Carry an aquarium with you

Chapter 270 Eat a Sashimi and Make Some Raw Pickles
Holding a chopping knife, Qin Feng walked to a bamboo forest on the left side of the beach. Although the main goal was to bury fossils, a simple resting place still needed to be built.

It's hard to find an island suitable for rest in the open sea or even on the high seas.

Qin Feng chose this small island, naturally there is also a reason why it is suitable for relaxing on the island.

This small island is not very big, but the resources on the island are not bad.

It is not the first time for Qin Feng to come here. He has dug fossils on the island before and found a mango tree and a papaya tree.

There is also a bamboo forest that is not small in scale. Most of the bamboo is as thick as a small bowl, which is very suitable for building a small bamboo house for rest.

After Qin Feng came to the bamboo forest, he picked up the hatchet and cut it at a 45-degree angle from above to below. Only four or five times, a bamboo fell down in response.

He is not in a hurry to build a bamboo house. His task today is to cut enough bamboo for the bamboo house and move it to the beach.

Then Qin Feng continued to chop the second tree, but after the bamboo was cut down, a white thing was thrown flying in the bamboo tube.

He looked down, hehe, it turned out to be bamboo worms.

This is a special delicacy, the best in the insect world, and it is said that the taste is not worse than that of silkworm chrysalis.

Qin Feng has never eaten silkworm chrysalis, he has no idea about this special delicacy, and he doesn't know if there are any friends around him who like to eat it.

Looking at the fat and tender bamboo worms in front of him, he thought about it, and went back to get a box to pack it in, maybe some friends would like it!
For example, Lu Wenbo, a food blogger, may bite the bullet and eat this thing in order to make a video.

Collect all the bamboo worms in the bamboo and find that there are only about three or two.

Such a small amount of bamboo insect Lu Wenbo may not be enough to eat!
Qin Feng covered the box, and then wandered around in the bamboo forest, looking for bamboos that might contain bamboo insects.

But he didn't have any experience in this field. After looking around, he found that these bamboos were all similar, and he couldn't tell that there were bamboo insects in that bamboo at all.

Just when he gave up, a small hole at the bottom of a bamboo caught his attention.

He walked in and found that the small hole looked like a bug bite.

Is this how bamboo worms look for it?
Qin Feng immediately raised the hatchet and cut it down. After cutting down the bamboo, he found that some black liquid flowed out of it, but there was no obvious smell.

But there were no bamboo insects in it, which made him puzzled again. The liquid didn't look like the water preserved by bamboo.

Similarly, Qin Feng didn't taste the liquid like he did in some movies.

Just as he got up, he made another discovery.

It turned out that there was also a small hole inside the bamboo he cut down.

Even Qin Feng saw a touch of white flowers, obviously this is the figure of the bamboo worm.

He suddenly realized that the bamboo worms were on it.

Taking the box he brought over, Qin Feng cut a gap with a hatchet, and there were densely packed fat and tender bamboo worms inside.

After putting these bamboo worms into the box, he had a guess in his mind.

I got up and went back to the first bamboo where I found the bamboo worm, squatted down and looked at the tail of the bamboo that was still in the ground.

Sure enough, he also found a type of small hole on it, and after cutting it off, there was also a blackish liquid inside.

Qin Feng suddenly rejoiced, fortunately he was not curious to taste the liquid, so he knew it was the urine excreted by bamboo worms.
Next, it is very convenient for Qin Feng to collect bamboo insects.

Anyway, he needs bamboo to build a bamboo house, so he might as well find these bamboos with bamboo insects.

I cut down a lot of bamboo, and collected almost two catties of bamboo worms.

The original box couldn't hold it, so Qin Feng directly used a small box to pack it.

This bamboo worm doesn't weigh too much, it looks like a small pot full of two catties, with a white body and a small black mouth, Qin Feng's scalp feels numb when he looks at it.

This bug, no matter how good-looking it is, if there are too many of them gathered together, it will still be annoying.

The sun was about to set, so Qin Feng took the bamboo worms back to the boat to eat and rest, and he had to continue tomorrow.

But back on the boat, he didn't take a shower right away.

Instead, he took out all the fishing rods and installed them on the side of the boat, and then hung up fake baits and threw them into the water to fish as he pleased.

However, in order to have a better fishing effect, Qin Feng still took out some cheap sea fish from the aquarium, chopped them up and threw them into the water.

After finishing all this, he put the bamboo worms into the kitchen and went to the bathroom to take a shower and change clothes.

