Chapter 678 Eel Rice
Jian Yan laughed and retorted, "You're so beautiful! It's true that our family values girls over boys. If you have the guts, don't come to my house and eat for free!"
Before she finished speaking, she quickly and accurately fished the eel out of the fresh-keeping box.
Eels, like snakes and yellow eels, are inherently scary creatures. They made Lu Jinci and the others feel sick as soon as they were fished out.
Lu Jinci was about to speak, but when he saw the eel she had fished out, he immediately swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and changed it to, "Is this for you to eat?"
"Isn't that nonsense? Why would I buy it if I'm not going to eat it? It doesn't look good." If it looks good, you can keep it as a pet. Such an ugly eel can only be eaten.
Very good, this answer is very senior.
Jian Zhou swallowed her saliva and looked at the big eel twisting and struggling in her hand with a look of disgust, "Senior sister, how can this thing be delicious if it's so disgusting?"
"Be more confident and remove that word 'ma'. Eel tastes very good. Today's main course is eel rice."
As he spoke, Jian Yan swiftly took the eel to the sink, rinsed it, and then began to process it.
Thanks to the optimized genes of the Imperials, she now has the strength to easily subdue the giant eel.
With such a big eel, she wasn't sure she could handle it alone in her native world.
Too heavy and too big.
Lu Jinci and the others didn't know what the executioners in ancient books looked like.
But the people who watched Jian Yan use a knife to separate the flesh and bones of a lively long worm, putting the meat in one pile, the bones in another, and the eel liver in another, all thought that she should be the executioner.
Jian Zhou lowered his jaw, eyes sparkling as he said, "Senior sister, your swordsmanship is amazing."
"Um."
Lu Jinci responded in agreement and said, "I have a cook at home, but her knife skills are nothing compared to hers."
Xie Yan placed the cleaned large scallops in a basin, stood up and said, "Schoolgirl, now that we have cleaned the scallops, is there anything else we need to do?"
Jianyan is cooking rice. Today's main dish is eel rice.
As the base material of eel rice, rice is the most important.
If you want eel rice to be delicious, the cooked rice must be neither too soft nor too hard, with distinct grains, so that it tastes good with the fatty eel meat.
"Take some vegetables out of the crisper, wash them and wait for me to get them done."
"But first, wash the green onions, ginger, garlic, carrots and onions for me. I need them."
"no problem."
Xie Yan nodded and started to act quickly.
Press the rice cooker button, and simply marinate the separated and cleaned eel bones and liver with scallion, ginger water and white wine for five minutes, then stir-fry the scallion, ginger and chili rings cut by Xie Yan, then add the fish bones and liver and fry slowly over low heat.
This is a tedious process that requires timely flipping to ensure that every piece of fish bone and liver is fried to bring out the freshness of the eel in all directions.
Uneven heating can easily affect the taste.
When it is almost done, add onions and carrots and stir-fry briefly, then pour soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, etc. into the pot, and finally add water. Bring to a boil over high heat and then simmer over low heat. When it is thick, it becomes the sauce for the eel rice.
There is mucus on the surface of the eel, so the skin needs to be rubbed with salt or flour. After washing off the mucus, use kitchen paper to absorb the moisture. She gave this task to Lu Jinci.
The eel was very big and it would take some time to clean it. Jian Yan took advantage of this opportunity to fish out six large conches from the fresh-keeping box equipped with a water circulation system, put them in a large soup pot, and added water, cooking wine and ginger slices to cook.
