Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 428 Superb Foie Gras
Zhao Lei first selected a batch of half-sized Langde geese from the gourd space, and started feeding experiments.

Some of the geese were fed with the grass that Zhao Lei cut from the gourd space, and the others were fed with ordinary feed as a control group in the feeding experiment.

Speaking of which, geese are herbivorous poultry, and the grass in the gourd space is definitely not ordinary. Zhao Lei thinks that these Langde geese should be fattened quickly.

These Langde geese have just come to the outside world from the calabash space, and they seem a little uncomfortable.They all squatted in the yard of Zhao Lei's house, looking sluggish.

However, Zhao Lei is not worried about this. The same situation will happen when the newly hatched pheasant is taken out of the gourd space before, and it will return to normal after a while.

This was exactly the case, and it didn't take long for the Lande goose to return to normal and began to look for food in the yard.So Zhao Lei fed the prepared food to the two batches of geese separately, intending to feed them for a while to see if there were any changes.

Apart from the difference in the food they ate, the living conditions of the two batches of geese were the same.They drink ordinary tap water, and are usually in two adjacent cages. Zhao Lei tries to be exactly the same.

Zhao Lei originally thought that this breeding experiment would take at least a few months to produce results.However, the actual situation was far beyond his expectation, and within ten days, there was a clear difference between the two batches of geese.

The geese that ate grass grew significantly faster, and after just over a week, they were already two circles larger than the geese that ate feed.Moreover, the geese that ate grass had a stronger appetite and significantly stronger vitality. In any respect, the situation was better than that of geese that ate feed.

The fattening issue that Zhao Lei is most concerned about has also achieved good results.The Lande geese that eat grass not only grow fast, but also grow meat at an amazing rate.Each one is fat and strong, and a few particularly fat geese even struggle to walk, and can only move their fat bodies staggeringly, just like this, they have to compete with the same kind for grass to eat.

Zhao Lei slaughtered a few fat geese at random, and found that the foie gras of those that ate green grass were particularly large, almost three times that of the geese in the control group.The whole piece of foie gras is bigger than his two fists, and it looks very fat to people.

Although from Zhao Lei's point of view, this can definitely be called the best foie gras.However, his knowledge of this ingredient was limited to tasting it once with Jessica when he went to Paris last time.So whether this foie gras is good or not, Zhao Lei dare not make a conclusion.

But it doesn't matter if Zhao Lei doesn't understand foie gras, as long as someone understands it.Pierre is both a Frenchman and a chef of Western cuisine, so you can be sure about this kind of thing.So Zhao Lei took the Langde goose and foie gras that he had just killed, and went directly to the Red River Bank Western Restaurant to find Pierre.

It has been a while since the Frenchman came back from Paris. After seeing Zhao Lei, he greeted him happily and opened his arms out of habit to give him a hug.

Of course Zhao Lei would not let Pierre succeed, before the Frenchman could react, he had already stuffed a thermal bag into his arms.

Pierre hugged the thermal bag subconsciously, and asked Zhao Lei inexplicably, "What's in it?"

Zhao Lei shrugged and said, "You'll know if you open it and have a look."

The Frenchman hurriedly opened the insulation bag, and suddenly realized: "It's a goose. Looking at the shape and head shape, it should be a Lande goose!"

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "As expected of a chef, you have a good eye!"

Pierre asked Zhao Lei in surprise: "Could it be that the breeding geese you bought last time have already started breeding, and the goslings are already this big?"

Zhao Lei nodded and said, "Congratulations, you got the answer right!"

"That's not right!" However, the Frenchman shook his head repeatedly and said, "How long has it been? How did the goose grow so big? It's unscientific!"

Zhao Lei frowned and said, "You don't understand anything, it's because I raised them in the most scientific way that these geese can grow so fast!"

With the facts in front of him, Pierre couldn't refute. He just shook his head and said, "It's amazing, it's really amazing!"

Zhao Lei said: "Don't be emotional, let's see how the quality of the foie gras is!"

Only then did Pierre realize that there was foie gras under the ice pack, he quickly took out the foie gras, weighed it, and sighed in surprise: "This piece of foie gras is not small, such a large size is rare. .”

While admiring the Frenchman, he cut the foie gras in the middle with a knife and explained to Zhao Lei: "Foie gras is not only judged by its size, but also by whether it is plump enough and the texture is delicate enough. Only when it meets these requirements , is truly the best foie gras.”

While speaking, Pierre had already cut the foie gras open, carefully observed the situation at the incision, nodded in satisfaction and said: "It does look very good, but you will not know until you taste it!"

While talking, Pierre quickly cut the foie gras into slices and fried them in butter.A tempting aroma soon emerged from the pot, causing Pierre to nod his head, becoming more and more satisfied with the foie gras.

Although Zhao Lei didn't like goose meat very much, the smell of foie gras was very special, which made him feel his appetite increased, so he swallowed subconsciously.

The first piece of foie gras was cooked soon, Pierre was not polite to Zhao Lei, he couldn't wait to cut a small piece and put it in his mouth.Although the Frenchman gasped from the heat, he gave Zhao Lei a thumbs up with an intoxicated expression on his face.

"This foie gras is so delicious!" After finally swallowing the foie gras, Pierre said to Zhao Lei contentedly: "This foie gras is fat but not greasy, and it melts in your mouth. It is not only extremely delicate in texture, but also very tasty. Delicious, I have been a chef for so many years, and this is the first time I have eaten such a good foie gras! Let me tell you this, it is second to none!"

"That's second to none, really uneducated!" Zhao Lei couldn't help correcting the Frenchman's wrong wording, and then smiled triumphantly: "The ingredients produced by Xianhu Company are all top-quality, and this foie gras is no exception, right?"

"Absolutely no exception, this foie gras is indeed the best!" Pierre nodded repeatedly and asked, "When will the market be available in large quantities?"

Zhao Lei pondered and said, "The goose farm will be completed this month. As for the large supply market... it will take two or three months after all."

Pierre immediately said: "I don't ask too much, and then give me five pieces of foie gras and ten fat geese every week. The price is up to you!"

Considering the size of the goose farm, Pierre's request was really not high, so Zhao Lei readily agreed.Then he skilfully avoided the Frenchman's delighted embrace and hurried back to the village.

Now that it has been proved that the grass in the gourd space can indeed fatten the Langde geese and raise the best fat foie gras, Zhao Lei immediately discussed with the village, and rented a few acres of wasteland by the river for planting grass.
