Chapter 150: Catching the Bamboo Rat
"Little one?" Cai Youyou looked at the wine man in some surprise and raised his eyebrows.
"yes." The wine man smiled: "You are food hunters, you should know that on Cui Weixing, in addition to bamboo shoots and bamboo sunflowers, there is also a delicacy called bamboo rats." ”
Bamboo rats are rodents named for their love of eating bamboo, and inhabit bamboo forests.
On the almost uninhabited Emerald Microstar, bamboo rats pose a great threat to the growth of bamboo.
In order to protect this bamboo forest, but also to protect the bamboo wine they have worked so hard to brew, Jiugong and his grandson Zhuqing will bring tools to catch some bamboo rats from time to time, on the one hand, to protect the bamboo forest, on the other hand, to obtain some nutrients in this protein-deficient living environment, to sacrifice their own five internal organs temple.
"So are we going to catch the bamboo rat next?" Cai Youyou asked with bright eyes.
No wonder she saw Zhu Qing carrying a few cages woven with bamboo strips, which were originally intended to be used to catch bamboo rats.
Bamboo rats, that's the delicacy mentioned in her father's notes.
Did you finally have the pleasure of tasting it today?
The wine man smiled.
He wanted to raise his thick hands and caress the cute little girl's head, but he was afraid that he would scare her.
"yes. Didn't I tell you before? I'm going to come out and look for ingredients to eat at noon. I'm talking about this kind of bamboo rat. ”
"The last time I came with Ah Xun, I also caught bamboo rats." Wang Fatzi said: "We used the method of smoking. ”
He clearly remembered that because of the first operation, neither of them was very skilled, and it took a long time to catch only two or three bamboo rats, but the faces of both him and Mo Xun were blackened.
The wine man nodded: "The method of smoking, as well as the method of striking and scareping, are more commonly used. It's rare for you juniors to be here today, so I'll demonstrate both of these methods, let's catch a few more bamboo rats, so that we can eat enough. ”
The so-called method of smoking is to prepare a thick bamboo tube in advance, leaving a bamboo knot at one end and opening at the other end.
Next, find the cave where the bamboo rat lives, put hay in the bamboo tube, make a small hole at the end of the knot, insert a hollow thin bamboo, light the grass, aim at the hole, plug the gap between the hole, and leave only one exit, block the other holes, blow smoke inside, the bamboo rat will run to the hole as soon as it is smoked, and you can catch it with a cage.
The method of percussion fright is to find the burrow where the bamboo rat lives, pull out the surrounding weeds, hit the ground with a wooden stick, the bamboo rat is frightened, it will run out of the hole, at this time, cover it with a prepared cage, and move the cage, find an opportunity to catch its tail, you can catch it.
Jiugong and Zhuqing have lived in this bamboo forest for a long time, and they are extremely proficient in the technique of catching bamboo rats.
After a short time, the two of them used two methods to catch three fat and tender bamboo rats.
The wine man smiled and handed over the killed bamboo rat to Cai Youyou and the others, and said to them: "The appetizers are available, but how to cook them, then I will leave it to you." ”
"Don't worry, we will definitely live up to the ingredients you worked so hard to find, let alone the delicious bamboo wine." Cai Youyou replied with a smile. Read the latest chapter of "Otherworldly Restaurant: Xueba's Private Caipaw Book House" for free for the first time.
