish, novelty!

"Haha, let Susie try it tonight!" Qin Yi doesn't know how to do it, he can roast it, so I'm afraid of wasting this good ingredient!

"Then I'll catch a few more, and you try one at night, you have to learn, you learned that I will eat with you!" Ye Fang laughed, he had just caught a rainbow trout, and the whole person was full of energy, and he would start work again soon!

"That's okay, you can fish for trout, I'm not hooked, I'll catch a few herring grass carp or something, Lao Mei doesn't like to eat, let's eat it ourselves!"

The two of them finished their division of labor and were busy with their own work.

If you don't fish for trout, the fishing method is simple, just bait, you don't need to make a nest, there are many fish. Qin Yi put the fishing rod on the side of the boat, handed it half of Laipi's apple, and took a big apple and nibbled it gently. Time passed quickly, Qin Yi caught more than a dozen in less than 1 hour, basically half a meter of big fish, every time you have to slip for a while to pull up, there are a few small fish, Qin Yi kept them, said that the small is only relative, each one is 20 centimeters, go back just braised it, the big ones are pickled, turn around and cut them into pieces and fry them to eat!

Qin Yi didn't take the bait again after fishing so much, slowly rowing the boat, running back and forth in places where the water was turbulent or there were many rocks, and Ye Fang had fish on the hook, so he took the net pocket to cooperate.

By 5 p.m., the rainbow trout and brown trout were added together, and 7 of them were fished, all of them were over 30 centimeters, and some small ones were left behind, and they were put back into the water to continue to grow. Qin Yi saw that the time was almost up, and he had to go back to prepare for the barbecue in the evening, so he took Ye Fang back, arrived at the dock, changed into a pickup truck and drove home, it was already 6 o'clock, Qin Yi didn't have time to clean up the fish, took Ye Fang to the warehouse to move barbecue grills, tables and chairs, and then went to the wine cellar to bring beer and red wine.

In the wine cellar, looking at those wine-making equipment, Qin Yi thought of a large number of fruits in the space, which he couldn't eat and used to make wine? This high-quality fruit should also make a good fruit wine, right? Alas, I originally just wanted to eat delicious fruits, but now it's better, and more can be eaten as food!

After doing this, Qin Yi called Ryan and asked him and Susie to come over to help first, the salad and trout still rely on Susie's craftsmanship, and the other cowboys came directly when they came back from grazing.

hung up the phone, and asked Ye Fang to divide the frozen beef in the refrigerator into pieces, dry it at room temperature for a while, and then roast it directly, and go to clean up those herring grass carp by himself. In Qin Yi's hometown, these fish are not called so, they are all called common names, bastards, mullet slices, silver carp or something, when I was a child, the water of the Cai River was still very clear, these fish can be touched, which is like now, many river sections are basically not able to see fish!

There is a small automatic fish killing machine in the kitchen, which cleans 3 or 4 carp in a minute, although it is still necessary to wash the cleaned carp twice by yourself, but you don't have to scale and remove the internal organs yourself, which has saved a lot of trouble! After cleaning up the carp, Ryan and Susie also arrived, and recently the vegetable seedlings have grown, and Susie will no longer go to graze, and concentrate on taking care of the vegetable garden, Ryan is already in the office of the worker's house, not far away, and will be able to come over soon.

It's all familiar, Qin Yi is not polite, let the two of them directly help!

"Susie, it's okay to use a machine to scale trout, right?" Qin Yi didn't know if using the machine would affect the meat quality of the trout, so he didn't move, and waited for Susie to clean it up.

"No problem, usually the food at home is cleaned by the machine, if the top chef may be particular, it doesn't matter if it is general."

Susie took over the cleaning of the fish, Qin Yi asked Ryan to help divide the meat pieces, Ye Fang, a guy who had never cooked before, cut the meat pieces with a lot of personality, the big knife was wielded, and the meat pieces were chopped with a bang, that is, they were different in width and thickness, and they were tired and sweaty, and they also made Qin Yi and Ryan sweat profusely!

But I think he hasn't done it after all, so it would be nice to be able to help.

"Third child, you rest first and let Ryan do it."

Ye Da grinned, and he was not embarrassed, "I'm tired to death, look at how easy you all look!" ”

Ryan was also happy, and explained with a smile: "This is frozen, you have to go down with a knife, you have to go down with a knife, you have to go down with a knife, and you have to be stable with a knife." ”

Saying that, put the meat flat, press it with his left hand, and quickly cut it with a knife in his right hand, and a piece of beef was separated, the cut was flat, and the thickness was even. Qin Yi also nodded, cut it like this and roast it to be evenly heated, and the whole piece can be roasted together, and it tastes good.

After watching it for a while, Qin Yi was not idle, cut the big carp into pieces, salted it, and kept it for tomorrow's fried fish pieces, and the small ones were marinated whole, whether it was braised or hung under the gallery to make dried fish, let's talk about it tomorrow.

"Yi, how are you going to eat trout?" Susie packed it up, not knowing what Qin Yi was planning.

"It takes more than 20 hours to freeze the sashimi at low temperature, but it's too late today, so let's bake it at night." Susie, who is the best craft, you or Ryan? ”

"Grilled fish also needs Susie to come, Yi, you don't know, Susie grilled fish is very powerful! It's a pity that I don't do it often, and I haven't eaten it for a while, but today I'm blessed! Ryan laughed on the side, and Susie smiled and didn't speak.

"Then let Susie grill the fish, I want to taste it too! Save one trout, I'll make a braised trout in the evening, and grilled fish for the rest. Susie nodded with a smile on the side, and asked Qin Yi to help slice the fish.

This Qin Yihui, after a while, Susie took the meat and put the sauce on it, so marinated it first. The bones originally wanted to be thrown away, but Qin Yi didn't let them, when the time came, stew a soup, and drink the soup after eating the barbecue, it should be very beautiful!

It was 7 o'clock quickly, and several people moved all the ingredients to the barbecue grill, and Susie also took out all the desserts she had just made and put them on the table, and then started the barbecue, and in a while the cowboys were coming.

Qin Yi also stood on the side to learn how to grill fish.

It's similar to barbecue, after marinating, brush the sauce and oil first, and brush it again every few minutes during the roasting process, it looks quite easy, Qin Yi plans to go back and try it himself.

This time I got two barbecue grills, Susie grilled fish, Ryan roasted meat, Qin Yi stood aside to help Ryan turn over the meat skewers, which can be regarded as exercising his skills, and in the end, Ryan even asked Qin Yi to grill, and he was pointing on the side, it seems that he wants to pass on his skills to him!

The cowboys arrived soon, Burke and Ricky came first, and then they all came one after another, Qin Yi hurriedly went back to the kitchen to stew the fish bones, and ran out to be busy roasting meat, the cowboys didn't need to entertain, they were all from the ranch, let them drink beer and chat by themselves.

"Hey, guys, there's enough beer and barbecue, of course, don't drink too much at the vigil, there's a chance in the future! I'll let everyone try my handiwork! ”

The cowboys shouted in response, chatted and drank, and the whole lawn suddenly became lively!

Burke saw that Qin Yi was helping, so he didn't interfere, poured a glass of beer, and chatted casually with Ye Fang who was standing on the side, and introduced a cowboy to Ye Fang from time to time, and several people drank beer, and the atmosphere was very good.

Ricky served a dessert and made a salad while eating.

After being busy for almost ten minutes, the barbecue is ready, and the grilled fish will take a few minutes, Qin Yi asked Ryan to taste his barbecued meat, and if there was no problem, he called the cowboys to eat.
