Chapter 40: Crab Encounter, Encounter

Because the marble baking tray had just been scorched, Li Gengxin knew that this temperature was the perfect time to make delicious food. If he had been chatting with Yang Hongli and Mi Di, it would not have lost with the loss of popularity. What you want to make yourself will fall short.

Therefore, Li Gengxin did not look up. He picked up a jujube teak brush in his hand, dipped some olive oil in a small blue and white bowl, and brushed it on the marble baking sheet.

Li Gengxin watched the olive oil instantly burst into tiny bubbles. Then he picked up the shrimp meat and pasted it on the marble plate.

The high temperature instantly tightens the shrimp meat. The shrimp meat is also gradually becoming pink and tender. At this time, Li Xinxin kept moving.

Use bamboo and wooden tongs to clamp the scallop meat and asparagus that you have just made on the plate.

Look at the shrimp, scallops, and emerald green asparagus that change between the hot marble surfaces. Li Gengxin was silent for a while, then lowered his head with a tong, picked up the crab meat, and gently placed it in the baking dish.

Li Gengxin specially brought a black green crab shell just now.

The crab shell is large, with beautiful spots like rain flowers. Turquoise flooding, it is a steady and domineering, no white gold like lapis lazuli calm color.

Li Gengxin took a look at the baking tray with the crab shell with a clip, and then placed the crab shell precisely on the outer edge of the baking tray. This position is good enough to put down this crab shell, no more, no less.

Because he was making seafood with his head down, Li Gengxin didn't notice that the eyes of the two women beside him were intertwined in the air. The lingering gaze seems to reveal countless wisps of tenderness and sweetness.

Mi Di, a cute big meow foodie beauty on weekdays, today her eyes are abnormally revealing bursts of aggressive light. And Yang Hongli, who usually says nothing but does not do the same, has outstanding skills in business. Today, she is as shy as the girl next door......

Looking at Yang Hongli's expression of retreat, Mi Di's eyes showed bursts of encouragement. The look seemed to say, "You're okay!" Take out your charm. Be brave! Be brave......"

Yang Hongli subconsciously shook his head slightly. The shy eyes looked around in a panic, as if they were forced by Mi Tu not to want to......

Lee updated with his head down. At this time, I didn't know that the peach blossoms were about to fall on my head. At this moment, Li Gengxin lowered his head, and used a small wooden spatula in his hand to gently flip the most difficult green shrimp on the marble baking tray and flipped it a few times.

Li Gengxin subconsciously reached out and pinched the knife beside him, pulled it over and pressed the shrimp meat with a wooden spatula, and the knife light gently swiped between it!

Then he poked lightly between the marble baking pans with the tip of the knife, and the crisis of the scallop meat that was about to be charred was lightly resolved.

Li Gengxin gently flipped the crab meat twice with a wooden shovel, and said softly as if he remembered something: "With the recent autumn wind, in fact, now is a good time to eat crabs. Our Chinese nation has a history of eating crabs for thousands of years. And Mr. Lu Xun, the first person to eat crabs, commented that he was a warrior. ”

"Ahem...... Mi Di coughed dryly twice, and then winked at Yang Hongli with encouraging eyes and said, "Update, always say that the first person to eat crabs." The first person to eat crabs. That...... So who was the first to eat crabs? ”

Yang Hongli stiffened his head and raised his eyes to look at Mi Di.

Be the first to eat crabs? The meaning of Mi Di's words is actually to make herself the first person to eat "crabs". Yang Hongli is not stupid, how can he not understand that Mi Turang let himself take the initiative?

Yang Hongli bit his back molars, turned his head and glanced at Mi Tu. Then he nodded at Li Gengxin and asked, "Yes?" Always say that the first person to eat crabs, who do you say is the first person to eat crabs? ”

Li Gengxin pinched the wooden shovel in his hand, flipped the crab meat, and said with a smile: "I really know who it is!" ”

"Who?"

The two girls just wanted to use this to convey some messages to each other, and Yang Hongli and Mi Di didn't really want to know who the first person to eat crabs was. What's more, in the two of them, they don't know who the first person to eat crabs is. How would Li Gengxin know?

However, Li Gengxin nodded instantly, and he actually knew who was the first person to eat crabs!

Yang Hongli frowned. I don't really want to know who this person is. Mi Di also frowned, and sighed secretly, "You idiot! Isn't it good to let Yang Hongli eat you when the crab is a while? What's the trouble? ”

Li Gengxin originally wanted to follow the words and tell the allusions he knew in his heart. But when he was chirping, he suddenly found that neither of them had picked up the stubble, and his face couldn't help but darken.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little eerie. If it weren't for the squeaky and squeaky pecking sound on the scorching marble countertop in Li Gengxin's hand, there would have been basically no movement in the room.

