Chapter 139: The Best Delicacies
Yi Xiaoge slipped to the fishing ground on Wudao Island, and the old fisherman was no longer alone at the moment, and there were four or five young and strong young men to help him deal with the things in the fishing ground. www.biquge.info In the past, they were dealing with shark fins, but now they no longer breed small fish in the fishing grounds, and they are trying to breed large seafood that can be reprocessed, as well as individual cherished seafood.
"Uncle, are you busy?" Yi Xiaoge stepped forward and saw that the fisherman's grandfather was handling the shark meat neatly.
"Ahh It's Mr. Yi, you haven't been to the fishing ground for a long time, I'm processing shark meat, is there anything important for you to come? ”
"That's right, what is the biggest seafood we can eat in the sea here?"
"The biggest?" The old man thought for a while and said: "The largest seafood whale meat that can be eaten in the sea is ranked first, the whale meat is fresh and tender, the fishy smell is very light, and there are many ways to cook and eat, it can be regarded as a superb meat." ”
"Whales."
Yi Xiaoge is no stranger to hearing this word, doesn't the island country organize fishing boats to go to the Arctic Ocean to hunt whales every year, he has never eaten whale meat.
"Do we have whales here?"
"We don't seem to have them here, and whales have very demanding living habits, and they are generally difficult to see."
Yi Xiaoge shook his head, it was impossible to count on whales, and he had to find another way.
"Look there's a lot of eggs in this sturgeon!"
Yi Xiaoge was about to go back to the villa, when suddenly a young fisherman said with a sturgeon with a broken belly, Yi Xiaoge looked back, and sure enough, he saw that there were many fish eggs in the belly of the fish.
"Aren't sturgeon spawning in early spring and early summer? Why is it that eggs are laid in winter! ”
Yi Xiaoge hurriedly walked over in three or two steps to take the sturgeon in the young fisherman's hand, showing a transparent pale yellow egg densely filled in the sturgeon's stomach, this is indeed a sturgeon in the spawning period.
There are many varieties of sturgeon, both in inland freshwater and near the coast, and the reason why Yi Xiaoge is interested in sturgeon spawning is because the eggs of sturgeon can make a delicacy that is unique in the world and extremely expensive: caviar!
Theoretically, caviar can be used with any fish egg, but the caviar made from sturgeon fish roe is internationally recognized as the most high-end variety, and caviar is rarely used in China, but it is a seasoning food that almost everyone loves very much abroad. Among them, the most famous and precious is the black caviar from Russia and Iran, which is spread on bread with whipped cream and eaten in a bite. The reason why black caviar is precious in reality is that in addition to its own delicious taste, the number of sturgeon is extremely rare, and the production process of caviar is also very complicated.
Yi Xiaoge looked at the sturgeon in front of him that had been hung up and said, "Is such a sturgeon still alive?" ”
"Yes! It's in the tank! The young fisherman said, "These are the ones that were just caught this morning, and there are about five or six of them!" ”
"It's good to breed this sturgeon in large quantities at once, and take out half of each batch and send it to the bakery!"
Sturgeon naturally has fish eggs in its stomach as soon as it breeds, and he plans to make caviar himself, as long as it can be successful, it will be a blessing for players around the world. Hundreds of sturgeon about to spawn were soon sent to the bakery, but in fact, the sturgeon that is actually used to make black caviar is extremely rare, and only three kinds of sturgeon eggs can be used, and the age of the fish and the quality of the eggs are quite high. Yi Xiaoge couldn't do that for the time being, he downloaded a Western caviar method from the Internet and started to do it.
The first is egg retrieval, Yi Xiaoge asked several fishermen to help in the bakery, and soon took out a large number of fish eggs, after removing impurities, Yi Xiaoge used a gold per portion of refined salt in the trading center to marinate slightly, and finally used a mesh sieve to grade and filter caviar, and the graded fish eggs were dried on the mesh sieve and then packed by Yi Xiaoge into a can-like iron box made by Yi Xiaoge and asked the blacksmith uncle to seal it. Yi Xiaoge also asked people to transport a large amount of ice and snow from Tianya Island and the Cape of the Sea for preservation.
The first batch of caviar Yi Xiaoge was distributed to all the islanders on the three islands, and with the fluffy bread and cream made by the baker, plus the wine in the tavern, the taste was not too refreshing, and the freshness was tender with the bursting feeling of caviar and a hint of nuts. This is the most authentic caviar method, and the taste that Yi Xiaoge made for the first time can achieve such an effect.
Later, after Yi Xiaoge studied and produced more carefully and repeatedly, he finally came up with the final sales product, Yi Xiaoge hung ten cans on the Internet at a price of 100 gold per can, and was found out and bought after only ten seconds. It didn't take long for Yi Xiaoge to receive a message from a player from France, saying that he was willing to buy this caviar at a high price. France is the most strict country on caviar, and it can be recognized by French players, which means that this caviar is really reliable.
As soon as the news leaked, Yi Xiaoge soon received countless friend requests, basically players from Western countries, who said that they really couldn't refuse caviar. In this cold winter, eating caviar, which is a delicacy of the world, is simply a luxury that you dare not ask for.
Then Yi Xiaoge directly hung out a thousand cans at the price of 300 gold cans, Yi Xiaoge thought that the caviar was exclusive to his family, and no one should doubt the amount of caviar. A thousand cans were bought in a minute, he underestimated the power of the world's foodies, in such a short half a day, he had already harvested more than 300,000 gold coins, this money is not too easy, but there are also many people who ask about the origin of the sturgeon, and they already hope to be able to buy the sturgeon. These were all rejected by Yi Xiaoge one by one, and explanations would not work at this time.
Yi Xiaoge didn't dare to be too rampant, he planned to sell this caviar for three consecutive days, and then sell it every once in a while, so as to give people the illusion that he was only temporarily in sufficient supply.
Caviar is just a windfall, after all, although caviar is delicious, it can't solve the serious shortage of food, without food islanders will starve to death or even riot, if professional islanders are starved to death, there is simply no place to cry, so he needs to find food that can fill this gap as soon as possible.
Yi Xiaoge has no choice, so he will temporarily go offline and browse on the Internet, maybe there can be some way on the Internet. Anyway, Yi Xiaoge hasn't been out for a long time, so he took this opportunity to go out for a walk.
In the morning, Yi Xiaoge walked out of the community to have breakfast after washing, and when he sat down at a roadside stall, the conversation between the two people sitting at the table next to him aroused his idea.
