Chapter 50: Eating Crabs
Happy times are always short-lived, and the next day, after cleaning up, a few people went to the shop.
Brother Changlin went to buy the materials needed for the day, and it was still early, so Li Miaomiao and Sister-in-law Changlin were preparing in the kitchen, and the two children followed the shopkeeper Zhu to read and write.
After a while, Brother Changlin came back after shopping, followed by Xiao Liu, knowing that he was looking for Li Miaomiao, and everyone was familiar with it, so Shopkeeper Zhu took someone directly to the back kitchen.
"Why did Little Sixth Brother come here?" Li Miaomiao asked suspiciously.
A smile appeared on Xiao Liu's face, and he raised the heavy thing in his hand and said, "The people on the Zhuangzi sent a few baskets of crabs, and the shopkeeper asked people to send some for you to try."
Touching the back of his head, Xiao Liucai added embarrassedly, "The shopkeeper also said that he was tired of eating steamed crabs." Knowing that Miao Miao is the most ingenious, there must be some different ways to eat, when the time comes, just let him taste it. ”
Anyone who is praised will be happy, Li Miaomiao smiled and asked people to put the crab on the table next to him.
Opening the lid, plump crabs came into view, Li Miaomiao's saliva was watering, and a kind of crab cultivation naturally appeared in his mind.
Autumn crabs are the most fat, and what Xiao Liu sent was in excellent condition, Li Miaomiao smiled and thanked her, and promised to send them to the full building, and Xiao Liu left satisfied.
Because they were just delivered, these crabs are still very fresh. It was still very early at noon, so Li Miaomiao took Changlin and his family to clean it together.
Yanyan and Xinxin, who were studying, ran away after Xiaoliu came, and Li Miaomiao no longer held them back.
Except for Li Miaomiao, several people have never seen such a big crab, especially the little girl Yanyan, who has seen a crab for the first time since she was born. The trembling little hands that wanted to touch but didn't dare to get started made everyone laugh.
Li Miaomiao didn't care about her, Xinxin next to her was extraordinarily patient, guiding this Yanyan step by step to try to make contact, and after a while, the little girl had the courage to pick up the crab and play, Li Miaomiao felt a little sorry for the crab that was being played.
Seeing the scene of this brother and sister being close, Li Miaomiao's heart was naturally comforted.
cleaned up, Li Miaomiao didn't start doing it right away, so she took out the liquor stored in the store and let these crabs drink to their heart's content first.
Towards noon, the guests have arrived one after another. Today's guests were a little more than usual, and the regular customers even joked that they didn't want to eat lunch without her noodles. Li Miaomiao was naturally happy when she heard this.
It was not until the time of Shen that the last group of guests was sent away. Li Miaomiao rested for a day yesterday, and her physical strength recovered very well, so she was not very tired.
Hang up the closing sign and ask Brother Changlin to go out and buy some rice wine and come back. If you don't make steamed crab, sake is necessary.
In her previous life, because of her physique, she had never eaten seafood. So I have a special yearning for seafood and the like, and when I couldn't sleep late at night, my favorite thing to do was to watch the food broadcast, and of course, the crab eating broadcast was not less.
I remember one year in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the company gave out benefits, and one of them was crabs. She took it home and made it into a drunken crab, but she couldn't eat it, so she could only smell it and throw it away after enjoying it, which was really sad to think about. And since I came here, I haven't eaten anything seafood other than fish.
Soon, Brother Changlin came back from drinking, and Li Miaomiao entered the kitchen and got busy.
The first thing to do is to get a drunken crab, and to say that this drunken crab is very simple. Put the prepared seasoning into the jar, stir well, then put in the crab that has drunk the liquor, then pour in the rice wine, submerge all the ingredients, and finally seal the jar and place it.
Because the crab sent by Xiaoliu is too large, it is estimated that it will take four or five days to taste it. Li Miaomiao began to prepare another dish, spicy crab.