Li Gengxin suddenly raised his head. Suddenly, I found that Yang Hongli and Mi Di were looking at each other with complicated light. Li Gengxin was stunned, and subconsciously muttered and asked, "Are you really not curious?" ”

Yang Hongli and Mi Di saw Li Gengxin staring at the two of them. The two daughters' cheeks turned red at the same time, and they said in unison: "I want to know ......"

After saying that. Yang Hongli and Mi Di subconsciously glanced at each other. A rouge-like red glow instantly covered the cheeks of the two!

Li Gengxin coughed lightly and muttered, "Yes? This first person to eat crabs is a long story. ”

"Long story? Let's make a long story short......" Mi Di watched from the side, Li Gengxin turned the shrimp meat with a wooden shovel. muttered helplessly.

"Long story short...... Good. In short. Legend has it that thousands of years ago, there was a kind of beetle with two chelae and eight legs and a vicious shape in the rivers and lakes. This monster not only steals rice, but also wounds people with chelates. Those who have seen this beetle call it the 'manworm'.

Afterward. Dayu went to Jiangnan to control the water and sent a strong man to supervise the PLO.

Here's the point, the PLO is the point! ”

As soon as Li Gengxin's voice fell, he saw Yang Hongli and Mi Di having a disapproving look on their faces at the same time. Then Li Gengxin hurriedly continued: "The infestation of this insect is strictly hindering the project. Later, the PLO came up with a solution. That is to dig a ditch at the edge of the city. At the same time, boiling water was poured into the ditch, and the insects fell into the ditch and scalded to death.

No one expected that the dark blue and black-brown beetle would be red after being scalded to death. In addition, the dead beetle emits an extremely attractive and delicious fragrance around it. The PLO then curiously broke the carapace. I lowered my head and sniffed ......"

Li Gengxin said as he leaned over and took a heavy breath on his marble baking tray. With a look of enjoyment, he continued: "Who would have thought that the fragrance of the insect would be stronger." After that, the PLO took a bite with the guts! Who knew that the umami taste was even better than anything else! As a result, the feared pest suddenly became a well-known delicacy. In order to thank the PLO who dared to go down for the world, everyone added a worm word under the word solution. Call the insect 'crab'. It means that the PLO conquered the worm and is the first crab eater in the world! ”

After Li Gengxin finished speaking, he immediately raised his hand and took the blue and white plate next to him in his hand. Use a wooden spatula to turn the red crab shells upside down in the middle of the plate.

The shrimp meat was sandwiched by Li Gengxin and first placed in the nest, followed by crab meat and scallop meat. Finally, two emerald green, slightly charred asparagus garnishes were placed next to the plate as a garnish.

Li Gengxin handed the plate in his hand to the rice and said with a smile: "Oh, there are two kinds of sauces below." You taste it......"

"If you're in a bad mood, eat and eat! If you are in a good mood, you have to eat! Hehe......" Mi Tu pursed her lips, took the plate handed to her by Li Gengxin, picked up the ebony chopsticks next to her, picked up a piece of crab meat, pecked the ginger vinegar sauce prepared by Li Gengxin and took a bite. His face changed suddenly, and he muttered casually, "Okay...... It's so fresh! ”

Li Gengxin smiled and said, "Well, didn't you pay attention? There is not a single grain of salt in the whole process. What you eat is the most original umami of a seafood ingredient. This taste...... You'll love it! ”

"Delicious! It's good-looking......" Yang Hongli pursed his mouth. As if he was holding back the fragrance in the corner of his mouth, he muttered softly. Then I saw Li Gengxin turn his head to look at him. Yang Hongli's face turned slightly red and said to Li Gengxin: "Update...... I...... I...... I'm not happy either! ”

"You're not happy and it's late, I'll prepare an ingredient ......" Li Gengxin showed a look of no rut in his eyes, and replied helplessly with Yang Hongli squeezing his shoulder.

Yang Hongli snorted heavily, and looked at the rice that was holding the plate and eating the crab. The look in his eyes gives people the feeling of looking through the autumn water.

Mi Di didn't fail to see the light emanating from Yang Hongli's big eyes, as if to say, "Let me taste it...... Let me taste it! ”

Actually, Mi Di also wanted to hand the plate to Yang Hongli. But the idea is the idea, but the hand can't be stretched out as if he doesn't listen to the call!