As for the fishing rods on the deck, as long as there are hooked fish, he can put them directly into the aquarium.

Keep the valuable ones and throw away the worthless ones.

Through his continuous release of endangered marine life over the past few years, some of the marine life has been out of the list of endangered animals.

Like bigeye tuna.
International marine experts expressed their disbelief, wondering why there are so many bigeye tunas suddenly appearing. According to their investigation, this kind of tuna has already entered the near-threatened level.

As a result, there are now more than yellowfin tuna. If the taste of bigeye tuna is indeed the best besides bluefin tuna, otherwise its price will drop to almost the same as yellowfin tuna.

But in the past few years, fishermen in coastal countries in the western Pacific have made a lot of money because of the sudden increase in bigeye tuna.

Especially in Huaxia, the largest range of activity of bigeye tuna has been found in the Xisha area of ​​the South China Sea, followed by the East China Sea,

The main reason is that Qin Feng released a large number of bigeye tuna into the South China Sea when he released them.

The sudden increase in the number of bluefin tuna surprised experts even more than that of bigeye tuna.

However, bluefin tuna is more abundant nationwide, unlike bigeye tuna that specifically appears in Huaxia waters, so the experts did not target Huaxia waters.

This is because after Qin Feng learned about the situation of the bigeye tuna, he deliberately went to several places to release the bluefin tuna.

Otherwise, if they are all in Huaxia, it will inevitably make people wonder whether Huaxia has done something, but the number of tuna has increased significantly.

In fact, Qin Feng does not need to fish when he goes out to sea now. Most of the marine life in the world has been bred in his aquarium, and the specialty seafood in various regions is also basically available.

But he is still fishing now, mainly because there are two male yellow-lipped fish in the breeding space.

As a characteristic fish species in the East China Sea, the yellow-lipped fish is almost extinct, and it is too difficult to come across.

It is even rarer than the wild Chinese sturgeon. At least Qin Feng has secretly caught a few Chinese sturgeons in the past few years, and many of them have multiplied so far.

But in order to control the quantity and prevent the experts from making a fuss, he did not release them all at once as before, but secretly released some if they passed the Yangtze River.

He just read the news this year. Experts said that the water quality of the Yangtze River has improved. Not only has the finless porpoise come back, but the number of wild Chinese sturgeon has also increased several times, and now it has reached more than 300.

Of course, whether it is finless porpoise or Chinese sturgeon, it is actually the result of Qin Feng's secret operations.

But no matter what the situation is, in the current breeding space, apart from races such as baleen whales that reproduce in large numbers and for a particularly long time, there are also species that he cannot release at one time. Other endangered creatures that reproduce quickly have already completed their tasks.

At present, the time limit for the reproduction function of the aquarium has reached 23 years, which is enough.

The only thing Qin Feng cares about now is to catch a female yellow lip fish.

Before, he thought that the yellow lip fish had to be caught off the coast of the East China Sea, and the first one he caught was accidentally off the coast.

As a result, he accidentally caught one on the high seas. Although he didn't know what happened, as long as he went out to sea, he would be right to just fish.

By the way, he also collects some species that are not in the aquarium. There are really too many fish in the ocean. Even if he has been fishing for several years, there are still many fish that he has not caught.

After taking a shower, Qin Feng came to the kitchen and started cooking.

First come to the sink to drain the water, turn off the faucet when the water level reaches half, and at the same time, with a heartbeat, a calamari about [-] centimeters in size appears in the sink.

Appearing in a strange place suddenly, the squid spit out ink in fright.

When it stopped, Qin Feng teased it with chopsticks, and soon, the squid sprayed clean the ink in its body.

Qin Feng turned on the faucet, picked up the calamari and washed it clean, while draining the ink from the sink.

Then he took the knife, cut off two of the squid's extra-long tentacles, then grabbed its mouth and pulled it, tearing the whole mouth off, and throwing it away.

Continue to pick up the knife and make a stroke on its stomach, and you can remove all the head and internal organs of the calamari with your hands.

But it is said to be a thief, but it is actually edible.

Rinse it with water, cut off the tail and throw it away, and you can clearly see that there is a yellow ointment inside the calamari.

In fact, this is the seed of calamari, which tastes very delicious.

Cut the calamari paste into pieces and put them on a plate, leaving only its head and tentacles.

Qin Feng deliberately put its head down on the side, and as he expected, the squid was still crawling with its tentacles and preparing to escape, which looked quite interesting.

