Chapter 541: Xianxian's Puffer Fish Cuisine



"This is a fish, it's highly poisonous, you can't eat it."

Hearing this, Qianqian smiled and looked at Li Xiuzhu and asked, "Master, Sister Rong said we can't eat it, what do you think?"

Before Xianxian arrived, all the women had arrived and heard the conversation between the two. So, dozens of pairs of eyes were looking at Li Xiuzhu worriedly, fearing that Li Xiuzhu would be upset.

Upon hearing this, Li Xiuzhu looked at Huang Rong and asked, "Isn't this a violation of the fairness of your competition?"

Huang Rong nodded when she heard this. Although she cared about the competition, she cared more about Li Xiuzhu's life.

From what Kankan said, Li Xiuzhu knew this kind of fish, so he should have known that it was highly poisonous.

Li Xiuzhu saw Huang Rong nod, and then he spoke: "Although this fish is called bubble fish, its original name was pufferfish."

"Why are they called pufferfish? Because they are found in the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. I don't know if they are found in other places."

"Puffers have been feeding on algae for a long time, so they have accumulated a lot of algae toxins."

"So its liver, blood and skin are not edible."

"But puffer fish meat is edible."

"Rong'er, you should know that the more poisonous something is, the more delicious it tastes."

"And the toxin of this pufferfish is so strong that even a single drop can kill a person. It is a poison more deadly than arsenic."

“The more high-end the ingredients, the simpler the cooking method. Often, simple cooking can bring out the ultimate sweetness of the original flavor.”

"So Rong'er, the pressure is on you this time."

Huang Rong was stunned. She didn't expect that this soaked fish could actually be eaten.

this……

Seeing Huang Rong was confused, Qianqian smiled and said, "I remember the first time I ate those delicious dishes in Yunzhu Tower, I said that the dishes in Master's restaurant were the best in the world. Master retorted that I know what the best food in the world is. There are so many delicious things in this big world."

"Then I asked the master which one was the most delicious. The master told me that it was dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat on the ground."

"And the Hazel Grouse is that dragon. Because its claws resemble dragon claws, it is called the flying dragon bird."

"The donkey meat on the ground isn't that good either. The chef said the best thing on the ground should be bear paws."

"But these two types are only found in the northern part of the Great Wall. They are rarely seen in the inland areas."

"The things swimming in the water are divided into river fish and seafood. Among the river fish, puffer fish is the most poisonous and the only one that is poisonous. Its poison is stronger than arsenic."

"There are many kinds of seafood in the sea, and they can be eaten raw or cooked, and there are many different parts of the sea."

"The most delicious cooked fish is the deep-sea yellow croaker, and the most delicious raw fish is the bluefin tuna."

"This is the only pufferfish I can find near Heluo."

Huang Rong looked at the black pheasant in the fire and suddenly became a little less confident.

She still used the same cooking method for beggar's chicken, but after learning so much from Li Xiuzhu, she improved the method. She fed the beggar's chicken with eight kinds of ingredients, both raw and cooked, and also coated the chicken evenly with eight kinds of spices.

She was confident of winning, but with Li Xiuzhu's knowledge of black pheasants and what she knew about them.

How special must the ingredients be for Li Xiuzhu to consider them as top-notch ingredients?

Kanan smiled and stopped provoking Huang Rong. She washed the puffer fish and fed it wine.

What she fed was not rice wine but bamboo leaf green snake.

The fresh fragrance of bamboo and the medicinal aroma of the green snake itself can not only remove fishy smell and kill bacteria, but also paralyze pufferfish quickly.

After getting a puffer fish drunk with a pot of wine, the two puffer fish were put aside after they were drunk.

Don't be in a hurry, let the aroma of the wine soak in for a while.

Time passed minute by minute, and after about two quarters of an hour, the pufferfish had become a skinny creature.

Kanan flicked her finger at the pufferfish.

Before the pufferfish could have any stress response, Kankan put her fingers together like a knife and cut through the pufferfish's body. The next second, the pufferfish's head and its internal organs were instantly cut off.

The white and smooth tender meat along with the spine appeared in Kankan's hand. At this time, the puffer fish in the bucket did not know that it was dead, and it puffed up its belly vigorously.

Kanan used her finger knife to separate the fish meat that was stabilized by her internal force, and then turned around to deal with the other one.

Pufferfish are rare, and they were caught at night, so Kanan only got two.

Kankan followed the same method and took care of the other one as well.

This is when production began.

For the two puffer fish, Kanan only used the cooking method of stewing them.

She didn’t add any special ingredients, but simply fried the fish fillets in chicken oil, then added bamboo fungus which was not so flavorful and blanched tofu to remove the beany smell.

Add some seasonal shredded white radish.

Sprinkle some salt after the water boils, and a bowl of salty and delicious puffer fish soup is ready.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Although Xianxian started late, she finished earlier than Huang Rong.

It takes a long time to roast the chicken wrapped in lotus leaves. It will take at least two hours to roast a chicken.

However, Huang Rong did it first, so she was not much later.

Kanan served Li Xiuzhu a bowl of fish soup and ran to get a bowl for herself.

She had never tasted puffer fish before, and was very curious about what the top-quality ingredient that the chef praised tasted like.

There were two puffer fish in total, so I only made two small bowls of fish soup.

Although the others were also curious, they didn't say anything.

Firstly, they didn’t dare, and secondly, they knew there was no place for them.

Li Xiuzhu took a bite, and the sweet and fresh taste rushed to his head, better than all the fish and seafood he had ever eaten.

It is said that river fish is more delicious than seafood, and this time he finally believed it.

Kanan also took a bite and her eyes widened after just one bite. She thought that what she had eaten from her master was the most delicious thing in the world, but she didn't expect that this puffer fish was even more delicious.

I'm afraid that even if she were an ordinary person, after tasting the delicious puffer fish, she would find ways to clean the puffer fish just to have another bite.

Even though, even though you know it is poisonous and you might die.

Li Xiuzhu took three sips and suddenly noticed the bright eyes at the side.

Seeing the curious eyes of his women, and the way they were drooling, Li Xiuzhu said, "Come and have a taste. Each person can only have one bite, there is not that much."

As for a bowl of soup, even though the bowl is not big, it still has twenty spoonfuls.

You don't need twenty, fifteen spoons would be enough, including the three sips he drank and even the maid's.

The first person to come up was the selfless Xiao Meng, which was really something Li Xiuzhu didn't expect.

At this time, Huang Rong's chicken was also ready.

Kanan glanced at these women, snorted coldly, and said nothing.

Although it was only made for the master to drink, but since the master had asked for it, could she still stop his wife from drinking it?

Looking at the half bowl of fish soup left in her mouth reluctantly, Kanan appeared in front of Li Xiuzhu in a flash.

"Master, let me give you some of my fish soup."

Li Xiuzhu glanced at Kankan and didn't refuse. This was the little girl's kindness. She would be angry with you if you refused.