I was already drunk with all the crabs when I was making drunk crabs before, but it's a lot easier to do now.
After it was done, Li Miaomiao first packed one in the jar, and then took all the multipliers out and served them to everyone to eat.
Looking at the delicious crabs on the table, everyone only felt that their mouths were full of liquid, but no one moved.
Li Miaomiao couldn't help but be a little curious when she saw that everyone didn't move, because she asked, "Why don't you eat?" ”
Seeing that everyone's faces were all Hao Ran for a while, the little girl Yanyan said, "Sister, how can I eat this thing, I won't." ”
Li Miaomiao suddenly understood, and it was no wonder that everyone didn't know how to eat, just because this crab was not common in ancient times, especially in their countryside.
Like Chang Lin, although the two have seen it, they are all small river crabs, the people in the village don't know how to eat, and it is very troublesome to eat, and occasionally they are fed to pigs.
Li Miaomiao taught everyone how to eat in great detail. After some hard work, everyone finally ate the crab meat, only to feel that the fresh tongue was about to fall off.
"Let's eat as much as you like, there are many more, Shopkeeper Zhu, Brother Changlin, sister-in-law, you eat with rice wine, otherwise eating too much is not good for your health. And the two of you, you are not allowed to eat two more", Li Miaomiao ordered one by one.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and when Li Miaomiao saw this, she picked up the jar and sent it to Shopkeeper Gu. The crab should still be eaten hot, otherwise the taste will not be fresh.
The shopkeeper Gu, who had already seen through the autumn water, saw that someone was coming, and hurried to the door to greet him. Seeing his eagerness, Li Miaomiao couldn't help laughing, this is really a proper foodie.
I took a bowl and poured out the crab in the jar, which was well insulated, and it was still steaming.
Shopkeeper Gu was already impatient when he smelled the smell, and he was even more hurried to get started at this time. Li Miaomiao saw that his crab eating method was quite professional, and he was satisfied with the wine.
didn't care about him, handed the remaining few in the jar to Xiao Liu, and Xiao Liu thanked him gratefully, and then took them aside and ate them.
He didn't dare to eat in front of the shopkeeper, for no other reason, he was afraid that the shopkeeper would rob him, and he had done this before.
After a while, there was already a mountain of crab shells in front of the shopkeeper Gu, and after eating the bowl, he licked his lips unsatisfied.
Li Miaomiao looked helpless and funny, is it so delicious, she also ate two after she made it, and felt that the taste was okay.
In the past life, I was very looking forward to it when I couldn't eat it, but now I feel average when I eat it in my mouth, which may be the so-called what I can't get is always the best.
"The crab made by Miao Miao is really delicious, and I will let Xiaoliu send you the rest later", the crab is delicious, even if this girl sent it, it is a little less, and he is not addicted to eating at all.
Hearing this, Li Miaomiao couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth, this person didn't have a lot of fun.
Shopkeeper Gu helped him in his most difficult time, and in Li Miaomiao's heart, he had already regarded him as a relative, so he opened his mouth to persuade, "No matter how good things are, they must be done in moderation, crabs are cold things, you should refrain from doing so, but you can't hurt your body for the sake of appetite." ”
Shopkeeper Gu listened to it in his heart, and the smile on his face became more and more, but he still wanted to ask for some benefits, "It's not that you make it too delicious, I can't hold back for a while, you can make some more for the old man." ”
Seeing his flattering expression, Li Miaomiao was helpless in her heart, but she didn't directly refuse, "It's okay, this crab can't be eaten when it dies, it's a pity not to eat it here for you, and I'll let the little sixth brother send it to me later." But I can't eat it anymore today."
Seeing that his face was instantly clouded, Li Miaomiao added with a smile, "I made some drunken crabs, and the taste is even more delicious than this spicy crab." However, it will take a few days to absorb the flavor, and it will be good to send it back for you to taste when the time comes. ”
After hearing this, the shopkeeper Gu smiled again on his face, and sent the person away affectionately.
