Chapter 227: Pig Killing in Progress: Middle Section and Abdomen

After Kagawa finished processing the hind legs, he sent the records to Ouyang Yating and Liang Gong, who had regained some spirit. The two of them nervously held a hind leg each and began to restore the operation according to Kagawa's recorded images.

"If you can't guarantee that you can completely shave the meat off the bones, then it's okay to leave some, but be sure not to damage the bones!" Finally, Kagawa added: "Pork shanks are delicious, save some!"

what?
Hearing this, Ouyang Yating and Liang Gong almost lost their grip on the compressed laser cutters, and the employees and cadres of the holographic production escort ship also began to whisper.

Pig bones? Eating pig bones? They are so hard, can you eat them?
"Kagawa, can bones be eaten?" Qiu Manman asked the question first.

"The main thing to eat is the bone marrow inside. The texture of the bone marrow is similar to that of old tofu. It can be used for stir-frying, braising, and hot pot... well, it can be used to make soup and then dipped in chili oil." Kagawa wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was a close call. He almost said shabu-shabu hot pot.

"Were people in ancient times so hungry?" The students in Class 8 of Grade 1 looked at each other and asked the question again.

Mainly, in their perception, there are only a few edible parts of poultry, but Kagawa now not only wants to eat the pig's internal organs, but also says that basically only the pig bones that have been crushed into powder and used as animal feed can be eaten. This, this, this...

"What's there to be afraid of? As long as the pork doesn't smell fishy, ​​you can eat anything. Even the thing that was broken off when the pig was alive was used to strengthen the virility in ancient times—"

"Alright, alright, stop talking!" Qiu Manman quickly covered Xiangchuan's mouth, fearing that some fierce words would come out of her mouth again.

Now they are being watched by the entire first-year high school students and the cadres of the Fourth Production Escort Ship. If Kagawa says something incredible and it gets back to the school, then Class 8 of the first year high school will become the center of attention for this semester.

Although it is now.

After seeing Ouyang Yating and Liang Gong start to cut the meat with trepidation, Xiangchuan began to process the front leg part.

The treatment of the front legs is similar to that of the hind legs, but the meat of the front legs is not as visually impactful as that of the hind legs, and the treatment is not difficult. As long as the plum blossom meat at the shoulder and neck of the front legs is intact, it will be almost done. After Kagawa finished the demonstration, he handed the front legs to the squad leader Lu Daiqing and the nominal deputy squad leader Nancy to lead the team to handle.

Then comes the hardest part.

Kagawa sighed softly, returned to the operable hologram, and began to work on the middle meat and the pig's belly.

The most talked-about middle-cut meats in the 21st century are spare ribs, pork chops, tenderloin and streaky pork, which have an even distribution of fat and lean meat. However, this also makes it a bit tricky for a kitchen novice like Kagawa who has only been to the vegetable market a few times in his previous life and who, even when he went to the vegetable market, would tell the stall owner the name of the dish and ask him to help choose the meat.

She spread out the holographic image of the middle section of meat and opened three light screens in succession. After repeatedly confirming the steps and parts from the video, pictures, and text instructions, she carefully took the operating pen and started cutting.

Separate the large ribs, remove the ribs, take out the tenderloin, and divide the large ribs. In this process, the upper pork belly and the lower pork belly are separated. The upper pork belly can be ignored, but the lower pork belly has breasts, which need to be accurately removed before eating.

Kagawa stared at the video and pictures on the light screen until they were almost penetrated, and only then was he able to barely confirm that the holographic image of the lower five flowers in his hand had been processed.

Since the middle part of the meat contains the pork belly that Kagawa is obsessed with, he personally cuts the meat. Qiu Manman and Long Xiaoxian waited for Kagawa to separate the edible parts with glass containers. The reason why she misses the pork belly is not because she misses braised pork or braised pork, but because pork belly is a good ingredient for stir-frying.

Wearing new gloves, Kagawa touched the middle of the pig and almost drooled at the sight of the thick fat. The actual operation was indeed more difficult than the simulation. Kagawa blushed several times when cutting the ribs, and then when taking the tenderloin, he was afraid of cutting the fascia and was so choked that he couldn't breathe.

By the time he finished processing the middle section of meat, Kagawa's forehead was already covered in sweat.

Qiu Manman and Long Xiaoxian, who were waiting to receive the ingredients, were also stunned for a while when they saw her like this. In their impression, Xiangchuan always looked calm and composed when standing in front of the ingredients, and only had a tangled expression on his face when adjusting the heat and weighing the seasonings. But this was the first time they saw her struggling so hard.

"Manman, take these on the left to the cabinet, and the rest... wow!"

As Xiangchuan was gesturing and giving instructions, something hard suddenly hit her knees from behind. She lost her balance and fell backwards, ending up sitting on something soft. She looked at the thing under her blankly, and it was a suspended chair, which seemed to be the one Liang Gong had just sat on.

How come this thing is here? Xiangchuan looked around. Ouyang Yating and Liang Gong were still carefully processing the pig's hind legs. The viscera processing team and the front leg processing team were also working carefully. Then... her eyes swept across the operating table and met Ino's eyes as expected.

"Please sit down first. If you get tired, the processing of the pork for human consumption will have to be postponed. We will miss the return flight tomorrow morning. It will be a big trouble." Ino looked at her unhappily.

"..." Xiangchuan was about to open his mouth to say thank you, but when he heard this, the words of thanks got stuck in his throat.

Sometimes I can still understand Ouyang Yating and Nancy's urge to sew this guy's mouth shut. How could such a handsome mixed-race guy with brown hair and green eyes have a mouth?
Xiangchuan muttered to himself, turned back and continued to give instructions to Qiu Manman and Long Xiaoxian:
"Put the bones and meat on the left side into different containers according to my division. Don't use the fat on the right side, just throw it away."

Given the previous controversy over the pork hind leg bones, the two no longer had any doubts about Kagawa retaining the spareribs, which had more bones than meat. They obediently put on gloves and began to sort the pork into small glass containers.
-
Kagawa operated the suspended chair and came to the operable holographic image. Now there was only a whole pig's belly in front of her.

With the experience of dealing with the middle part of the pig, Kagawa was much more comfortable with the simulated operation this time.

The most important thing about the pig belly is to separate and process the ribs, and to divide the breast just like the middle part of the pig. However, it is much easier to process the ribs than the big chops, and there is cartilage like the soft ribs, which gives Kagawa some relief.

But even so, she still didn't feel comfortable leaving this job to other people. After resting for a while, she took Qiu Manman and Fu Chengkai to continue cutting the abdomen.

Although Kagawa was still very nervous during the actual operation this time, he was not as nervous as when he was handling the middle part of the pig, where he was not so nervous that his face turned red and he was even sweating profusely.

While processing the pig's abdomen, Kagawa also did not forget to clean out the lard in the pig's abdominal cavity. A major characteristic of castrated pigs is that they eat more and move less, so they store more fat in their bodies than ordinary pigs. Looking at the full pot of lard, Kagawa felt that the lard-fried vegetables and lard residue were waving to him.

Only Fu Chengkai, who was moving the container of lard to the shelf, looked at the white fat in front of him with his eyes blurred.

When Kagawa removed the last piece of soft breast from the pork belly, the much-watched processing of pork for human consumption came to an end.

The pig is finally killed.
