Chapter 42 How to Eat a Seafood Dinner
Huo Chi touched his stomach and smiled, it should be good to be able to eat an ordinary meal once in a while, although he now feels that the taste of monsters is actually better than ordinary ingredients, but seeing Qingqing so happy, he also became happy.
"Brothers, don't stand still, let's eat. Xiao Jian sat down first, reached out and picked up a mussel, and swallowed the shellfish meat in one bite.
"Well, wait a minute, since the captain has given us orange wine, we should drink this first, it is a good aperitif, rich in citrus essential oil and vitamin C, which can increase appetite, prevent colds, and help to recover from fatigue. Huo Chi opened the orange wine, and a rich orange flavor emanated along with the wine.
"Wow! it's so fragrant!" Su Qingqing smelled the aroma of orange wine and was in a good mood. She took the goblet handed by Huo Chi, looked at the orange-yellow orange wine, took a shallow sip, and then licked her lips with her pink tongue and said, "It's so delicious, Huo Chi, you can try it too." ”
Huo Chi raised the wine glass in front of his eyes and shook it slightly, the orange wine was slightly sparkling, and the wine body showed a translucent orange-yellow color, which looked really tempting.
He puts the wine glass in his pen, and the rich citrus aroma comes to his face, making people feel like they are in an orange orchard on a midsummer afternoon.
Take a shallow sip, the aroma of orange rushes straight to the taste buds, accompanied by slightly spicy alcohol, it really makes people appetite, I didn't expect the captain's private brew to be quite standard, this is by no means a good wine that can be made at the amateur level.
"Look at this foodie, it takes a long time to ink after taking a sip of wine, it's really different from us. Xiao Jian held up the half-pulled crab and said, "Huo Chi, don't you eat it, the crab is almost gone." ”
Huo Chi sighed softly, you diet world's chin, you really don't know how to taste fine wine, but well! Why do you eat so fast? Quickly give me some leftovers!
Since you've just drunk orange wine, let's try the mussels. Huo Chi took a mussel, gently opened the shell, and the fatty mussel meat inside was exposed, and with a slight pull of his teeth, the shell meat slid into his mouth.
Steamed mussels have a fat and sweet taste, and they can be swallowed almost without chewing, and they are very fresh. He picked up another flower crab, took out the crab meat, and tasted it. The flower crab is also steamed, and the crab meat is sweet and delicious, and it tastes good.
"The meat of this lobster looks good, I'll give you a share. Xiao Jian took out his dagger and was about to cut the lobster, but was stopped by Huo Chi in a low voice.
Xiao Jian was used to being told by Huo Chi to wait a minute, he looked sideways and said, "Why is it this time?"
Huo Chi said: "Different knives have different effects on the taste of food, like lobster, we should pay more attention to it, because our dagger will have a strong metallic taste, after cutting, the lobster meat will be contaminated with this taste, affecting the taste, therefore, it is best to do so." ”
As he spoke, he directly reached out to break the lobster, and then skillfully took out the shrimp meat completely, and said with a smile: "My hands are clean, don't dislike it, everyone." ”
Xiao Jian was simply stunned when he saw this, he put the dagger back into the sleeve, and looked at the shrimp meat that was broken into several parts by Huo Chi, he really didn't know what to say.
Su Qingqing said: "You make all the rice, if you dislike it, how can you eat it, how about I try this lobster." ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her slender hand, took a small piece of shrimp meat and put it in her mouth, chewed it carefully a few times, and then covered her mouth and said, "It's delicious." But she paused again and whispered, "For some reason, I don't think it's as delicious as Huo Chi's spider legs." ”
Huo Chi was happy when he heard this, and he made trouble for a long time, this girl is praising me, Huo Chi said secretly, this steamed lobster is actually steamed so completely, I don't know how it tastes.
He put the shrimp meat in his mouth, sweet and springy, it was a very fresh lobster.
It's just that the cooking methods of these three seafood really make Huo Chi very speechless, all of them are steamed, all of them are steamed with a little salt, although it is good to eat the original taste, but why don't the three seafood change some other cooking methods?
Mussels, for example, can be eaten stir-fried or boiled. Another example is flower crab, which can be fried, cooked, and fried. And lobster is a pity, what about the three good lobsters?
If I were to do these three things, it would be far better than this. Huo Chi shrugged his shoulders, feeling that the people here really couldn't eat, and all the good ingredients were wasted.
Huo Chi saw that the others were eating very well, so he didn't make any comments about gourmets, and let's eat some white bread honestly.
He picked up a piece of thinly sliced white bread, put it under his nose and smelled it, the aroma of the bread entered his nose, and the bread was quite fresh. But the entrance of the bread made Huo Chi a little disappointed, is this the white bread made by the chef of a luxury merchant ship?
The fluffiness that white bread should have is not reflected in this loaf, and the smell of butter that should be in this bread is very bland.
After Huo Chi ate the bread in a few bites, he stopped eating it, and the chef who made this seafood feast was really inferior to the skills of ordinary housewives in the original world.
"You're so picky, boy. Abu found out Huo Chi's thoughts, and couldn't help but complain: "These ingredients are very good, although eating them is useless to the system." ”
Huo Chi said: "Of course gourmets must be picky, otherwise they will eat whatever they give, or what kind of gourmet." ”
Su Qingqing saw that Huo Chi had only tasted a few bites, so he stopped moving, and was about to ask him why he didn't eat, but the door was knocked again.
"Who?" Qin Lang asked with some impatience as he put down the crab shell in his hand.
"I, An Hao, open the door... An Hao's voice sounded outside the door, but the tone was strange.
Qin Lang frowned slightly, wiped his hands and stood up, he opened the door and found that An Hao had changed a special soldier's clothes into a white dress at some point. A white dress with his blonde hair is quite suitable.
"Qingqing... Is Qingqing there?" An Hao opened his mouth, and the smell of wine came to his nose, Qin Lang hurriedly turned to the side, and gave up the position of the door with a cold face.
An Hao drove straight in, his steps were vain, he staggered when he walked, and he looked like he had drunk too much.
"Qingqing... Qingqing, you drink two glasses with me, drink two glasses. He raised the wine bottle in his hand, shook it twice in front of Su Qingqing, and then raised the bottle to Su Qingqing's mouth and said, "Come... Take a bite ... The best wines are hard to come by. ”
"An Hao, you've drunk too much, go back quickly!" Su Qingqing didn't like An Hao in the first place, and he was even more displeased when he saw him so unreasonable.
Who knew that An Hao actually stepped forward when he heard this, grabbed Su Qingqing's arm, and insisted on pouring the wine down to her. Huo Chi on the side saw that his anger surged upward, and he walked over directly and snatched An Hao's wine bottle down, and pushed the drunk backwards and said, "Get out!"
