Chapter 185 Spicy Crayfish

This one has a lot of meat, so it must be good.

He Jiawen was shocked by Xia Yu's train of thought. Is this how rich people eat?

He did not forget that he was also a rich man, but compared with Xia Yu, he was like a poor guy.

He could afford it, but he never imagined there was such a way to eat it.

Xia Yu is not trying to attract attention by using a single Australian lobster weighing nearly one and a half pounds to make spicy crayfish, but he really thinks eating ordinary crayfish is too troublesome.

After much difficulty peeling one, there was only a little bit of meat, not even enough to fill the gaps between teeth. The meat in the pliers was even more troublesome. People who didn't know how to eat it just threw it away. In short, it was difficult to satisfy one's appetite in one go.

Such troubles gradually gave rise to a new profession - shrimp peeler.

They provide shrimp peeling services for customers and pay them by the hour. The capable ones can even earn over 10,000 yuan a month. This is similar to the Xie Zunyuan that Xia Yu ate at before. Eating crabs is too troublesome, so they can directly pick out the crab meat, crab roe and crab paste for you.

Xia Yu could have hired two shrimp peelers, but he still didn't feel satisfied.

They’re all lobsters, so why can’t we cook big lobsters the same way?

A bold idea led to today's plan. Xia Yu planned to make a spicy lobster meal and have a good meal.

In fact, lobster is just a broad name. Crayfish is closer to Boston lobster, which is also a crayfish. But that one is too cheap. After thinking about it, Xia Yu asked the supplier to find a batch of good goods.

Although these twelve Australian lobsters may not look small in size, they are all imported sea-caught lobsters that just got off the plane today and quickly cleared customs. They are expensive and the meat is more delicious.

Land-based game is not popular among the mainstream wealthy because most of it is protected species and has a poor taste. However, it is different for aquatic products. Farmed game is cheap, but the taste is much worse than caught game.

He Jiawen glanced at the foam box next to him and picked up the lid, on which was a customs clearance document.

"Fourteen hundred dollars?"

Twelve Australian lobsters weigh nearly fifteen pounds, and the various expenses added up to about one hundred dollars per pound. Xia Yu spent nearly ten thousand dollars on raw materials alone.

“This price is not expensive.”

It is indeed not expensive, because expensive and cheap are determined by comparison.

With Xia Yu's current salary, he can eat such a meal thirty times a day. Moreover, there are two people and he is alone, so he can eat about sixty meals. The Engel coefficient is obviously very low.

"It would be great if we could use this money to get a good health check!"

He Jiawen's tone was a little regretful.

"That's all you can do."

"I mean, I've serviced the car twice."

Listening to Xia Yu's complaints, He Jiawen said seriously.

"Stop joking, let's get started and try to have a midnight snack by ten o'clock."

Xia Yu said as he turned on the camera.

"Hello everyone, I'm your Brother Dayu, we're here to eat again today..."

Facing the camera, Xia Yu began a brief self-introduction and introduced He Jiawen to everyone.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lao He, a friend of your brother Dayu."

The camera turned and He Jiawen greeted everyone with a smile.

Xia Yu had told him about filming the video before, and he was a little excited to be on camera for the first time.

"It's almost halfway through August, and summer is almost over. We want to catch up and have a spicy crayfish meal to leave a good memory."

The camera turned again and aimed at the "little" crayfish in the pool.

"This is our star of the show today. Twelve of them should be enough for the two of us!"

An Australian lobster weighing more than one kilogram, if you remove the head and water and only eat the meat from the tail, it will probably be less than half a kilogram. If one person eats six lobsters, it will probably weigh about three kilograms.

For young and strong guys like them, this midnight snack is just right.

"When cooking crayfish at home, you can only cook it to about 60% or 70% of its original taste. With a high-fire stove and more seasonings, the taste can be even better. That's why we are here."

Xia Yu said this as he circled the camera around the kitchen.

Many dishes taste better when cooked on a high-fire stove, but most people don't have that condition. Xia Yu is not talented, but he happens to have such a restaurant, which allows him to fully display his talents.

"Viewers who don't have a high-fire stove at home can buy the ingredients and find a restaurant to prepare them."

He Jiawen, who was helping to clean the lobster, couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

At first glance, Xia Yu's words sounded like a very reasonable tip, but his fans could afford the processing fee, but they couldn't afford to pay for the lobsters!

"Now I'll teach you how to handle lobsters."

As he spoke, Xia Yu picked up a lobster with its claws bared and picked up a pair of chopsticks in his other hand.

"Push in here at this angle, then pull out."

"Puff~~"

A foul-smelling liquid spurted out of the lobster's tail.

"This is called adding corpse water. If you don't add it, it may have a smell. You can choose chopsticks or toothpicks according to the size of the lobster."

Hearing this, He Jiawen couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed out loud.

This guy is so talented. He even uses toothpicks. It would be great if he could just remove the shrimp thread from the crayfish.

"Lao He, pay attention, we are professionals."

What's professional? Is professional funny?

He Jiawen responded, but couldn't help complaining in his heart.

But it's quite interesting to share such little daily life with others. When he gets home, he will pick up the Weibo account that has been abandoned for three years.

Back then, he was also an emotional blogger with 100,000 followers, but it is not clear how many tens of thousands of them were zombie fans.

After repeating the previous operation twelve times at normal speed, Xia Yu turned the camera again and began to introduce the ingredients to be used today.

He Jiawen continued to help and brought the lobster over.

"Buzz~~"

The fan turns on, followed by a high-fire stove.

Orange-red flames burst out instantly, licking the commercial wok, which was several times larger than a household iron wok.

Without learning to be a chef, most people really can't operate a high-fire stove. But who is Xia Yu? With the bonus of cooking skills, the memory of watching Tan Shiye cooking before instantly came to his mind.

With a turn of the wok, a spoonful of oil was poured directly into the wok. Holding the handle of the wok wrapped in a wet cloth with his left hand, he shook it gently a few times, and the hot oil evenly covered the wall of the wok.

Wow, there's something!

Even though He Jiawen is not an expert in the industry, he can still see some clues. Xia Yu's actions are very much like those of a chef, as if he had studied at New Oriental.

Xia Yu gave him more and more surprises, maybe they would really be delicious in the end.

Put dried chilies, garlic slices and various spices into the oil pan and stir-fry until fragrant, then add bean paste and rock sugar and continue to stir-fry, the aroma will come out soon.

The amount of these ingredients was frightening, but what was even more frightening was that Xia Yu poured twelve Australian lobsters into the pot together.

"Sizzle~~"

The moisture in the lobster collided with the hot oil, making a loud noise. The next second, Xia Yu began to show off his skills.

The bottom of the pot rubs against the edge of the stove, and the coordination of hands and waist makes the Australian lobster just put into the pot seem to be riding a roller coaster, colliding with the spices and hot oil in the air, and then slowly absorbing the flavor.

Is this the legendary flipping spoon?
