On the edge of the silver sand beach, Jiang Yichen and three of his subordinates harvested freshly ripe coconuts. Chapters are updated the fastest

The first coconut tree was harvested, and everyone moved on to another tree.

Lai Shun'er Mao recommended himself and asked him to change this time to feel the tall and smooth trunk.

Shi Suo'er naturally agreed, and stepped forward to help him put on the foot buckle and safety belt.

Lai Shun'er was also quite agile, and quickly adapted to this "high-tech" climbing tool, hunched up, and it took about five minutes to reach the top of the tree.

"Yes, yes, it's almost catching up with the chimpanzees, well, if the ears were bigger, and there would be a white spot on the back, it would be more like that." Kiko crossed her arms and looked up, and made another evaluation, returning the teasing she had just suffered.

"Kiko, watch your head!" Lai Shun'er screamed in surprise and made a throwing gesture with her right hand.

Xizi was startled and hurriedly stepped back, almost sitting on the ground.

"Hehe, coward." Seeing that he had been fooled, Lai Shun'er pursed his lips, then pulled out the machete pinned to his belt and began to work.

Everyone burst into laughter.

"Alright, alright, stop it, it's dangerous to do this job, don't joke." Jiang Yichen immediately spoke out to stop it and reminded everyone to keep a safe distance.

After a while, the coconuts fell one by one, splashing up patches of dust.

Jiang Yichen roughly calculated in his heart, the size and quantity of coconuts produced by this tree were about the same as the one just now, and it seemed that the growth of the same batch was quite even.

In this way, the islanders harvested the coconuts of five trees in a row. It came to an end for the time being, and then began to move baskets to the bamboo building warehouse.

The storeroom on the first floor of the bamboo building is not very wide, and there are some other items on its own. These more than 300 large round balls were stuffed inside, and they were basically full.

But it didn't matter, the north side was uphill, where the earlier cave station was. Since the bamboo building was built, it has been used as a warehouse, and the area inside is not small, which is more than enough to store the rest of the coconuts.

After lunch, everyone can't wait to taste what this new coconut tastes like.

A wooden cutting board has already been prepared on the dining table. Lai Shun'er picked a big coconut. Rest on it.

He carried a kitchen knife in his right hand and pulled the coconut back and forth in his left hand to observe, frowning and wondering where to start.

Seeing that he didn't know the essentials, Shi Suo'er was waiting to help. But he was secretly dragged by Xizi on the back belt. At the same time, he winked at him. A wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Shi Suo'er immediately understood, this obviously wanted to see the little leader make a mess and have fun. Case. Then let's wait and see what happens.

Lai Shun'er recalls seeing people eating coconuts on TV before, as if they were all drinking with a straw. But the shell is thick and hard, and it doesn't seem easy to get an eye on.

Well, it should be easier to cut the skin first, and then use a sharp knife to drill a hole.

With his mind decided, he grabbed the coconut with one hand and raised the kitchen knife with the other, and began to tentatively chop the crust at one end of the coconut.

Click, the green outer skin is peeled off piece by piece, revealing the white coarse fibrous tissue inside.

Poof, Lai Shun'er pushed a little harder, and saw a stream of juice squirting out of the broken opening, splashing everywhere, and a considerable part of it fell on the operator's face.

Hahahaha, Xizi and Shi Suo'er suddenly leaned forward and back, and they couldn't support it.

Seeing this, Lao Dou hurriedly handed over a wet towel, and Lai Shun'er wiped a few handfuls on his face, and then glared at Xizi and the others fiercely.

"What are you staring at? You don't know how to do it yourself, and you don't command it. Kiko said with a grin.

Lao Dou ignored the young people's bickering, he hurriedly stepped forward to straighten the broken coconut on the cutting board, then took two large bowls and poured coconut water into the bowls along the gap.

The juice is clear and clear, and there is a lot of it, almost filling two large bowls.

"Shi Suo'er, you kid come here." Lai Shun'er ordered.

Only then did he remember that there was a foodie standing next to him, and he must have understood how to clean up such a big round ball.

"Okay, okay, I'll come." Shi Suo'er agreed, and grabbed another coconut from the basket.

He rested on the cutting board and looked at it for a few moments, then used a kitchen knife to peel off the outer skin.

"This cleaning of coconuts is also particular, and it can't be messed up. Oh, do you see, peel off the skin on the top, and three eyes will come out here, and you can just insert a straw and drink it. ā€

Shi Suo'er explained the correct method while operating.

When the audience heard this, they all leaned their heads over, and sure enough, the upper end of the coconut showed traces of three natural holes, arranged in a triangle, which was really a magical scene.

Jiang Yichen also watched curiously from the side. Everything in the world, learning is really everywhere, he secretly sighed in his heart.

Shi Suo'er replaced a sharp fruit knife, picked out two holes, and then found a straw and easily inserted one of them. At this point, the coconut with a straw in front of everyone is the same as often seen in TV travel and food programs.

