Chapter 338: Fish Pot Baba
Facing the orange morning sun, the sea surface blown by the wind is sparkling with golden waves, and there are flocks of seagulls flying overhead.
"Auntie, you have so many seabirds here." Wan Huan pointed to the top of his head and said.
Wang Suxue smiled: "What is this? Not far from here, Sea Cat Island is full of resting seabirds! ”
"Sea Cat Island? Are there still cats on the island in the sea? Wan Huan asked curiously.
The women on the boat all laughed, and Wang Suxue also explained with a smile: "Our people here call seabirds and seagulls sea cats, so there are no cats on the island, only birds, and some people call them sea donkey islands!" ”
It dawned on me that Sea Donkey Island had been heard of in my life, and it was called a place only one step away from heaven.
Of course, it is not a paradise for people, and a few decades later, Sea Donkey Island is an uninhabited island.
Its superior natural conditions attract a variety of seabirds to nest and breed, and it is a paradise for all kinds of seabirds and seagulls.
"That island must be interesting!" Said with a long view.
Wang Suxue said to Duan Huan regretfully, "There are troops stationed on the island, except for the navy's supply ships, our fishermen's boats are not allowed to dock and land on the island, otherwise we can take you to see it." ”
Only then did I remember that this was not an era when you could travel casually after opening up, but a special period of closure and tension.
After all, Yeongseong Bay is the closest place to Japan and South Korea, and it is bordered by the Korean Peninsula to the east, so the importance of its geographical location as a military frontier is self-evident.
"It's okay, didn't my aunt say that there are only seagulls and troops on the island? I guess it's not much to see! "I don't think there's anything to regret.
Soon the women on board began to get busy, casting nets and pulling nets to put the fish into the cabin, repeating this action mechanically over and over again.
After watching it for a while, he felt a little bored, so he sat on the stern of the boat and fished with the fishing rod he brought from the Dong family.
Now the fishery resources are still relatively abundant, almost every net has fish and shrimp, just this net down to catch a lot of big yellow croaker and prawns.
The captain of the women's team was also on this boat, looking at the fish and shrimp jumping in the cabin, "Today's harvest is good, according to this speed of fishing, we can return after lunch!" ”
The women fishermen on the boat, all with smiles on their tanned faces, echoed one after another, "Captain, it seems that our boat is going to be the first today!" ”
Although the fishing village is also a division of labor system, the benefits related to fishing in the fishing village are very good, and there are related fishing gear production workshops, and the income of the villagers is generally very good.
Women like these women in fishing teams have more than 200 yuan from the end of the year to the end of the year, and there will be even more fishermen in young and middle-aged fishermen or fishermen on ocean-going aircraft ships.
With an annual income of 200 yuan, in rural areas where farming is generally the mainstay, a family dares to think like this only if they are strong laborers.
If you want people with a shortage of labor, let alone an income of 200 yuan, thank God if you don't hang upside down every year.
This is the reason why Wang Suxue returned here with her family.
In case Dong Keqin can no longer stay in the army after recovering from his injuries, or if he changes jobs and does not have a good job, he will definitely have a better life when he returns to the village to fish than outside.
In fact, fishing is not as interesting as you imagined, and after staying on the boat for a long time, the blue sea is actually quite boring.
A whole set of actions such as casting nets, pulling nets, and fish out repeatedly, and at the beginning you can see what kind of fish you have hit, and after looking at a few nets, you will lose interest.
It's no wonder that friends of the opposite sex who had a good time in their previous lives once joked that the essence of the beauty of the sea lies in the bikini beauties on the beach or on a cruise ship.
There is no beauty to wash her eyes, the sky and the sea are blue, and I am dizzy when I look at it.
Soon the sun was rising overhead, and the women, because of the good harvest, shouted one by one for the women's captain to put the meal.
The woman captain brought out a small tin stove from the cabin, which was filled with honeycomb coal.
After the stove was built, I filled the cabin with a pot of miscellaneous fish, cleaned it briefly, and then put it on the stove to start cooking lunch.
Huan Huan watched the female captain simply choke the pot with oil, then put in the soybean sauce and stir-fry until fragrant, add water, and after the water boiled, put the processed fish in it and stew.
When the fish is stewed, it is not idle, and when the fish soup is boiling and the whole pot wall is boiling hot, paste cakes on the wall of the pot near the edge of the fish soup.
The rest of the time was waiting, and the smell of fish and the smell of food in the bread were mixed together, so that Duan Huan sat at the stern of the boat and couldn't help but swallow two mouthfuls of saliva.
When the captain lifted the lid of the pot and shouted to open the rice, the rich fragrance was even more mouth-watering, and he couldn't help but touch his hungry stomach.
"Little fish is hungry, right?" Wang Suxue looked at the action of touching her stomach and asked with a smile.
Duan Huan was a little embarrassed, "I wasn't too hungry, but the captain's food was so fragrant, and my stomach began to protest!" ”
Listening to the words of Huanhuan, the serious captain also smiled, "If you feel fragrant, you can eat more for a while, and you won't be able to spare any good dishes on the boat, but this fish pot can still manage enough!" ”
"If you have the captain's words, then I won't pretend to be polite." It is typical to climb up the pole.
This dish was originally called fish pot baba, which is not only the practice of "putting all the meals in one pot and stewing" is very extensive.
Even the way of eating is quite rough, one person holds a pair of chopsticks, and does not use vegetable plates and rice bowls.
Even the pot and stove were placed on the small deck, and everyone squatted or sat around the pot to eat.
Take a bite of the fish, the fresh and tender fish with the rich soybean sauce fragrance, the fragrance instantly overflows the mouth, making the appetite particularly satisfying.
Another bite of the golden cornmeal poop, the part of the corn poop soaked in the fish broth, glittering with oil.
The corn baba with fragrant fish soup is the most flavorful and quintessential part of this pot stew.
This corn cake with a crispy bottom and a soft glutinous top, after soaking the fish soup for such a long time, the umami of the fish soup has soaked into the dough.
One bite of the cake can eat the original flavor of the grain itself, and you can also eat the rich flavor of fish soup, this delicious feeling can only be said to be amazing.
Huan Huan found that although there was a lot of noise outside, these women fishermen still respected the oldest taboos and customs of fishing.
When eating fish, whether it is a large fish or a small fish in the pot, slowly remove the empty fish bones after eating one side, and then continue to eat the bottom side, and never turn the fish over.
Whether it is river fresh or seafood, in the entire fishing industry, all words and actions related to "turning" are taboo.
When you really have to turn things over, you can only use words such as "U-turn" instead.
Before a little while, the fish in the cabin were almost full, and at the order of the captain, the ship turned around and returned.
On the way back, cast two more nets, and the cabin will be properly full.
