Chapter 312 Snake Soup
Shirley lingered on the cliff for a while, but before she could pick the rhombus, Jodian brought everyone back.
Besides people, there was also a snake that came back.
What Ye Jiaojiao just detected with her spiritual sense was a giant python.
Probably smelling the human presence, the giant python followed their scent and came over. It was discovered by Ye Jiaojiao when it was still some distance away. With her reminder, Qiao Dian and others took some effort to kill the giant python.
At this time, Ye Jiaojiao didn't understand why Jodian dragged the giant python back. When Jodian carried the giant python and moved towards her step by step, Ye Jiaojiao subconsciously took two steps back.
This little action was discovered by Connie.
Connie looked at the giant python, then at Ye Jiaojiao, smiled, and moved closer to Ye Jiaojiao: "Mr. Ye, so you are afraid of snakes?"
"I'm not afraid, I just don't like it." Pursing her lips, Ye Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at Connie.
Thought:
I think, few girls like snakes, right?
Although roasted snake meat and snake soup are delicious.
Back then, when the third senior brother was at his most mischievous, he once tricked her into eating snake soup. At that time, she didn't know what she was eating, she just thought the food was delicious. By the time she realized that she was eating snake soup, it was too late.
That time, she took the sword and chased the third senior brother across half of the mortal world, so she stayed outside for a long time. When the eldest senior brother found them and knew about this matter, the eldest senior brother accompanied her to hunt down the third senior brother for another half a year.
Since then, Ye Jiaojiao has developed an inexplicable feeling for snakes.
Touch, no, no!
Eat? Hesitant.
The giant python killed by Jodian is not rare. It is also an edible exotic animal. In the wild, when there is no nutrient solution, some soldiers or bounty hunters will choose to kill the giant python as food.
Hunting took a lot of effort. Everyone originally thought that after killing the giant python, they could bring it back and let Ye Jiaojiao make it into a delicious food. However, they never expected that the strongest fighter in their group actually disliked the giant python. For a moment, everyone was at a loss for words.
Ye Jiaojiao is a good cook and a generous person.
Following her, during the first few days of military training and these three days, the members of Group S001 were able to eat delicious food almost every day. Compared with other groups, their treatment was really good.
Seeing that Ye Jiaojiao was disgusted with the giant python, Qiao Dian picked up the giant python without saying a word and was about to throw it back into the jungle.
Just as Qiao Dian took a few steps away, Ye Jiaojiao suddenly called out to him, "Do you want to eat this?"
After asking, without waiting for Qiao Dian to speak, Ye Jiaojiao stared at the giant python for a few seconds and swallowed her saliva: "Forget it. This is it."
It was past noon. I had been looking for water chestnuts, so this was the perfect time for lunch. Ye Jiaojiao decided not to worry about it anymore.
After spending some time dealing with the giant python and setting up the earthen stove, Ye Jiaojiao planned to make a pot of snake soup.
Snake soup is considered a less popular dish in Cantonese cuisine.
Snake meat contains many essential amino acids for the human body, including glutamate which enhances the vitality of brain cells, and has the effect of strengthening nerves and prolonging life.
Unlike the slippery and sticky texture of snake skin and nutrient solution, snake soup is not only very nutritious but also very delicious if it is well prepared.
Since her cooking conditions were average, Ye Jiaojiao found a simpler method in the recipe package that retained the most original flavor. It only required the use of dried tangerine peel and ham to cook together.
The boys had already taken the python and removed its skin, head, tail, bones and internal organs. Ye Jiaojiao boiled a pot of water on the stove, first boiled the snake meat in the water, and then cut the snake meat and ham into shreds for later use.
Ye Jiaojiao had some dried tangerine peels stored in her space. She took some out, added water to boil and extract the juice, then put the dried tangerine peel juice, shredded snake meat, shredded ham, etc. into the same pot, and finally added an appropriate amount of rice wine and salt and started to cook.
It took half an hour to blanch the snake meat. During this time, Shirley had already collected the water chestnuts. Everyone rested on the spot while Jing brought the snake soup out of the pot.
Ye Jiaojiao kept staring at the fire. Because the snake meat had been cut into shreds, the image of the giant python in her mind gradually faded. Later, as the fragrance began to waft, she slowly approached the pot on the stove, with a hint of desire in her eyes.
"Is it ready to eat?" Connie, who is also a foodie, had a similar reaction to Ye Jiaojiao. He didn't have any idol baggage, and he ran to the stove and squatted there as soon as the pot started to gurgle, asking Ye Jiaojiao from time to time.
In order to save trouble, Ye Jiaojiao mostly roasted and steamed various exotic beast meats in the wild area these days. In addition, she didn't want to be too arrogant and directly expose the mustard seed space, so she rarely used the seasonings hidden in the space button.
Now, encountering a delicious, all-natural snake soup, Ye Jiaojiao was excited, Connie was excited, and even the dull Jodian unconsciously shrugged his nose.
"We have to wait a little longer." After taking a look at the pot, Ye Jiaojiao took a look and skewered the extra cooked snake meat on a clean stick and handed it to the others: "One pot of snake soup is definitely not enough. Let's grill some more snake meat."
"Okay!" In order to get a bite to eat, Connie actively grilled the meat, and Jodian and others also took action.
The python is huge in size, and after removing the head, tail and internal organs, there is only a lot of pure snake meat left.
After cooking a small portion in the pot, Ye Jiaojiao skewered the remaining snake meat and began to roast it before the snake soup was almost cooked. In just a short while, the aroma of the roasted snake meat and snake soup reached everyone's nostrils.
The snake soup was boiled first, and the aroma of tangerine peel wafted out of the pot along with the fragrance of snake meat. The roasted snake meat was added with chili and cumin, and it was obviously a stronger flavor, but the roasted snake meat could not cover the fragrance of the snake soup.
Two flavors, one after another, are very present.
Everyone gathered around the earthen stove, their stomachs churning.
After realizing that she was a little dazed by the aroma of the snake soup, Ye Jiaojiao cleared her throat uncomfortably, and her ears felt hot.
She doesn't have a real scent.
Mainly because the food is too delicious.
Turning the snake meat skewer in her hand, Ye Jiaojiao gently cut along the texture of the snake meat with a knife. The meat was roasted by the fire and soon, when it was almost ready to eat, Ye Jiaojiao sprinkled a handful of white sesame seeds on the snake meat skewer.
The snake meat had been roasted till golden brown, with hot oil mixed with meat juice occasionally dripping into the fire. White sesame seeds were sprinkled on the snake meat as embellishment, and it was burnt till it was charred. Connie who was standing by was almost drooling at the sight.
Me. Can I switch with classmate Ye?
I want to eat the snake meat grilled by classmate Ye!
The snake meat grilled by Mr. Ye is obviously more delicious!!!
Staring eagerly at the roasted snake meat in Ye Jiaojiao's hand, Connie licked his lips and asked again: "Can we eat it now? Can we eat it now?!"
Ye Jiaojiao, completely unaware that Connie had her sights on the skewers, casually pulled one out, blew on it, and then took a bite while being stared at by everyone: "Hmm, so hot."
The aroma was tangy and her mouth was filled with the salty and meaty flavor. Ye Jiaojiao squinted her eyes and was instantly intoxicated by the delicious taste of snake meat.
Connie reacted the fastest and forgot to think about the snake meat that Ye Jiaojiao had roasted. After Ye Jiaojiao started eating, he was not afraid of the heat and was too lazy to blow on it. He impatiently stuffed the roasted snake meat into his mouth, making his mouth bulge like a ball.
Let’s say no to wild game, starting with me.