"It's not bad, it's really good, let me taste what it's like." Kiko reached out and grabbed the coconut, wanting to taste it first.

But then he immediately remembered something, turned around again, and handed the coconut he was holding in his hand to Jiang Yichen.

"Hehe, I almost forgot. Brother Chenzi, you come first. Kiko said with a smile.

"This time, I still know how to talk about the rules, it's not easy." Lai Shun'er pursed her lips and made an evaluation.

Jiang Yichen saw that everyone was looking at him, so he had no choice but to take it.

He put the straw in his mouth and sucked it slightly, only to feel a stream of sweet juice pouring in, instantly spreading on the surface of his tongue, like an autumn breeze blowing through all his taste buds, which lifted his spirits.

Natural coconut water is the original taste, the sweetness is not high, light, not as rich as honey water, but it can also penetrate the heart and spleen, and at the same time, it is accompanied by a few wisps of moist fragrance into the nasal cavity, which is very useful.

Well, the taste and texture are pretty good, but something seems to be missing? That's right, the environment, the atmosphere.

Coconut is a tropical fruit that is a perfect match for a sunny beach, and if you lie on a beach chair at this time, with a green coconut on your chest and a green coconut on your chest, it must be a lazy, pleasant, and comfortable enjoyment.

In addition, like other island products, coconut water also has a unique pure and transparent feeling, which is the common feature of all crops that have been nourished by space ice water.

"Yes, it's refreshing." Jiang Yichen let go of the straw and nodded approvingly.

Seeing him say this, the others couldn't bear it anymore. Lao Dou found two more porcelain bowls, evened out the two bowls on the table that had just broken coconut milk, and distributed them to everyone.

"Well, it's delicious."

"It's refreshing, refreshing."

"It might be better to ice it."

The quality of coconut water was quickly recognized, and the island once again had a delicious all-natural drink, which was a happy event to celebrate.

"It's much better than what I've eaten before, and everything on our island is really good. It's just that this sweetness is not as good as wild honey water, it's a little light, and a little sugar is appropriate. Shi Suo'er put down the porcelain bowl and commented. His taste is heavier, and the coconut water feels a little light.

"Your kid usually likes to eat fried things, it's easy to get angry, it's the most suitable to drink some of this, to clear away heat and detoxify, defeat the fire, and save the old bag on your face and neck." Lai Shun'er proposed to build yƬ.

"Yes, the pimple has grown a lot in the future, and it can't get rid of it, looking like a toad, the girl must be disgusted, how uncomfortable it is to be a single person for a lifetime." Kiko kindly added.

Everyone was happy, Shi Suo'er looked embarrassed, to be honest, he was also yearning for the question of his girlfriend, but he always felt that as a migrant boy from the countryside, the girl in the city could not afford to climb. But after staying outside for a long time and seeing the world, the girl in his hometown village looks very rustic, and she doesn't feel it at all.

Fortunately, as an amateur gourmet, as long as there is something delicious, it is enough for him to put aside this troublesome matter and stop thinking about it, which will only increase his troubles.

"Well, you know, the best thing in coconut is not this water." Shi Suo'er was reluctant to go deeper into this topic, so he hurriedly diverted his words.

"Oh, what's that? Isn't coconut just for drinking? Lai Shun'er asked curiously.

"Then you'd be wrong, the real good stuff is still in there. A lot of people who don't understand throw away the shell after drinking the juice, that's called a fool. ā€

Shi Suo'er's face showed a hint of mystery, and at the same time he reached out and patted the empty coconut shell with a broken sound.

"Say it quickly, sell less." Kiko got impatient and urged.

Shi Suo'er stopped talking, took the kitchen knife, pressed the coconut shell with one hand, flipped the kitchen knife with the other, rushed down the back of the knife, and knocked it on the coconut shell.

After a few consecutive blows, the coconut shell was smashed in half, revealing something as white as frost and snow inside.

"That's it, coconut meat, that's the essence." He then revealed the answer.

"Yes, I'll taste it."

After hearing this, Xizi hurriedly picked up the fruit knife from the table, shaved a piece of white raw coconut meat from the inner wall of the coconut shell, put it in her mouth and chewed it a few times.

"Well, it's quite crispy and tender, it's okay, but it doesn't taste good."

"Coconut meat is not eaten like this, it has to be picked off with a spoon, put it in a blender to beat into a pulp, and then filtered, what comes out is real coconut milk, add a little sugar or honey mixed with it, that is called a beauty, ten times stronger than coconut water. Also, the filtered residue is also a treasure, called desiccated coconut, which can be used to make desiccated coconut cakes, desiccated coconut cakes or something. Shi Suo'er said in detail.

This statement made everyone very interested, so they asked Shi Suo'er and Lao Dou to go to the kitchen to do the same, so as to promote the health of the island's great cause of cuisine.

Even Jiang Yichen was curious, so he could let Lao Dou have time to try it.

Since it was expected by everyone, Lao Dou did not dare to slack off, so he started a special research on coconut meat-related foods with Shi Suo'er that day. (To be continued......)
