Chapter 584: Slate Coconut Crab
Lin Chou seemed to have some kind of Malisu (??) on his face. )... Uh, the divine radiance of Mary,
"The beautiful wilderness, the vast ocean, all kinds of amazing plants, exotic animals and their wonderful tastes to look forward to, these are the best gifts that nature has given to mankind......"
(There should be BGM here, but it's a pity that he's not a potted plant with sound effects everywhere he goes.) )
No matter what other people's expressions are, they are verbose,
"As a self-motivated chef, the whole of nature can be my kitchen, stewed, braised and stir-fried... It's an attitude to treat all fresh ingredients with the utmost humility and respect....."
And then he was a little off track,
"In this case, how can you still bring a weapon, of course, a kitchen knife definitely doesn't count."
The kitten's mouth never closed, and finally popped out, "Brag!" ”
Lei Heng and Jin San glanced at each other.
"Chefs with dreams are scary."
"Feelings: The whole world is his garden?"
Jin San originally wanted to say something arrogant, but after thinking about it, he didn't seem to be able to say it.
There seems to be nothing wrong with a chef saying this, just like a scientific researcher who delineates his research scope as the entire ordered universe, in the final analysis, it can only be called a broad perspective and lofty ideals......
Lin Chou laughed dryly, he felt embarrassed, sure enough, a lie has to be fulfilled with countless lies.
As he spoke, he had knocked out small cracks in the pincers of the three coconut crabs, opened the back shells to remove the parotid glands, and then crackled and began to grind the garlic and olive oil mixed together.
"It's olive oil... It's hard to imagine that after Mingguang transforms into a tropical climate, it is difficult to even grow olives... It's not scientific. ”
Olive oil is cold-pressed from raw olives, which is simple to make and has a refreshing taste.
Unfortunately, it is difficult to see adult olive trees near Yanhui Mountain, and the oil is still not ready for fire.
Olive oil was also very popular before the cataclysm, because it was cold-pressed without chemical and heat treatment, so it could retain the natural nutrients to the greatest extent and had good natural health effects.
Of course, there was no market for this during the cataclysm, and a few catastrophic poor people with yellow faces and thin muscles were more than twice as good as the physical fitness or health of ordinary people before the cataclysm.
But the taste of olive oil is still so fresh and natural, which is difficult to completely replace by other oils.
Once the olive oil is mixed with the minced garlic, there is no need for other seasonings.
Arrange the coconut crab on a slate, drizzle with olive oil and garlic, put another slate and coconut crab on top, and drizzle it again, so that it is layered three times and then set above the fire.
The claws and legs of the coconut crab have cracked due to the percussion, but after a little heat, the gap becomes larger, and juice and bubbles immediately emerge from the cracks, and the aroma of olive oil and garlic can easily penetrate the crab meat.
Lin Chou said,
"I always feel a little sorry for the value of coconut crabs when they eat like this, I think they crawled from the other side of the island, at least as far as I can see, there are really no mature coconut trees in this direction - it would be nice to have coconut, coconut water is a natural sauce, and a raw coconut crab casserole stewed with coconut on such a desert island is simply the most delicious..."
"Original coconut milk crab meat pot?"
"Yes, it is to take out the crab meat completely and put it into the semi-mature coconut shell and cook it with coconut water, the heat of the flame is filtered through the coconut half-hard and half-green shell layer by layer to stew the coconut milk and crab meat inside, without iron and no seasoning, this method is called the original coconut milk crab meat pot, there is no fireworks in the world... Coconut milk white crab meat is like snow, and the fragrance is overflowing... Hey, it's satisfying just thinking about it. ”
Smelling the aroma gradually escaping from the stone slab, and then listening to Lin Chou's words, everyone was poisoned.
Cypress kitten, "Suck yo." ”
Jin San, "Suck and slip." ”
Lei Heng, "Suck..."
Well, he wasn't sucking, the old man didn't hold back, and he was already scolding.
The taste of olive oil is very light, with a light aroma like plant fruit, which is the perfect match with seafood, and the fresh garlic is even more intoxicating under the scorching slate.
A young evolutionary who stayed to watch the home nursery said,
"I feel like I smell the garlic crayfish."
Everyone rolled their eyes, this kid was eighty percent underbeaten......
