Carry an aquarium with you

Chapter 219 Grilled Beef Ribs from Siberia

When Qin Feng separated a large piece of fish weighing dozens of kilograms and put it on the table, everyone present couldn't help swallowing.

In fact, the flesh of the plaice was too white and crystal clear, which intuitively stimulated everyone's appetite.

Because the fish was handled clean enough, Qin Feng simply cut off a piece and made it into sashimi.

The texture of the crystal white fish is clearly visible, and the part near the skin is slightly pink, which makes the fish look more beautiful.

Although the flatfish is so big, the fish tastes not bad at all. It is the same as the toothfish in Antarctica, and the size of the individual does not affect the quality of the fish.

Like tuna, it still depends on the fat content.

A fish is so big, a dozen people naturally can't eat that much, so half of it was directly handed over to the program team to exchange for supplies, and the rest was cryogenically frozen.

At that time, the stars will take it away as a gift, so the program team bought this fish from Qin Feng, and it cost [-] oceans.

The main thing is that a fish broke the balance of the next life, and it can persist until the end of this period.

For the sake of broadcast volume, the director was naturally unwilling to let the stars survive like this, so he deliberately spent money to buy it.

Qin Feng doesn't care, anyway, he is not afraid that he will not find his prey.

However, during the fishing trip in the next few days, I did not encounter any special fish species. The time passed quickly, and the few days of recording passed by in a flash.

After bidding farewell to Charlotte and the others, Qin Feng re-boarded the Canglong, which had been cleaned and maintained at the shipyard, and continued on the Tatar Strait.

In the cab, Li Xinyue was observing the map, and Hualiwu was leaning against her.

The two pointed back and forth on the map, as if they were discussing something.

"Husband, Anna said that they will come here to wait for us in a few days, why don't we stop halfway, just go there!" Seemingly the discussion had come to an end, Li Xinyue pointed to a location on the map and said to Qin Feng.

"They'll be there in a few days?" Qin Feng was slightly taken aback, but he didn't expect Qin Lei and the others to come so early.

Li Xinyue made a satellite phone call with Anna before, and learned about their specific actions, so she explained: "Anna said that she is wandering in the sea every day, and occasionally she has to go to land for activities."

"There are a lot of wild animals in the Kamchatka Peninsula. Some local ethnic minorities can hunt for a living, so they are going to experience it."

"Okay, I got it, let's go there directly!" Qin Feng shrugged helplessly, and changed his final destination.

If he knew that Qin Lei and the others would come earlier, Qin Feng would not start from the Strait of Tartar, but would go directly up from the Pacific Ocean in the east, the distance would be much shorter.

Seven days later, Qin Feng and others arrived at Petropavlovsk, the capital of the Kamchatka Peninsula.

This is the largest city on the Kamchatka Peninsula. Because of the geographical relationship, they saw a city built on a hill from a distance.

The city is surrounded by volcanoes, and the horizon cannot be seen from any corner of the city.

Here is a sub-polar continental climate, and the average maximum temperature in summer is only about [-] degrees.

Now in April, the temperature can barely stay above zero, for Qin Feng and others.

They set out in early spring, then turned back time and came to winter again.

So they can see that the mountains above the city are all white.

Stopping the boat at the pier, Qin Feng saw Qin Lei and Anna in thick clothes, but neither of them came with their daughter.

Obviously, the child is too young to be brought here.

"Why did you suddenly think of coming here?" Qin Feng smiled.

Qin Lei explained: "Originally we planned to wait for you to come over in Alaska, but I met a friend who is Russian and his brother lives here, and then he strongly invited us to come and play."

"I didn't even think about coming here, but he said he could take us hunting and eat bear meat, and the hot springs here are also famous."

"I thought you were also in Russia, so I simply came earlier."

"You mean, your friend's younger brother is Orion?" Qin Feng's eyes lit up immediately.

He himself wanted to meet some hunters here, to see if he could get involved, but he didn't expect that it would take no effort at all.

"Haha, I knew you were interested. Let's go. I'll take you to your residence first." Seeing this, Qin Lei laughed, and then took a few people into a jeep and came to the yard of a bungalow.

"You rented a homestay?" Lynch looked at the house and said.

