Chapter 222 Who is it?
The day they chose for the trip was very good. The sea was calm and the wind was gentle at the beach. When it was dawn, Lu Xiaoxiao even saw the sunrise.
The egg yolk-like sun slowly rose from the sea. It was too far away to be seen clearly, but there was a new warmth in the haziness. The light sparkled on the sea, and it was as beautiful as a magnificent painting.
No wonder so many people look forward to watching the sunrise. She also likes the feeling of openness and healing that this can bring to people’s hearts.
The sky gradually brightened, and when she came back to her senses from the beautiful scenery, Yuchuan had already set up the tent.
The tent was built in the shade of the stone wall, supported by wooden sticks. It was a bit low, but it was enough for sitting on the ground.
Lu Xiaoxiao walked over. He had just put the animal skins on the cushion and was ready to catch seafood first. Yuchuan pointed to the cushion and said, "Xiaoxiao, sit here and play. I'll go catch fish and shrimp."
"I want to go too." Lu Xiaoxiao shook her head.
Yuchuan handed her a small basket, and each of them took half a can of salt, and they repeated the actions of going to the sea a few days ago.
The main ingredients prepared today are: oysters, mussels, clams, crabs and abalone. You may also get a small amount of conch, scallop shells, octopus, sea fish or others. What to eat for today's barbecue depends entirely on luck.
There is nothing to choose from when it comes to meat. There are pork, beef and other meats with unique flavors. After adding seasonings, they all taste equally good in Lu Xiaoxiao's mouth, except that they don't have the mutton smell that lamb has.
Lu Xiaoxiao was lucky enough to see several unknown shells on the beach, including red and white scallops. She picked them all up and waited for Yuchuan to check whether they were poisonous before using them.
The shells come in a variety of colors and look very dangerous, just like mushrooms. Lu Xiaoxiao looked at the purple and blue ones for a long time, but decided to pick them all up.
When living creatures saw some long-legged insects or small spiders, Lu Xiaoxiao ran very fast, for fear that the creatures would jump onto her.
After a while, Yuchuan came to her with his harvest. They had brought some dried meat to fill their stomachs before setting off. Now they could cook a pot of seafood porridge as a base and prepare to start a sweet date for the day.
Yuchuan built a circle with stones, one for barbecue and the other for making soup.
Barbecuing is mostly done over open flames, as the beastmen do not yet have the concept of what "healthy eating" is good for the body. After Lu Xiaoxiao has the body of an indigenous person, she also follows the local customs, except that the temperature can be a little scorching when the flames are too high.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoxiao's rest area was far away from the stove, so she could choose to work or be lazy nearby. Yuchuan divided the fresh water into two places and covered them with leaves to prevent too much water from being lost.
Yuchuan also found a stone slab to cut vegetables and garlic. The vegetables were rinsed with water before being used, which saved some water. Lu Xiaoxiao watched him work with a faint smile on her face.
It is said that working boys are the most handsome. After Yuchuan became her partner, she seemed to feel that Yuchuan seemed to have matured a lot, and he had become an older man from a tall boy.
The slightly pungent smell of the minced garlic spread far away. Lu Xiaoxiao took the initiative to help and skewered the meat nearby.
It took an hour to complete the preparatory work. During the process, Yuchuan went out to catch two sea fish and had a great harvest.
You won’t believe it, you won’t believe it, he actually caught a huge lobster as long as his arm in the shallow water, which shocked Lu Xiaoxiao so much that she couldn’t close her mouth.
According to the few guides she had about life at the seaside, large lobsters should not be caught in shallow water. He was really lucky.
"This should be delicious." Yuchuan grabbed the lobster. The lobster's butt kept bending and flapping, and its big claws danced hard, trying to break free from the clutches that were pinching it.
This lobster is probably an Australian lobster, and its color is bluish. Lu Xiaoxiao stared at the fat girl's buttocks. She exclaimed, "This is so big."
Everything can be mashed with garlic or steamed, and Lu Xiaoxiao decisively chose both.
With her previous salary level, it was still a stretch for her to have a high-end seafood meal. She was not the kind of person who spent a lot of money. She had never eaten anything like baked lobster with cheese or lobster sashimi. She was not used to eating raw seafood, but steamed seafood was okay, right?