Then, the juice in the crab shell gradually boils, the crab meat turns from translucent to white, and the hot air rushes out from the cracks in the crab claws and crab body, making a "sneering" sound, and the entire three-layer stone slab is enveloped in delicious steam, like a huge steamer.
Lin Chou glanced at it,
"Yo, I can't see it, the heat conductivity of this slate is okay, and the top and bottom are boiling together almost in a minute."
There was a sound of rustling in the bushes, and Qin Wuyong and the three evolutionaries came back with a huge net woven from the leaves and branches of various plants, and in the net pocket were a huge mountain of coconut crabs, all of them huge and hideous, waving their pincers like monsters, not dead yet.
Well, there's a bunch of green lemon fruit next to it.
Qin Wuyong ran over triumphantly and commanded everyone to order a few more fires to come out,
"Boss Lin, what do you look like in my eyes, this lemon is not ripe yet, it is as hard as a stone, but it's still good to make a dipping sauce, right?"
Lin Chou pinched,
"If you're not afraid of astringency, you can still squeeze out a little juice, and you can try how it tastes."
“... It's better than nothing, okay, hey, what's the smell, garlic? ”
After almost lying on the fire and looking at it carefully, Qin Wuyong also fell into the same resentment,
"Boss Lin, you haven't forgotten to bring oil, salt, sauce and vinegar..."
Lin Chou glanced at him, "Have you forgotten to bring live broadcast equipment?" ”
Qin Wuyong said as a matter of course, "Of course not, this is the guy I eat." ”
"It's the spice for my meal."
“...”
The coconut crab ripened quickly, and when Lin Chou took out a delicate crystal grinding bottle and came out, the eyes of the people around him were even more wrong.
Grinding some pepper, Lin Chou removed the three stone slabs from the fire.
Qin Wuyong was very shameless and snatched a slate and ran away, a group of people were chasing after him, and Bai Kitten also dragged one away and put it in front of Jin Sanlei Heng.
As for the others, they didn't have this kind of treatment, so they had to gather in front of the fire to support themselves, but everyone was very interested, and the smell of the coconut crab roasted on the fire was a little more expensive.
This big coconut crab is at least a few dozen catties, and Lin Chou has always eaten relatively little, so he actually wants to share some with them.
But......
Glancing at Lei Heng and Jin San's white teeth rattling the crab pincers, Lin Chou felt that he might be wrong-the direct leader of the family hadn't spoken yet.
Grilled coconut crab in front of you...... Or rather, it is more like steaming, due to the dual effect of the blocking of the slate and the huge amount of water stored in the crab shell, even if the crab shell is exposed outside the slate, there is no trace of flame smoking, especially the constant oozing juice in those cracks confirms this.
Along the cracks, the shell can be easily broken to reveal the white and tender meat.
The meat of coconut crab is very strong and tough, and it will not stick to the crab meat like ordinary crabs, and it is easy to tear apart when opened.
And the crab meat is full of texture and shiny, with a small fusiform meat filament bulging in the middle, and the two ends are pointed and tightly connected together, which together constitute a huge piece of crab meat with a complete crab claw part.
Lin Chou is holding a pair of crab claws, after the hideous crab shells are all removed, the forked meat of the crab claws looks very cartoonish, and the translucent fleshy surface is slightly a little cute baby red, and the more red it is to the tip, the more obvious it is.
"Shhhh Hot..."
Lin Chou felt extremely cruel at this moment, and a large piece of the complete crab claw meat was instantly missing and became mutilated.
However, it is full of mouth, and it is all smooth.
The crab meat has the flavor of the sea, which is unique to seafood, and the other part is a fruity aroma like coconut meat.
It's hard to imagine that eating a crab can make such a feeling.
Crabs, like fish, are very easy to shape the type of ingredients, as can be seen from the famous drunken crab and other recipes.
It's hard to see coconut crabs swimming in the sea, they are even a little afraid of water, and if they accidentally fall into the water and can't climb up, they are likely to drown themselves, and it won't take long, about five minutes.
There is only one reason why it is worth them to venture closer to the coast, and that is to breed.
The reason why coconut crabs can be found on many isolated islands in the ocean is because they will row their eggs in the sea, leaving them to drift alone with the currents, and reach distant islands along the way.
Ahem, it's far away.
Coconut crabs live on islands and eat coconut as their staple food, and it is the meat of the coconut crab that makes it look so different, and it is hard to forget after tasting it.
