1126.Swordfish out of the water (1/5)
After crawling and playing around for a while, the little melon was tired, 'Gollum' turned over, lay on the drifting island and opened his small mouth to pant, letting go of Qin Shiou and Winnie.
Qin Shiou stuck the fishing rod in a gap and accompanied Winnie to prepare dinner in the kitchen of the cottage.
The high-priced things are definitely worth the money, so a small kitchen, but fully equipped, range hood, Xiaoice box, water purifier, induction cooker and microwave.
It's no wonder that the manufacturer is reluctant to show his product parameters online, and there are many technologies in this capsule hut that involve patent issues, such as these small kitchen utensils, refrigerators and water purifiers are combined into one, which can be patented.
In order to make the capsule cabin play enough in the limited space, the manufacturer racked his brains and made good use of every inch of space, and there are some things in the kitchen of the cabin that are very inconspicuous, but when they are pulled apart, they realize that it also has a unique and wonderful use.
The kitchen was too small to accommodate two people, so Qin Shiou racked the MSR-Whisperlite-Universal field general burning stove he carried, this thing is very portable, only a little larger than the tea tank in his hometown, and can eat gasoline, kerosene and gas tanks, and the firepower is very fierce.
In fact, Qin Shiou felt that there was no need to make such a big fuss about this capsule hut in the kitchen, it was better to prepare this kind of burning irrigation directly, put an oil gas tank in the kitchen, and if it was not safe enough, then use a wood stove.
The wood stove is a stove that has been in the cold region of Newfoundland for a long time, but the outdoor exquisite distillation wood stove has just emerged, and Qin Shiou has a brief understanding of it before and wanted to buy one. But I thought it was more fun to DIY it myself, so I didn't buy it.
The other is. Distillation wood stoves are expensive, and a small bug brand of medium-sized stoves costs about 400 Canadian dollars!
The stove that Qin Shiou uses now is the one he bought before. At that time, it was specially prepared for camping in the mountains, and what I wanted was that it was powerful, portable and lightweight, and could quickly cook a meal.
But now that there is a small melon, it is inconvenient to use such a stove, because it is dangerous, and it burns liquefied gas or gasoline and diesel, in case the little guy accidentally knocks it down, then Qin Shiou will cry.
Cleaning up the stove, Qin Shiou discussed with Winnie: "Go back and give this stove away." I bought a new wood stove. ”
Winnie nodded and said okay, you can make your own decisions about such things, Qin Shiou said, "I'm in charge?" No, no, no, I don't dare. ”
Winnie laughed, hugged him from behind and said, "I am the master of the small things, you are the master of the big things, whether a thing is a big thing or a small matter, it is up to you to decide, okay?" ”
Qin Shiou smiled with satisfaction. While setting up the iron frame and whistling happily, Winnie smiled and picked up her tired daughter, and whispered: "Little baby, you must find a stupid one when looking for a husband in the future." ”
The universal burner can adjust the fire. Qin Shiou is going to cook, and in this kind of place, he uses semi-finished products or simple dishes to cook, so he can't make a fish-flavored shredded pork, right? That's too much work.
When the ship is sailing ahead. Qin Shiou casually laid a net, and now fished the net up. There are some fatty and tender arctic shrimp in it, and spring is a good season to eat them. They lay their eggs in the spring, when they are at their fattest.
In Chinese cuisine, there is a cooking technique of boiling water, which is to blanch the food with boiling water or soup, and it is most suitable to eat arctic shrimp to make boiled shrimp.
When Qin Shiou was in his hometown, he had a conceptual confusion about "white boiling", thinking that white burning was just boiling it in white water and eating it. Actually, it's not, that's a literal misunderstanding, there are still several processes for real boiled shrimp.
Of course, these processes are simple.
Clean up the arctic shrimp, cut the green onions, ginger and garlic to prepare for cooking wine, Qin Shiou lights the fire, pours a little oil into the small pot, and when the oil is ready to boil, immediately put in the chopped green onions, ginger and garlic, pour in cooking wine, stir-fry and add water, so that the arctic shrimp can be boiled again.
The Arctic shrimp itself is fragrant and sweet, and the Eskimos like to eat this shrimp raw, even if they don't eat it raw, don't cook it for too long, otherwise the meat will be old and the umami and sweetness will be gone.
Let the arctic shrimp roll in the pot, Qin Shiou fished it out, there were crushed ice cubes in the refrigerator, took it out and put the arctic shrimp in it, so that the shrimp meat that was loose due to heating condensed again and became crispy again.
Winnie prepared soy sauce and mustard, picked a shrimp peel, dipped it in the condiments and put it in Qin Shiou's mouth, and asked, "Is it delicious?" ”
Qin Shiou nodded, and was just about to say a few words sweetly, but the tiger and leopard lying next to the fishing rod screamed.
The fishing line was pulled very tightly, Qin Shiou went up to test the strength, and then made a difficult gesture, Winnie asked nervously, "Is it a big fish?" ”
Drifting Island is, after all, a plastic island, and if you catch a shark on it, you may be dragged away.
Qin Shiou gritted his teeth and nodded, and Winnie suddenly laughed: "Stop acting, I've never seen you have such a hard time, unless you catch a whale." ”
The conspiracy was revealed, Qin Shiou also smiled, he quickly turned the wheel seat, the fishing line was retracted, and finally the two slender silver bright fish were caught.
These two fish are only more than 20 centimeters long, with a long and side-flat body, and the arc gradually tapers from head to tail, like a saber. Its body is mainly composed of three colors: blue, yellow, and white, these three colors are very gorgeous, blue is deep, yellow is brilliant, and white is shiny.
Naturally, this is the Florida swordfish, which can be among the top five traders in terms of fishery value.
The ability of Florida swordfish to reproduce is really worrying, they are a kind of fish that grows in the river and the sea, and like salmon, they need to breed in inland rivers, and they cannot reproduce in the sea. But even when they enter the river, they are not very reproductive.
This fish breeds in the spring, and Qin Shiou plans to control them all the way north into the Kanbal Mountain River, anyway, there are not many swordfish in the fishing grounds, and this kind of mountain stream and small river can accommodate them.
One of the two fish has a bulging belly, the other is shriveled, and the bulging belly is the female who is about to spawn and the other is the male.
Qin Shiou picked the female fish and threw it back into the sea, and the male fish was going to cook and eat tonight.
The first time Winnie saw this fish, she didn't know it, and asked strangely, "What kind of fish is this?" ”
Qin Shiou didn't explain, smiled and said that this was a delicious fish, and then went to deal with it.
The swordfish is delicious, but it is not easy to pick up, and there is a black mucous membrane in its belly, which is poisonous and must be cleaned up. The white scales on the fish should not be touched during the cleaning process, and these small scales have high nutritional value. (To be continued......)
