Chapter 368 What is a thorny pot?
When I arrived at the village chief's house, I saw a table full of food as soon as I entered the house.
The village chief's wife greeted them with a smile and asked them to take a seat.
"They are just home-cooked dishes, please don't be disgusted!"
Sister Chunyan smiled and responded.
"That's great. You're so polite."
Zhou Yue knew in her heart that in those days, many places were suffering from food shortages and famine. Looking at the situation, the conditions of the village chief's family were indeed quite good.
There were several dishes on the table, the most eye-catching of which was the big pot of steamed egg.
Zhou Yue thought to herself, it seems that the villagers need to come up with some ways to make money so that life can become more and more prosperous.
After all, eggs were quite precious in that era, and they rarely had access to steamed eggs in the base.
The village chief's eldest daughter enthusiastically took a spoon, scooped steamed eggs into their bowls, and said with a smile.
"Sister, try the steamed eggs I make. They taste different from other places!"
Zhou Yue responded with a smile, "Really? Then I have to try it."
Zhou Yue had eaten steamed eggs countless times since she was a child, but when she put this steamed egg in her mouth, the taste still amazed her.
After eating the steamed egg, his younger brother Zhou Xing's eyes widened and he asked curiously.
"Wow! This steamed egg is so delicious! How is it made?"
The village chief's wife smiled and said to her eldest daughter.
"This is a method my girl came up with. Pick out the yolk from the pot, mix it with eggs, and steam it."
When Zhou Yue heard the word "刺锅子", she frowned and thought for a long time. She really didn't know what it was, so she asked the system quietly.
[Tongzi, what is a thorny pot? ]
[Sister Yueyue, it’s sea urchin! It’s another name for sea urchin! ]
Zhou Yue suddenly realized. No wonder she felt the taste was so familiar. It turned out that sea urchin was added to the eggs!
No wonder the steamed eggs are so fresh and tender, and taste so good.
When Sister Chunyan heard this, she was surprised.
"We didn't know that steaming eggs in a thorny pot could be so delicious!"
Zhou Xing was full of confusion and asked, scratching his head.
"What is a thorn pot? I have never heard of it."
At this time, the village chief's second daughter got down from the dining table, ran into the kitchen in a hurry, and after a while, she brought out something.
When she took this thing, she wrapped it in a towel. When she opened the towel, she saw that it was a purple-black sea urchin.
The sea urchin has many long and sharp spines on its surface, and it looks like a small thorny landmine.
When my younger brother Zhou Xing saw this thing, he thought it was very novel.
"Is this also from the sea? How come I have never seen it before?"
It was normal that my younger brother Zhou Xing didn’t see any sea urchins. After all, these sea urchins are usually hidden on the seabed and only experienced fishermen can risk diving to catch them.
There are rules in the base. In order to ensure everyone's safety, diving without permission is strictly prohibited.
The seafood we harvest on weekdays is either caught by fishing boats on the sea or picked up at the beach during low tide.
As for the sea urchins that grow on the seabed, no one has ever tried to catch them and eat them.
Sister Chunyan looked at the sea urchin and said thoughtfully.
"No one in our village eats this prickly rib. It looks prickly, but I didn't expect it to be so delicious when added to steamed eggs!"