Whether the ingredients are good or not, you can enjoy the delicious taste with the simplest cooking method~~~
"But what should I do with this?" Lu Xiaoxiao only knows how to eat it and doesn't know how to process it in advance.
Yuchuan thought for a moment, then slapped the shrimp to death. Then he took it away and did something to the side. He poked it with a branch and made some rustling sounds. Then, a series of "crackling" sounds were heard, and only a crystal clear butt wrapped in a shell was left of the shrimp.
It can be seen that Yuchuan only intends to eat the meat here. This rich man's action silenced Lu Xiaoxiao. She quickly picked up the lobster head. The part with the claws may contain meat and roe, and there is also some in its claws. Don't waste high-end seafood.
Yuchuan saw Lu Xiaoxiao use a bone knife to cut the part with the legs into two halves. The white meat on the other side was yellow and crisp. He sighed and touched his head, wondering if he had thrown it in the wrong place.
"Make a grill, and then serve with minced garlic~" More food, more food! Lu Xiaoxiao said expectantly.
"it is good."
Yuchuan stuffed a handful of fruit and dried meat into her hands and asked her to sit beside him and eat. The sea breeze was blowing and it was not yet the hottest. Lu Xiaoxiao nibbled on two fruits that looked like crabapples, sat on the animal skin, and buried her feet in the sand. The warm feeling and the touch of the sand were very healing.
Yuchuan quickly prepared the rack, placed the opened oysters on it, and started the first pot of barbecue at Master Yu’s stall. The white and tender oysters lay in their shells, ready to take on their own challenge.
Whether it tastes good or not depends entirely on the chef's touch.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked into the distance. The ocean's waves were gentle and the huge water surface looked very clear. There were coconut trees next to them, but unfortunately there were no coconuts hanging on them.
The addition of minced garlic gave the taste of the fireworks a spicy flavor. Lu Xiaoxiao turned her head and Yuchuan just handed her one. Her eyes lit up and she immediately blew on it and showed off one.
Good~delicious~
So delicious and spicy~
"We'll grill these shells later." Seeing those colorful shells, Yuchuan needed some time to identify them. He grilled the clams as well, not forgetting to flip the big lobsters' butts. "Xiaoxiao, drink more water. I brought enough water."
"Know it."
A salty sea breeze blew over, bringing with it the aroma of garlic, and the taste of chopped green onions also added a touch of flavor. She loved this leisurely time so much.
"The porridge is ready, Xiaoxiao, you drink first." Yuchuan served a bowl of porridge, which was full of ingredients.
It was so delicious that Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but drink a bowl of it. She lay down contentedly, but was picked up by Yuchuan: "Don't lie down right after you finish eating."
“Okay, okay.” Lu Xiaoxiao could only sit down cross-legged. Suddenly, she saw a lobster passing by on the beach! ! ! !
She was so shocked that she was stunned: "Yuchuan, there is a lobster there!"
Yuchuan turned his head and saw a lobster about the same size as the one they were grilling walking on the beach. The place where he was squatting just now happened to be a blind spot, so he didn't see it at first.
Looking around, Yuchuan was not familiar with the habits of this thing, and did not find anything unusual, so he stood up and said, "Xiaoxiao, I'll go grab it and roast it for you."
"Hmm~" Lu Xiaoxiao felt something was strange, but she didn't find what was strange. Her eyes were focused on the lobster, afraid that it would run away.
Yuchuan then trotted over, grabbed the lobster and chopped it up to eat.
At this moment, a pair of hands covered with sand sneaked onto the grill. He was burned, opened his palms wide, and then stole two oysters. He also did not forget to "steal" and put two fresh ones back.
Lu Xiaoxiao's attention was all over there, so she didn't see this funny scene at all. Until Yuchuan came back, she didn't notice anything wrong.
Yuchuan held up the lobster and said, "We'll eat it later."
This one on the grill is not cooked yet, you have to eat it fresh.
"Hmm~ Hey, why don't these two have garlic sauce?" Lu Xiaoxiao hurriedly added soul sauce, but inadvertently covered up the smell of the stranger.
Yuchuan took a look and felt that something was wrong. He frowned and stared at the two oysters that were obviously two sizes larger, and fell into deep thought.
