Chapter 618 Fifty Ways to Eat Locusts
"Why don't you believe it? If you don't believe me, turn to the last page!"

Xu Ding knew what Cao Cao and Lu Bu were thinking, so he reminded them to continue flipping through the booklet.

The two opened the pages at the same time, only to see that on the last page were written "Fifty Ways to Eat Locusts" in eight big characters!
Fifty ways to eat locusts?

Can you really eat?

There are fifty more tricks!
Are you eating locusts or a locust feast?

The two didn't make a sound, but read carefully.

The first method is called "Eighteen Monsters, Three Locusts and One Dish".

Collect the adult locusts, first scald them with boiling water, remove the wings and useless limbs, and slowly roast them in a pan until the water dries up and turns yellow, then add sesame oil and pepper seasoning, Huang Shengsheng’s locusts can grow from There is a tempting aroma inside and out.

One bite, there is a fragrance of grass and valley.

Or dry the locust wax, and when "friends come from afar", fry it on a plate and get a couple of small wines, which is a good treat for guests and friends.

Silk!
Seeing this dish, Cao Cao and Lu Bu seemed to have smelled the fragrance from the scriptures, and their minds were filled with the deliciousness of biting golden locusts.

Xu Ding didn't speak, quietly waiting for people to continue to look out.

Soon Cao Cao and Lu Bu saw the following - "fried locusts", "pancake tired locusts", "roasted locusts" and so on, until the last "flying locust feast".

Each one is ingenious, and easy to do and learn.

After watching it, the two felt uneasy for a long time.

Locusts!

How can one eat the punishment from heaven to the human world?

Locusts are the devil in hell. They can be fried or roasted.

It's unheard of, it's appalling, my face changes when I hear it, it smells...it should be very fragrant!
"Bokang, did you research all of these?" Cao Cao couldn't contain his excitement, but he still hesitated.

The punishment from heaven can still be resolved in this way.

Xu Ding said: "Of course, if you don't believe me, then we will send people to catch some now. We will deep-fry and roast the locusts on the spot. You will know after eating."

Lü Bu and Cao Cao did not reject this proposal, and they sent people to follow Xu Ding's people to catch the locusts.

Soon they came back with a full ten sacks in net bags.

According to the operation method stated in the brochure given by Xu, first scald the locusts to death with boiling water, then remove the inedible parts, put them in an oil pan, or bake them.

Soon the scent of lure incense filled the surroundings.

Golden oily grasshoppers were delivered to everyone's table.

Xu Ding picked up a deep-fried golden grasshopper and threw it into his mouth. After a few bites, it was crispy, fragrant on the outside and tender on the inside.

The rich protein and golden crispy skin are stirred between the teeth.

Seeing Xu Ding eating with gusto, both Cao Cao and Lu Bu swallowed.

It's really edible, judging by Xu Ding's expression, it's quite delicious.

Lu Bu was the first to grab two and threw them into his mouth. After taking two bites, his eyes lit up and his expression lit up. Then he grabbed a handful and threw them into his mouth.

Then he poured a bowl of wine and drank it with his head up, with an expression of enjoyment.

Cao Cao also took a deep breath, lifted one and opened his mouth to bite halfway.

Sure enough, his eyes lit up the next moment, he put the other half into his mouth, and swallowed it in two or three bites.

Wei Lie licked his lips, clapped his hands and laughed wildly: "Good! Good! Great! It's so delicious..."

"I'm not lying to you. Is this meat similar to shrimp? It's juicy and tender." Xu Ding asked with a smile.

The expressions of Lu Bu and Cao Cao told him all this.

People in later generations will be full of praise after eating this rare fried grasshopper.

In this era of material scarcity and simple ingredients, fried grasshoppers are really a rare product.

"It's delicious, and you're the king. To come up with such a method to exterminate locusts, I'm not as good as Lu Bu." Lu Bu ate heartily, drinking in a big bowl, and he was unrestrained. He greeted his subordinates who had been busy with him for a long time, and hurried to start. eat.

Cao Cao's soldiers stared at the Bingzhou general who was eating, and then at Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sighed leisurely: "In terms of food, there is nothing better than Donglai or Bokang. The dishes made by the Hero Inn have always been the best in the world. I didn't expect that simple locusts can be eaten like this in your hands." There are many tricks, the fortune of the world, and the fortune of the people."

Cao Cao's subordinates were secretly anxious, my lord, don't sigh, just ask if you can eat it, if you don't do it, they will be snatched by the Bingzhou army.

"Stop talking about fake space, Meng De, hurry up and let your subordinates taste it, or they will rebel." Xu Ding joked, and everyone immediately burst into laughter.

Cao Cao then said: "Try it all, it tastes good, and when you get back, give me all your strength to catch locusts, and give me all [-] ways to eat them by frying and grilling!"

"It's my lord!" Cao Jun's officers and men were already drooling, so they rushed out, grabbed a handful with one hand, and put it in their mouths.

All of a sudden, the sound of crispness continued, and the sound of shouting "delicious and delicious" was endless.

"Okay, I've already eaten, and I've given you the information that should be given to you. I will withdraw first, and we will work together to overcome the locust plague. I believe we will definitely win the battle against locusts." Xu Dingjian When you're done, both Cao Cao and Lu Bu took the lead and ate the grasshoppers, so they didn't stay any longer.

He has long been tired of eating fried locusts, and his generals have also tasted them, so no one competes with Cao Cao and Lu Bu's people for food.

"Wait for Bokang, there is one thing you haven't finished!" Cao Cao swallowed a grasshopper, wiped his hands quickly, and chased down the earthen platform.

Xu Ding turned around and said, "What else is there for Meng De?"

Cao Cao said: "Bokang, didn't you say at the beginning that locusts are rich in nutrients, fresh and tender, and delicious like shrimps. The structure of nutrients in their bodies is more reasonable than that of livestock and poultry, and they can be eaten as military rations instead of meat!"

Xu Ding said: "I did say it, why is there something Mengde doesn't understand?"

Cao Cao said: "We have tasted the Bokang locusts, and it is the same as what you said, but how to replace the army rations, can you elaborate."

Cao Cao believes that the last sentence of Xu Ding is the most critical.

Turning locusts into military rations is definitely not simply fried, grilled or 48 other ways to eat them.

"Hahaha, Meng De, Meng De, you are really careful and noticed this. It is true that locusts can replace military rations, but the method is very complicated and requires a lot of things, such as... for example, many things that you don't have, and there are many things you can't do. So Mengde, if you catch more locusts than you can eat, you can wash them, dry them and sell them to me, then we can cooperate more!" Having said this, Xu Ding got on his horse and waved at Cao Cao. Then he left with his men.

At this time Lu Bu also heard something and came over, saw Xu Ding leaving, and said in his mouth: "Xu Ding also collects locusts, can this thing be exchanged for money?"

Cao Cao's face kept twitching, all the time.

Good Xu Bokang, you throw a smoke popper out, throw a bait down, then pat your ass and leave.
