Chapter 78 Start Cooking Dark Cuisine

After Naruto and his party returned, Yang Ming took the cloth bag from their hands and entered the kitchen.

Due to Yang Ming's previous request, the cicadas in the cloth bag were all alive, moving restlessly inside, and the whole cloth bag seemed to have many raised spots shaking around.

Yang Ming first boiled the water to a boil, then took out a bag, and poured out the cicadas inside.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Dozens of hundreds of cicadas, the black river water suddenly fell into the boiling hot water.

Then, Yang Ming slammed the lid on the pot with lightning speed.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Out of the instinct to survive, the cicadas were unwilling to die, and tried their best to survive in the boiling water, making a crisp sound.

However, they are still too fragile, like praying arms blocking a car. After a while, the sound in the pot gradually died down until it became completely silent.

At this time, Yang Ming quickly lifted the lid of the pot, scooped up the cicadas from the boiling water, and put them into a larger basin.

After soaking in boiling water, these cicadas are basically dead, and they are three mature, and at the same time, the dirt inside and outside their bodies is washed away.

After washing off the dust and dirt on the body, you can see that these cicadas have the characteristics of insects, with six legs and a pointed straw at the end of the mouth.

They are brown in color, with black and yellow patterns on their backs. At first glance, they look very unappetizing.

It is also hard for ordinary people to imagine that this thing can be eaten.

In fact, some people who don't eat cicadas think its appearance is scary, while others think that cicadas are dirty.

Yang Ming couldn't agree with the latter.

You know, when a cicada is hungry, it will suck the juice from the tree trunk with its own sharp weapon. As a pure vegetarian, it is much cleaner than an omnivore.

Moreover, they are also very nutritious, and can even be used as medicine. They are the best delicacies bestowed by nature on human beings.

As for some people saying that eating cicadas is too inhumane, and they don't know how to cherish animals, it's purely a Madonna attack, Yang Ming even scoffed.

You know, my big foodie nation has a fine tradition of eating cicadas thousands of years ago.

The earliest record about eating cicadas can be found in "Zhuangzi".

It is said in it that Confucius saw a hunched man sticking cicadas with a bamboo pole like searching for something, so he asked him if he was "righteous". Increase, until five are placed without falling down, sticking cicadas with bamboo poles is like searching for things.

Although the story tells that you must concentrate on doing things, you can also see the delicacy of cicadas, otherwise there is no need to spend so much effort to catch them.

The Qing Dynasty also specially set up a sticking pole. Although it is closer to a secret service organization, as a slave with unique skills, it may be the original intention of its establishment to put an end to the cicadas and ensure the emperor's nap.

Sure enough, I am a big foodie nation, and I have already fully ordered the talent of eating, and I have truly become the top of the food chain!

Afterwards, Yang Ming did the same thing, scalding the remaining cicadas in the cloth bag to death with boiling water, and then removed the heads, limbs, viscera, and wings of the cicadas, and put them in a plate.

Fortunately, Yang Ming completed a hidden mission before, and obtained the basic knife skills, which made him more efficient, and it didn't take much time to get it done.

Next, Yang Ming poured out the boiling water in the pot, washed it, refilled it with water, poured in a few bags of salt, boiled it, put in cicadas to cook for a while, and finally took it out and drained it.

In fact, the above are all previous achievements in making the cicada dish.

After that, it varies from person to person and develops different approaches.

Speaking of this, we have to mention our ancestors.

"Xunzi" records: "The one who shines on the cicada must light its fire and shake its tree." If a fire is lit under the tree and the tree is shaken vigorously, the cicada will throw itself into the sea of ​​fire, and it can be eaten after being burned to death.

In addition to this kind of broiled food, it can also be steamed, boiled, and made into soup.

Cui Hao's "Food Classic" is quoted in "Qi Min Yao Shu", and there is "the method of cicada breasts: beat them, cook them with fire, break them finely, and add vinegar." Vinegar is vinegar, and the processed cicada breasts can be " Steam it, finely chop the parsley, and put it on top." You can also "put it into the boiling soup, and then take it out, break it as above, and use the coriander Polygonum method." It can also be used to make cicada sauce.

It can be seen that different methods have different tastes.

However, due to the limited materials in Dazner's family and the fact that this is not a recipe transmitted by the system, Yang Ming had no choice but to keep things simple.

First of all, Yang Ming cracked a few eggs, leaving only the egg whites, put them in a bowl, and poured half a bowl of cornstarch into another bowl.

Then, Yang Ming boiled the oil pan until it was 40% hot, dipped the removed head, limbs, viscera, and wings with egg whites and cornstarch, and then put them into the pan.

Crackling! Crackling!

Like moths to a flame, or like going up a mountain of knives and down a sea of ​​flames, they stir up waves of waves in the oil pan, and even a little bit of hot fat will splash out when it is more intense.

When frying, be careful not to overheat, because it is easy to overcook and burn, which will seriously affect the taste.

Since these fine ingredients are very light and float on top of the oil, it is easy to tell if they are cooked or not.

When the fine ingredients are fried until golden brown and crispy, and a mellow aroma wafts out, it's time to take them out and put them on a plate.

At this point of time, it is also when the fine ingredients are fried until the outside is crisp and the inside is close to crisp. It tastes crunchy and crispy, and it has the pleasure of eating potato chips, which can be eaten as a snack.

Yang Ming has been frying in the kitchen and still doesn't feel very fragrant, but he made everyone waiting in the house hungry.

Naruto stretched his neck, desperately pushed his nose into the air, and desperately inhaled the fragrance in the air into his body.

Sasuke gave him a disdainful look, "You're a hindrance, don't throw it here if you want to be ashamed, you've completely embarrassed us in class 7!"

"Who are you talking about, you!" Naruto retorted bluntly, turning the corner of his eyes to the kitchen inadvertently, only to see a figure sneaking in sneakily.

After a while, Yang Ming let out a terrifying roar in the kitchen.

"Kakashi, you bastard, who told you to steal it!"

"Why don't you cut it, come to me quickly!"

Originally, Zai Buzhan was leaning on the sofa, looking like a BJ lying down, and was comfortable, when he suddenly heard Yang Ming's order, he was shocked and rushed into the kitchen.

Then, Naruto and Sasuke, eyes widened in disbelief, saw that the wall connecting the kitchen to the hall was demolished.

call!

After driving away Kakashi, the greedy cat, Yang Ming continued with the next dish.

Next, stir-fry the cicadas with garlic!

This is even simpler. Yang Ming cut the cicada's body into pieces, being careful not to break it too much, otherwise the taste will not be so good.

Then heat the pan, heat the oil, pour in the chopped garlic, and fry the pan until it explodes!

Finally, pour in the chopped cicadas and stir fry!

In the hot pot, the flames are burning, and the cicadas are flying!

Like an elf in the flames, it dances a mouth-watering dance at the cost of its life!

Holy crap, it took five hours to write this chapter!

By the way, you guys are awesome, you have eaten 1% as many dark dishes as I do.

Who else actually said that Guangzhou people cannibalize human flesh, what the hell, this is just a human flesh bun that has been circulated in Guangzhou legends, have you ever eaten it?

I just heard from my deceased grandma that the little Japanese invaded Guangzhou and made human buns because of the shortage of supplies. Could it be that you traveled from that era?