The house was similar to the one he had rented in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk.

Qin Lei shook his head: "That's not true. The total population of Kamchatka Peninsula is only about [-]. In addition, some local residents here do not intermarry with foreigners, so the population has not been able to increase."

"That's why the land is sparsely populated. This house belongs to my friend's younger brother. It is usually vacant, so I lent it to us."

"They don't live here, they have another house, but they have to go hunting in the past few days, so they first lived in a wooden house in the mountains."

"You guys rest well tonight, and I'll take you there tomorrow."

Qin Lei led them into the house and asked them to tidy up their rooms.

In the evening, Qin Lei and Anna went out to purchase ingredients. It didn't take long before the two of them entered the venue carrying all kinds of meat and seafood, except that there were not many vegetables.

Lynch saw a king crab the size of a washbasin, and couldn't help complaining speechlessly: "Since I came to Russia, I was still happy when I first saw king crabs, but now my scalp is completely numb. Do you dare to buy more vegetables?" ?”

Qin Lei immediately rolled his eyes: "If you want to buy it, you can buy it. I can't afford it, okay?"

"Forget it, anyway, there are enough vegetables on board, so I might as well eat more when we go out to sea." Lynch decisively walked away when he heard that he was asked to buy vegetables.

Due to climate problems in the Russian Far East, it is difficult to grow vegetables, so most of them are imported, and the price is extremely high, even higher than the price of meat here.

It is impossible to eat all kinds of fresh vegetables like in China.

The next day, a group of people entered the mountain and came to Qin Lei's friend's house.

Originally, Qin Feng thought it would be the small wooden house seen in the video, but it turned out to be a two-story small western-style building on a flat land, with a large yard and high walls outside.

Apart from the fact that it's a bit far from the city center, there's nothing wrong with it.

"Artyom, please introduce. This is my friend Qin Feng, and this is Lynch." Qin Lei smiled and hugged a tall and strong Russian man, and then introduced Qin Feng and others.

Artyom welcomed them with a smile and introduced his brother and family.

His younger brother's name is Maxim, and his job is the same as Artyom's, running a shipyard.

But he opened the factory on his own side, while Artyom opened the factory in Alaska. Qin Lei also met him when he bought the boat.

But Artyom didn't look very enthusiastic, his expression seemed a little serious.

Qin Lei may have noticed this, he smiled and explained to Qin Feng: "Artyom is like this, usually he doesn't talk much and looks serious, but he is actually a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside."

Qin Feng nodded clearly, and Artyom quickly proved himself with actions, he brought out two large plates of pork ribs from the house.

"Friends, today we specially prepared Russian-style grilled beef ribs for you, I hope you will like them." Maxim smiled.

"Of course." Qin Feng looked at the ribs in the two big pots, and couldn't help but click his tongue in his heart. The two big pots must weigh at least fifty catties. How much can we eat?

Pressing down his doubts, he saw that Artyom produced coal from a self-made oven and put it into a small iron oven next to him, then moved out some wood next to him, picked up the ax and prepared chop wood.

So he hurried over and said, "Artyom, maybe you can let me experience it?"

Artyom nodded when he heard the words, and gave him the axe. Although there was no smile on his face, he was standing beside him, apparently worried about whether Qin Feng would be qualified for the job.

However, the job of chopping firewood was not difficult for Qin Feng, and he quickly cut out some firewood suitable for burning.

Seeing this, Artyom nodded, picked up the firewood and put it into the small oven.

Then he came to Maxim who was processing beef ribs, picked up a rib, looked at Qin Lei who was holding a camera and started to shoot, and said: "Look at these beef ribs, they must be used by me. Soup, but I'm going to bake it today."

He spoke English, and the people next to him laughed out loud.

The main reason was that Artyom continued to make serious jokes, which made several people find it very funny.

There was some excess fat on the ribs that needed to be dealt with, so the two brothers took a knife to cut off the fat quickly, and then threw it to the raccoon cat in the yard.

It is worth mentioning that the yard is very large. To the east is a chicken farm, and there are more than a dozen domestic chickens immediately.

Then I raised five raccoon cats, but no dogs.But now there is an extra Xiaojin in the yard, but Xiaojin and Xiaobu are used to getting along, and they don't react much when they see cats.