The faint coconut aroma of coconut crab meat is very satisfying to people's perceptions, and it is like eating an extraordinarily rich seafood feast and sucking sweet coconut milk, which is simply perfect.
If there is a downside, it is that this fruity crab meat seems to be difficult to eat, and before you know it, you will eat several percent more than your usual meal.
Olive oil and minced garlic are a good way to enrich the flavor of the sweet crab meat, and pepper as an addition is like the icing on the cake, but it is easy to overlook its existence - even if the pepper flavor is still very strong, but it can't steal the limelight of crab meat, but makes it more and more intense, which is very wonderful.
After almost eating two crab legs, Lin Chou was already full.
Qin Wuyong ran back dejectedly, obviously not taking advantage of the large group of evolutionaries, and the roasted coconut crab was robbed.
"Hehe, Boss Lin finished eating? It's just right, and I'll do the rest for me..."
Lin Chou looked a little pity, "The fly in the ointment is that now is not the season for coconut crabs to hold eggs, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”
The two veteran academicians looked at Lin Chou very incomprehensibly, this guy seemed to be a little nitpicking and too harsh.
I think when did the two most veteran researchers of the scientific research institute have eaten such a sumptuous meal when they went out to conduct scientific research? Squeeze the canned food of the two flavors together and heat it, which is equivalent to the New Year's holiday, okay!
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, under the hurried command of Lei Heng and Jin San, the escort team was divided into several teams and set off, arranging some kind of ... The style is very dreamy of the big-headed instrument, and the various red, yellow, blue and green lines are a mess, and outsiders are always confused.
Lin Chou asked,
"This is how the scientific research institute is conducted?"
The cypress kitten coughed,
"This is the simplest instrument to test geomagnetic fluctuations, well, it is actually very good to analyze the formation of the island, as well as seismic waves, sound waves and other instruments, before the sea hunting team reported the news of the island, and the scientific research institute also found some unusual fluctuations - well, of course, in the end, you still have to go up the mountain, it is best to dive to the bottom of the island to see, but it is too dangerous, there is not much hope."
"So what the hell are you here to investigate?"
"Confidential!"
“...”
So Lin Chou prepared to act on his own, looking for Lin Frog or something, anyway, after arriving on the island, there would be nothing to do with him.
Qin Wuyong originally wanted to keep up, but unfortunately, his task was not like Lin Chou, who could pick and choose at any time.
Hearing Qin Wuyong say that there might be forest frogs on this island, Lin Chou's first feeling was that this was impossible at all.
The forest frog that Lin Chou is looking for is not only a forest frog, but also a treasure, that is, the Northeast forest frog, also known as the Husky Toad (Hash Worm), Snow Clam, and Mountain Ghost, which is ranked among the four mountain treasures and the eight treasures of the palace, which are rare things before the cataclysm, not to mention after the cataclysm.
Forest frogs are often known not for their "eight treasures" or "mountain treasures", but for the forest frog oil.
Forest frog oil is the essence of forest frog, the medicinal value is very high, delay aging and anti-oxidation, enhance the body's immunity, replenish deficiency and strengthen the essence of the yang, and even the anti-cancer effect is very significant, is a pure natural medicine, food and use of the best products, whether it is male or female, its effect is obvious from its high value can be seen one or two.
Frog oil is not really oil, usually the so-called frog oil is just the dry product of the reproductive gonads of crude female frogs, if it is really extracted into "oil", I am afraid that 99% of people will forget it in the dust - anyway, they can't afford to use (eat), what do they remember?
Only the Northeast forest frog oil can be called the real forest frog oil, and the forest frog oil produced in other places can only be called "pseudo oil" or "fake oil", among which the forest frog oil originating in the Changbai Mountains is called "big oil", and Heilongjiang produces "small oil", with a slight difference - small oil can be compared to soft gold, and big oil can be compared to soft diamond.
This thing is not like ordinary frogs, which only want to live in high-altitude and relatively cold mountain forests, and will only jump down the mountain during the spawning period to find those ice-melted streams to lay eggs and breed, let alone see a little salty water.
To say that there really is such a thing on this island, then what the hell did it come about? Long wings flew hundreds of kilometers over the sea and landed safely? As a result, you are still looking for a broken island that is not suitable for the survival of the population at all?
