Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Jiang Yichen returned to his room, closed the door, sat on a chair and opened his laptop, and looked up information about mustard on the Internet.

Wasabi, also known as mustard and mustard powder, is most commonly a powdered seasoning made from the mature seeds of mustard greens.

Mustard is slightly bitter, spicy and fragrant, has a strong stimulation to the mouth and tongue, the taste is very unique, and the mustard powder has an aroma spray after wetting, with a strong irritating spicy taste with tear-jerking, and has a stimulating effect on taste and smell. It is often used as a condiment in making zuò kimchi, marinating raw meat, or tossing salads. It can also be used with light soy sauce as a delicious seasoning for sashimi.

The main spicy component of mustard is mustard oil, which has a strong spicy taste, which can stimulate the secretion of saliva and gastric juice, have appetizing effects, and enhance people's appetite. At the same time, it has a strong detoxification function and can detoxify the poison of fish and crabs.

Wasabi is native to China and has been used in the court since the Zhou Dynasty. Later, it was introduced to the Wa country, and because of its eating habits, it was greatly developed in Wa cuisine.

There are many varieties of mustard, which are mainly divided into two categories: yellow mustard and green mustard, which are easy to distinguish from each other in color, and their raw materials are two completely different plants. The former uses mustard mature seeds for grinding, while the latter, also known as wasabi, is made of wasabi or horseradish grinding, which is green, its spicy smell is stronger than yellow mustard, and has a unique aroma, which is more suitable for raw salmon and other fresh foods than the former.

I didn't know much about this before, and I thought that wasabi for sashimi was the same thing as wasabi for kimchi and cold vegetables. Now everything is authentic, there is no doubt about it. You should choose a high-quality green mustard variety, that is, wasabi, for planting.

Jiang Yichen looked at the computer screen. The idea suddenly came to mind, and a decision was made quickly.

Then I inquired, turned over for a while, and found that there is relatively little information about wasabi varieties and planting on the Internet. On a large shopping website, I found a small shop selling wasabi seeds.

However, most of the things sold by such small shops are not reliable, especially special commodities such as seeds, which need to wait for a long time from sowing, emergence to harvesting. In order to know how the variety is, the right version of the goods.

If you don't end up with what you want, that's what you get annoyed. The seeds themselves are not expensive, but they do not cost time and effort.

After pondering for a while, I simply asked Manager Wu of Baishuo Flower Seedling Company, who provided fruit tree seedlings last time. After all, people are professionals, and they get things through his hands. Naturally, it's much more secure.

Without further ado, he immediately picked up his mobile phone, found Manager Wu's number from the address book, and dialed it. At the same time, he got up and walked to the window.

A few seconds later, the phone was connected. After the two chatted a few words about the growth of fruit trees on the island, Jiang Yichen explained that he wanted to plant wasabi. Ask him to help find seedlings or seeds, as well as the corresponding cultivation techniques.

As an industry insider, Manager Wu is well-informed, thought for a while, and said that he knew something like wasabi. In the past few years, the country has been successfully introduced and bred from the Japanese country, but it is not yet within the scope of the company's business. But you can ask your peers. If there is any definite news, notify the other person.

In addition, the impression of wasabi has strong regional characteristics, growing in cold and damp mountains and valleys. There are strict requirements for natural conditions and environments such as climate, water and soil, and it is not easy to plant in the northern region.

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered that Xiao Jiang asked for the batch of high-planted green coconut trees last year, which were also not suitable for the northern environment, but it was said that not only did the trees survive on the island, but also grew well.

This situation shows that the other party has a very advanced professional planting technology, and in this case, wasabi may not be a problem either.

So he didn't say much about it, but said that he would do his best to find someone.

Jiang Yichen thanked him, and then closed the line.

After contacting Manager Wu, he also felt much more at ease.

I didn't expect to eat tuna today, but I inadvertently brought out such an important seasoning.

The seafood restaurant is facing a picky high-end consumer group, and its dishes are very exquisite from raw materials to processing and plating, but it is not possible to copy the business mode of Malatang restaurant.

Take this green mustard as an example, it is not suitable to use the kind of finished toothpaste-type wasabi sauce that is common in supermarkets in restaurants.

Instead, the rhizomes of wasabi are placed on a special grinder and freshly ground into wasabi puree, which is used to serve with sashimi and sashimi for immediate consumption. It is said that in this way, the rich and fresh aroma of wasabi can be guaranteed to the greatest extent, and it is naturally not on the same level as the finished product.

I have the space ice water, and based on my previous experience in growing various spices, it is estimated that there is a great possibility of producing high-quality wasabi on the island.

This green mustard alone can raise the starting height and be ahead of other peers. It's really exciting to think about.

Now all you have to do is wait for a reply. By the way, I'll go around the island early tomorrow morning and see where to find a suitable plot of land for this new planting project.

The wharf construction project on the island has been started for four days, and because the preliminary survey work is relatively meticulous and perfect, the construction progress is quite smooth, and there have been no major omissions so far.

The two engineering ships have been busy, the initial processes such as digging sediment, leveling the bottom, and driving into prefabricated foundation piles have been completed, and the next step is to prepare for processing, cutting, bundling steel bars, and supporting formwork.

As for the concrete of the main structure, it is planned to use commercial mix, which is more reliable in quality. From the port of Lingjiang, a construction ship was directly rented and transported to pour.

At the construction site, Supervisor Zheng patrols around every day to check various building materials and construction progress.

According to the contract agreement, Party A shall provide Party B's construction personnel with three meals a day. Among them, the staple food is easy to solve, just get three rice cookers and cook rice in the kitchen at the same time.

Dou Fucheng led the guy sent from Dingxiangyuan to support the big pot of vegetables in the courtyard of the bamboo building every day, making the yard full of aroma.

Of the two resident residents of the yard, Big Goose is better, after all, a staunch vegetarian. And the snow peas' table is much worse, every time it is time to stir-fry, although they have been fed in advance, it is still difficult to resist the temptation of the aroma, running to the chef's feet and circling, whining. But they are often ignored and nothing is gained.

Although the taste of the big pot dish is not as good as that of the small stir-fry, the excellent ingredients and seasonings basically cover up this shortcoming. The construction workers ate heartily at every meal, and praised that they had never seen such good construction site food in their lives, even much better than those restaurants in the city.

The food is good, so that the workers are full of energy. Foreman Jiang patted his chest to Party A and assured that even if there was no supervision, he would make the wharf a high-quality project.

In view of the above, Jiang Yichen except for occasionally sneaking to the gravel beach to take a look, in most cases he just left it alone and just waited for the acceptance of the project. (To be continued)
