Beginning Backpack [Farming]

The two raised nearly half of the baskets of snails in clay buckets in batches, and washed the fresh berries they had just collected. Some of them were eaten directly, and the other part was dried on bamboo rafts, and they planned to make them into dried fruits.

Shen Huaijin invited Qi and other orcs who went to the market together to have dinner on the other side of the stream one day in advance.

The recipes he prepared for this banquet are fish soup, roasted whole "sheep", fried prawns in oil, fried snails and several side dishes.

There are already snails just touched, multi-haired animals waiting to be slaughtered, and fish that can be seen everywhere in the stream. Shen Huaijin and Li have to go to the big river outside the valley to catch shrimps and crabs tonight.

Although the entire Linshan Plain is not very peaceful now, Dahe is still within the scope of the tribal hunting area, and there are usually no wild animals, which is why Li dared to bring Shen Huaijin out alone.

That night, as soon as it got dark, Shen Huaijin couldn't wait to grab the flashlight and follow Li out.

There are no lights in the wild, but fortunately, the stars and the moon are shining, and the road is not difficult to walk.

Crabs are only caught two or three times a year at most, Shen Huaijin is too lazy to make crab cages, and directly uses lights to catch crabs.

This method is simple and very effective.Because crabs like bright light at night, as long as the light source is placed on the shore, the crabs will crawl over following the light, so it is very easy to catch one by one.

Shen Huaijin picked an area with many crab holes, set up a flashlight with a branch, and turned on the switch to lure crabs.

In order to go back earlier, the two split up.Shen Huaijin watched the light, while Li went to fetch the shrimp from the shrimp pot.

There are a lot of crabs in the big river, and almost every two minutes, a big crab comes ashore and follows the light.

Shen Huaijin had sharp eyes and quick hands, and grabbed one after another.

When Li finished picking all the shrimps, he had already caught fifteen or six crabs.But this was far from enough. They squatted in place and caught another forty or fifty before giving up.

There are also quite a few shrimps caught, and there are harvests in more than a dozen shrimp pots. This night can be said to be full of harvests.

In order to prevent these river fish from dying due to lack of water, they hurried back to the tribe and raised shrimps and crabs. It shouldn't be a problem to survive for a while.

Although the night was getting dark, Shen Huaijin still couldn't stop, he took out the floor lamp in the room, and together with Li, he picked two of the most tender hairy beasts from the animal pen, and slaughtered them neatly.

The two scalded the animal's body with boiling water, and took off the animal hair while it was hot, and then piled it aside for Shen Huaijin to collect later.

The viscera of the hairy beast had been cleaned out, and Shen Huaijin used a bone knife to cut some small openings in the thick flesh of its body.

Then, he put scallions, ginger slices, licorice and chili powder into the belly of the hairy beast, and rubbed the body and knife edge with fish sauce and seasoning.

It is best marinated in this way overnight.

After working all night, Shen Huaijin didn't get up early the next day, so he got busy when he got up together. He had to prepare for today's banquet.

In the market team, Shu and Qi have the closest relationship with them, so they also come to help early.

Shen Huaijin was also polite, and asked two orcs to help him set up two temporary grills, and at noon, he put the extremely delicious hairy beasts marinated all night on the grills for roasting.

They didn't have iron picks, so they inserted sharpened wooden sticks into the animal's body to fix it. Shu and Qi were respectively in charge of a hairy animal. According to Shen Huaijin's instructions, they flipped the grill and occasionally smeared some Shen Huaijin's homemade seasoning on it.

In the afternoon, Li was in charge of going out to hunt in the valley. Fortunately, Shen Huaijin was always quick at work and everything was orderly.

Deep-fried prawns are most exciting when they are hot, so Shen Huaijin saved this dish for last.

He first forked a few fish in the stream, cut them open and removed the scales. After seeing that the time was almost up, he fried them on a slate.

Gradually, the invited orcs also came over with gifts.After such a long time of contact, Shen Huaijin has already become one with everyone, and happily greeted them to sit down upon seeing this.

It’s just that everyone doesn’t like to be idle, and when they arrive, they look for work by themselves. Seeing that a large number of unprocessed snails are put aside, the orcs who have eaten fried snails naturally know that snails need to be chopped. The orcs squatted together, chopping snail tails neatly, and from time to time, the young ones would whisper to each other for not chopping well enough.

The scene was a little amusing.

Seeing this, Shen Huaijin smiled gratifiedly, stretched his waist, and seeing that the time was almost up, he fetched the prawns that had been raised overnight, and saw that they were in good spirits, bouncing one after another as soon as they came out of the water.

Just as he was going to the shrimp line, Li led the team back to the valley.He was worried that Shen Huaijin was working hard alone, and couldn't wait for the food to be distributed, so he hurried to the other side of the stream to take over Shen Huaijin's job.

Shen Huaijin was naturally happy and relaxed.

Most of the snails had already been chopped, and it happened that so many snails had to be fried in batches, so Shen Huaijin took some of them and started frying the snails.

As soon as the chili was added, an unbearable overbearing aroma overflowed when it was stir-fried. The orcs around swallowed their saliva while working, and the speed of their hands was much faster for a while, and they only hoped to eat this delicious meal quickly .

At the same time, the roasted whole lamb is getting better. The hairy animal that has been turned over by Shu and Qi for half an afternoon has overflowed with a lot of fat, and the seasoned skin is roasted red, yellow and crispy.

The prawns were marinated for a while after the shrimp line was taken out.After all the snails were fried, Shen Huaijin kept adding ginger and garlic while the slate was still hot. After frying until fragrant, he poured in prawns for stir-fry.