Calamari is actually a kind of squid. Its body is all meat, and it is also the most delicious part.

However, the skin surface of calamari has a slight toxin, so its outer skin must be peeled off before it can be eaten.

Qin Feng's family also likes to eat calamari, and sometimes he will specially prepare squid on a plate, but the ingredients are calamari that is much more expensive than ordinary squid.

Usually, if you slaughter a lot, it will be easy to deal with it. Practice makes perfect. After peeling off the skin, wash it, and then cut off the tentacles. It doesn't take much time to slaughter a calamari.

Because this squid was taken out of the aquarium, it was also bred in the aquarium, so there is nothing dirty on it, and there is no possibility of parasites.

So Qin Feng also cut its body into strips, and ate calamari sashimi tonight.

Qin Feng was not keen on eating sashimi at first, he always felt that sashimi was not clean, and it was okay to eat it once in a while.

But since he knew that the creatures in the aquarium are very clean, and the seafood inside will taste sweeter than outside, so he gradually fell in love with sashimi.

Eating sashimi is definitely a pleasure because of its truly top-notch delicacy.

After eating a serving of sashimi, Qin Feng was still a little bit unsatisfied. He has a big appetite, and a serving of sashimi can't be enough.

But after the sashimi was finished, the rice on the other side was also cooked, so he fried a hot and sour cabbage to fill his stomach.

But today's delicious sashimi rarely opened up his taste buds, making him want to eat tomorrow.

But there are so many seafood in his aquarium, Qin Feng thinks that maybe he can change to a way of eating that he doesn't usually eat, that is raw pickling.

There are quite a lot of places where seafood is eaten raw, but Shantou, which Qin Feng knows, is more famous. There is also a street there that specializes in eating raw seafood.

"Hey! Maybe I can invite a master to come to the cafeteria to make raw pickles!"

Thinking of raw pickles, Qin Feng suddenly thought that his cafeteria could also serve raw pickled dishes.

There is no need for expensive ingredients for raw pickling. Pippi shrimp, prawns and swimming crabs are enough.

Raw pickling requires fresh ingredients, which is a difficult task for some cafeterias. The price of fresh seafood is much more expensive than frozen seafood, and the cost is too high.

But for Qin Feng, there is no problem at all. The most important thing he lacks is fresh seafood. The big deal is that the supply of raw pickled fish will be stopped during the fishing ban.

But these are things for the future, he himself wants to make a meal to relieve his greed.

So he entered the aquarium and began to search for the ingredients he wanted to pickle raw, one, of course, was shrimp.

Qin Feng picked two [-]-centimeter Red Devil Shrimp and Langoustine Shrimp, and these four shrimps were more than others in a plate.

There are also two Pippi shrimps with big arms, and the pickled Pippi shrimps are also delicious.

For crabs, choose the red cream female crab, and the species is safflower crab.After all, safflower crab tastes sweeter than ordinary swimming crabs, and it must taste better when marinated raw.

Suddenly, a blue crab that had just shed its shell came into his sight. The whole body of this kind of blue crab that had shed its shell was soft. This one was still a female crab, which seemed to be a good target for pickling, so he also took it out.

There are actually a lot of ingredients for raw pickling, such as lobster, pipa shrimp, various shells, and even the calamari we ate just now.

But Qin Feng can't eat that much tomorrow alone, so these few things are enough.

There are many videos of eating raw pickles on the Internet, but few of them are as extravagant as him.

Then Qin Feng began to process the ingredients. For shrimp, the tendons of the shrimp had to be picked, and the whiskers and feet had to be cut off.

Pippi shrimp has to cut off the thorns around the head, tail and body, so as not to sting the mouth when eating.

Put the shrimps in a large bowl and soak them in white vinegar or white wine for half an hour. Qin Feng uses white vinegar.

For the crabs, he soaked them in white wine directly. If he eats them at that time, it will probably smell a little bit of wine. Let's see if the two taste better.

Others use these two to sterilize and remove fishy smell by the way, while Qin Feng enhances the flavor.

Then there are accessories, such as minced garlic, spicy millet, etc., plus various seasonings.

Qin Feng deliberately poured some cold boiled water to dilute the taste. It is usually enough to pickle raw for four hours, but today is already evening, and if you want to eat it, you will have to eat it at noon or even at night tomorrow.

He was afraid that the taste would be too strong if left for so long, so he diluted it.

Once done, put it in the refrigerator to refrigerate and eat it tomorrow.
