Chapter 6: Pizza
Chen Er introduced the many insect species that can be eaten in Mexico in one go, leaving fans off the screen stunned.
"So Chen Laoshi is planning to eat all the insects he just mentioned once?"
"Before Chen Laoshi starts eating bugs, I just want to ask one question...... Did Chen Laoshi buy medical insurance? ”
"How do you eat bugs? Do you choose fried or steamed? ”
"I choose to keep my dog ......"
Chen Er smiled and said, "Don't be too resistant to eating insects, anyway, we are the ones who eat them, and you are just watching." ”
Fans: "Even if it's just to watch, we refuse!" ”
There are many types of insects that can be eaten in Mexico, and there are many ways to eat them. It is impossible for Chen Er to taste all of them, not only because of his lack of energy, but also because he is a little too late in time.
For example, the "Humir" mosquito can only be caught in large quantities in November every year, but it is not yet time.
As for the acquisition of ant eggs such as "Escamor", there is also a time requirement, and April is a good time to catch them every year. At this time of year, it is naturally not very convenient to obtain ant eggs.
So, thinking about it, now the only thing that can be eaten is the "Chaplin" locust.
This locust is not very particular about cooking methods, and the catch is relatively casual, and there is no special time requirement.
Moreover, the key is that there are many markets that sell them, and Chen Er does not need to bother to find them again.
So, Chen Er drove straight to the market.
Shen Yinian was very surprised when he learned that Chen Er would not go to catch the "Chaplin" locusts by himself.
"But didn't you just say that you were worried that it would be too late? I thought we needed to catch the "Chaplin" locusts ...... ourselves"
Although Shen Yinian was very happy, he didn't have to catch the "Chaplin" locusts by himself.
Chen Er turned the steering wheel in his hand leisurely, as if he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what he said.
"Although we went to the market to buy ready-made "Chaplin" locusts, if we went too late, I am afraid that we would not even be able to buy locust droppings......"
Shen Yinian was stunned, "Okay, this reason barely makes sense......"
She thought it was Chen Er's sudden whim and was unwilling to catch the "Chaplin" locusts.
Chen Er quickly drove to the market, because the local Mexicans believed that the smaller and more tender the "Chaplin" locusts, the better, so most of the "Chaplin" locusts sold in the market were small, the largest was no more than two centimeters.
Chen Er even looked at a few stalls, but he didn't see the slightly larger "Chaplin" locusts. This made Chen Er quite distressed.
Shen Yinian felt a little strange, "Didn't you say that the smaller the size, the better, then we'll buy the small one." ”
Chen Er said with disgust, "A worm of about one centimeter, how many of them do you have to eat enough to eat a bite?" ”
After speaking, without waiting for Shen Yinian to answer himself, Chen Er pinched his chin again and said, "Originally, I was going to fry it and sprinkle it with chili noodles to eat, but now I can only use other cooking methods to make it." ”
Otherwise, according to Chen Er's own appetite, he would have to buy at least half a basket of "Chaplin" locusts to feed him.
After buying the bugs, Chen Er started the car again and returned to the hotel where he lived.
Chen Er put all the "Chaplin" locusts in the bucket, then patted the ashes on his hands and talked to everyone.
"There are many ways to eat this "Chaplin" locust in Mexico, such as roasting, deep-frying, and eating it into cakes......
"One of the most popular ways to eat it is to make pizza."
Pizza is a delicacy that originated in Italy and is popular all over the world.
Pizza is a round and delicious dough in foreign countries, but in the eyes of most people in China, it is a kind of dead dough bun that can be drawn.
There are many types of pizza, but this is the first time Chen Er has heard of pizza made of worms.
Not only has Chen Er not heard of it, but fans outside the screen have also not heard of it.
"Making Pizza with Locusts, 666......"
"Hold the grass, after watching this episode, I'm going to cut off the pizza from now on!!"
"Where did Chen Laoshi learn the manipulation?"
"This operation is not an ordinary sass, it's going to be upside down, okay......"
"I was wondering what this pizza would taste like...... Will it go down in one bite, and the mouth will be full of locust corpses......"
"I'll wipe it, shut upstairs! I've already figured out that picture...... ...... vomit"
"I think it's supposed to bite off a bug......"
Chen Er raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to play so much, I haven't started doing it yet, and you are starting to perform?" ”
Fans: "Come on, come on, please start your performance!" ”
In fact, this locust pizza is nothing special in Chen Er's opinion.
The preparation method is not much different from ordinary pizza, the only difference is probably the addition of a special "meat" - "Chaplin" locusts to the ingredients.
To make pizza, you first have to knead the pizza dough. Because the dough needed to be fermented, and Chen Er was already hungry, he decided to skip this step directly.
"This is a pizza dough bought from the innkeeper. It's already fermented, so just do it. ”
In Chen's opinion, the whole production process is not too complicated, and the only thing that is a little troublesome is the cleaning of the "Chaplin" locusts.
These locusts are so small that they are cumbersome to clean.
So Chen Er came up with a way to wrap all the locusts in a large piece of mesh, then wrap them into a circle, and tie the gaps with thin strings.
Grab one end of the mesh ball, put the locust filled mesh ball into the pool, and rinse it with the faucet.
Rinse it several times until it feels almost clean, then untie the mesh ball and pour out all the locusts.
Then, it's time to start preparing the other ingredients for the pizza.
Although it is a "Chaplin" locust pizza, it cannot be a "Chaplin" locust in addition to flour in the pizza. There have to be some other ancillary ingredients.
"The indispensable thing to make pizza is, of course, cheese."
The cheese in the pizza is usually made with mossarella, but there are also forms that are mixed with several cheeses, including Parmesan cheese, Roma cheese, Italian cottage cheese or Monterey Jack cheese.
Chen Er personally likes Mossarella cheese, so this time he plans to use Mossarella cheese to make the "Chaplin" locust pizza.
In addition to cheese, you will need some other ingredients.
Commonly used are, such as sweet corn, carrots, mushrooms, green peppers, red peppers, etc., and some fruits.
Of course, it can also be adjusted according to personal taste,