The white prawn body quickly turns red under high temperature, and with the addition of seasoning, a different and attractive aroma bursts out on the stone plate again.

The few orcs had already lost their work, no matter how old or young they were, they were all standing by Shen Huaijin's side, looking eagerly at the delicious food on the stone slab.

As soon as the deep-fried prawns came out, everyone was very excited, especially the young orc, who inhaled the aroma and closed his eyes intoxicated, which made Shu and Qi, who was grilling meat beside him, laugh out loud.

Because the stone table couldn't fit so many orcs, Shen Huaijin asked everyone to borrow some wooden pier from the other side of the stream, and then they could just sit around the campfire and have a meal.

While everyone was moving the wooden pier, Shen Huaijin fried a few plates of wild bird eggs and green leafy vegetables, served with fresh purple berries and thorns, and a feast was completed.

At this time, the roasting of the hairy beast is coming to an end, and it is the time when the color is yellow-red, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Shen Huaijin turned off the barbecue fire and started another bonfire.After they put fish soup, fried prawns in oil, fried snails in spicy sauce and other dishes on the wooden pier beside the campfire, everyone sat around with bowls and chopsticks.

Shen Huaijin cut the animal meat while it was hot, peeled off the golden puff pastry and sliced ​​it into strips, and cut the juicy tender meat into slices, served with shallots, garlic and minced licorice, and if it was too greasy, it could be served with perilla leaves.

It was finally ready to be eaten. Everyone had waited for a long time, and now they couldn't wait to start it. The freshly cut animal meat was fragrant and hot, which made everyone applaud and feel pain.

Shen Huaijin also took the meat, served it with seasoning and perilla leaves, and stuffed it into his mouth.

The hairy beast is roasted just right, the skin feels crispy and salty, and the meat is plump but not greasy, with a unique flavor.

Shen Huaijin ate three big pieces before stopping, and put a few chopsticks of scrambled eggs into his mouth, feeling the tender and fragrant taste.

Beside the harmonious bonfire, the satisfied expression on Shen Huaijin's face was very conspicuous.Li, who was sitting by the side, was also relieved to see that he was acting uncharacteristically and had a big appetite.

"I like to eat hairy animals so much, I can eat them often in the future."

With food stuffed in her mouth, Shen Huaijin couldn't speak, she just looked at each other with a pair of clear eyes, then shook her head.

He swallowed the scrambled eggs before he said: "It's delicious, but it's troublesome to make. How can I eat it often? But if there are dinner parties in the tribe in the future, and there are many people to help, I can try this method again."

"We will hold a bond ceremony next water season, which is the season near the passage of the hairy beasts, and I will hunt a few more at that time."

"Cough cough." Shen Huaijin was a little startled, and coughed a few times embarrassedly, he turned his head and glanced sharply, only to see that the other party was calm and calm, as if explaining what to eat for breakfast.

"I'm going to get some dried peach blossoms to make tea." After speaking, Shen Huaijin hurriedly left her seat.

Looking sharply at his back, the green eyes under the melting firelight were stained with a bright smile.

No matter how delicious the barbecue is, it will inevitably get greasy if there is too much. At this time, it can be well relieved with a cup of fragrant peach blossom tea.

Everyone drank tea while eating meat, admiring Shen Huaijin's carefulness, but they didn't notice his red ears.

The dinner party didn't end until the evening when the stars and the moon were hanging high. Everyone was full and helped Shen Huaijin and Li clean up the dishes and leftovers before leaving one by one.

Shen Huaijin felt a little bit sleepy as she bid farewell to the last tree to leave.Dozens of crabs were being kept in the stream with rattan baskets at the moment, and they were quite energetic, so there was no need to worry, so the two of them washed up and tidied up, and then went to bed early to rest.

Just thinking about the crab, Shen Huaijin got up early the next day.These crabs are all prepared for making bald butter. Fortunately, bald butter is something he has made before, and he is even more familiar with it now.

After the dozens of fat crabs were cleaned, they were put into the cooker and steamed. Twenty crabs were placed at a time. After steaming, Shen Huaijin took out the crab roe and crab paste for later use.

There was not much animal oil left in the house, so Shen Huaijin took the fresh animal meat that was allocated last night, cut off the fat and cut it into cubes, and put it in a pot for boiling.

With the dispersal of the aroma of the oil, the color of the fatty meat became darker and the size became smaller and smaller. Shen Huaijin quickly fished out the oil residue, put in the onion and ginger and fried it until fragrant, and then took it out.

The animal oil was ready, so Shen Huaijin carefully poured the prepared crab roe and crab paste into it, and simmered it slowly over low heat while stirring. During this time, he added ginger juice, lemon juice and licorice powder to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor. .

Until the red crab oil is boiled out, it will be considered.

Shen Huaijin carefully poured it into the jar, and smiled with satisfaction when she saw a jar full of fragrant and shiny bald butter.

As for the remaining crabs, he didn't waste them either. He fried them with oil residue and made more than a dozen plates of spicy crabs, and sent them to the other side of the stream to share with everyone.

The crabs were cooked by Shen Huaijin until they were full of aroma. Under the spicy and delicious taste, the Dahe tribe started another day of hoarding cold food.

The author has something to say: There is only one word in this chapter, eat... (cover face)

About how much I love to eat snails, there is another very funny thing to share with you.I went to an interview once, and I had to write an application topic in the written test. I was thinking about going home during the holidays and asking my mother to cook something delicious. When my mind was pumped, I wrote the screw as a snail. HR probably suspected that I was an uneducated person. Little idiot qwq

I feel that there are fewer comments after I joined v, so I posted some embarrassing things to blow everyone out (I'm joking, everyone is happy to read the article)~