Yang Hongli snorted heavily, turned his head and looked at Li Gengxin's face as much as possible, deliberately diverting his attention, and muttered to Li Gengxin: "It's so lively." So why do I always hear people tell me that eating Japanese crabs seems to be powerful? ”

Li Gengxin didn't expect Yang Hongli to use the word force. He frowned helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Japanese people like to eat crabs, and they are indeed very famous?" After all, when autumn begins, Japanese food is bound to include matsutake mushrooms, persimmons, and saury. At the same time, Japan and China are separated by water, and they are also indispensable to the delicacy of crab! ”

Mi Di suddenly coughed twice. With tears in his eyes, he said with a blank face: "This ...... Is this sashimi juice? ”

Li Gengxin looked back at the sauce that Mi Tu was pointing to. He smiled slightly and muttered, "Hmm! There was a lot of green mustard in it......"

Mi Tu places the plate on the table. Raise your hand and flicker the air while your nose takes a deep breath.

The tearful Mi Di suddenly froze, and hurriedly reached out and pulled the plate into his arms, and then took a deep breath.

Li Gengxin looked helplessly at Yang Hongli beside him. And Yang Hongli snorted heavily with a bitter face and said, "Okay." Go on! ”

When he said this, Yang Hongli was still thinking in his heart: "I also said that I am a good sister." He also said to help me get Li Gengxin, I don't know how many pounds I have when I see crabs, right? Eat, eat, eat...... Fatten you! ”

Come to think of it. Yang Hongli's face changed. I don't know why such a vicious thought came to my mind. At this time, Li Gengxin had already continued: "There are actually many types of crabs eaten in Japan. But basically they are sea crabs, of course, there are river crabs similar to our Chinese hairy crabs, but the focus is still on practical sea crabs.

These crabs include hairy crabs, cod crabs, snow leaf crabs, flower crabs, etc.

This cod crab is actually what is believed to be the largest crab in the world. Cod crabs resemble spiders and live in the deep sea. Just like our Yangcheng Lake in China! In Japan, cod crabs are our Chinese Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs! They always say it's a gift from the North! ”

Sticking out her tongue, Yonja interjected and asked, "Hairy crabs are also a common item on the autumn table in Japan, right?" ”

Li Gengxin nodded and glanced at Mi Tu, and said with a slight smile: "Its characteristic is actually that it is huge and fat. Because it lives in 150 meters of seawater, it can also be said to be an all-natural green seafood. It's just that after the Fukushima incident, will it become even bigger...... I can't say it! ”

Mida shuddered and thought of Godzilla......

Yang Hongli asked beside him: "Then is the hairy crab you said the same as the hairy crab?" ”

"Hmm...... Both are famous for crab paste, which is suitable for making crab paste sushi. The way it is eaten in Japanese cuisine is actually the same as that in China, and steaming is the most commonly used cooking technique in Japan! ”

Yang Hongli said with some curiosity: "I think there seem to be many kinds of zuò crabs made in Japanese food, right?" ”

Li Gengxin thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, they also like to eat crab hot pot, which is what they call crab pot." However, there is no hot pot material used when firing, and the bottom of the hot pot is a pot of oil soup. In this way, you can eat the original taste of the crab better. Put tofu, cabbage, and green onions on them, which complement each other and have a unique taste. At the end, remove the sundries, put in the rice, and you can also make a crab porridge. ”

Yang Hongli nodded, and said thoughtfully: "Well, I've also heard of this method of making zuò, but as far as I know, crabs can also be made into crab sashimi, which is something similar to sashimi, and it seems that it can also be fried and charcoal-grilled, right?" ”

Li Gengxin smiled and pointed to the marble baking tray and said, "The seafood crab pot that Mi Di ate just now, I used the charcoal grilling method!" ”

Yang Hongli listened to Li Gengxin's words, nodded slightly, and was suddenly surprised to find that how did he make Li Gengxin's crab confused?

Turning his head to look at the expression of Mi Tu next to him, he glanced at Mi Tu with a somewhat sharp gaze. The face seems to say, "You're a crab!" Let's talk about my encounter with Li Gengxin! ”

Seeing Yang Hongcarp's white eyes, Mi Di lowered her head and smirked a few times, and suddenly asked Li Gengxin: "What you said suddenly wants to drink!" ”

"Wine?" Yang Hongli suddenly understood something, and a layer of burgundy appeared on his cheeks.

"Wine?" Li Gengxin glanced at the plate in Mi Di's hand, nodded and said, "Yes!" Eating seafood should indeed be accompanied by some wine. Miss, the matter of wine ......" (to be continued......)