Qin Feng hung the dog leash on a post again, so the group of cats were a little vigilant and not afraid.

After the steak fat has been processed, the steak is cut into chunks.

It is worth mentioning that each steak is the size of Li Xinyue's fist.

Then, Maxim brought a large pan and began to fry both sides of the steak.

Artyom returned to the house and took out several glasses and a jug of wine he made himself.

Qin Feng and the others watched him fill the glass with twitching corners of their mouths, saying that Russian men are especially good at drinking, and they drank it before they even started eating?

After pouring it, Artyom handed the wine to several men, and then raised his glass and said, "This is brewed last year. This glass is a toast for us to be friends!"

Then Artyom and Maxim stuffed the glass of wine in one sip. The glass was not small, it was a little smaller than a can of Coke, about two-thirds.

Qin Lei took the wine and said with a wry smile: "Drink it, when I first came here I was drunk by them before I even had a meal, but I can't refuse this wine."

Qin Feng: "."

Lynch: "."

The two had no choice but to be bored.The alcohol content is not high, probably around ten degrees, but those who don't drink often can't resist drinking it hard.

Qin Feng is fine, because his physique has been improved, he has no reaction after drinking a cup, he just thinks it is very mellow, with a little sweetness, which is quite delicious.

Lynch didn't drink very much, he used to be a prostitute, and his physique was very average. After drinking this drink, he went straight to the top, and his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"You're cold. Home-brewed wine doesn't have the usual stamina. I guess you're the same as I was on the first day. You poured it before you started eating." Qin Lei felt a little gloating when he saw him like this.

"My friend, if you don't know how to drink, you don't have to force it. I don't want you to be like Lei and collapse before enjoying our food." Maxim immediately persuaded after noticing Lynch's expression.

"." Lynch was speechless. If he knew that Maxim was so easy to talk, he would have rejected him a long time ago.

Artyom seemed to think of Qin Lei's miserable first day, and a rare smile appeared on his serious face, but it disappeared in a flash, and no one present noticed it.

After the steak was fried on both sides, Maxim put the steak into a rectangular iron plate, sprinkled some salt on it, and wrapped it in tin foil.

Then put the iron basin into the large oven and bake for half an hour.

Artyom went back to the house with the wine jug, and after a while he came out with the wine jug in one hand and a basket of vegetables in the other.

As usual, he poured a toast, but this time he poured three glasses: "I think you can drink enough, would you like to have another drink with us? Well, cheers for our health!"

"Of course!" Qin Feng took the initiative to pick up the wine glass, and took a sip with them.

After drinking two glasses of wine, Qin Feng felt a warm current rising from his stomach and flowing to his whole body. It didn't take long before he felt very hot.

He looked at the two big Siberian men wearing only short sleeves in such a cold weather, and he suddenly understood.

No wonder the men living in the north can drink, so it's all for keeping warm!

The Russian-style ribs also have a homemade sauce, which is boiled directly from some vegetables.

Onions and tomatoes are the main raw materials, which are fried in a pot to make a soup.

Add two carrots, garlic, pepper and boiled water, by the way, don't forget to add some homemade wine.

At this time, the beef ribs had already been grilled. Artyom went over and took out the iron pan and put it on the table, tore off the tin foil and smelled it: "Mmm~ this meat is really delicious!"

Then Maxim came over, poured the cooked rib sauce on the ribs, continued to wrap them in tin foil, and then put them in the oven to continue roasting.

While waiting, Maxim ate a carrot, and Artyom chopped some parsley.

Qin Feng was quite surprised, he didn't expect their barbecue to add coriander.

When the iron plate is taken out this time, the beef on the beef ribs has been roasted very soft, and a meal of local Russian-style grilled beef ribs is complete.

Maxim's wife took out the plates and set them up, as well as knives and forks and a staple food that was a bit like XJ's naan.

Artyom used a fork to divide the meat among everyone's plates, Maxim tore open the naan, and everyone shared a little.

Qin Feng looked at the beef with great interest, and wanted to taste it first, but Artyom, who divided the beef, poured him another full glass of wine.

"Cheers to our friendship!"

Qin Feng: "."
