"Mmm, if it tastes good, I can try it too!" Liu Feifei nodded and said.
In fact, wilderness survival is about challenging yourself to do things or eat things you wouldn't dare to do before.
So if Chen Fan's cooking is good, we can try it.
However, if even Chen Fan finds it hard to swallow, then there's no need to try it...
"Okay! I'll stir-fry these pork intestines first."
After Chen Fan finished speaking, he started working.
Although Liu Feifei wanted to offer her help, Chen Fan refused.
The things I did today were not physically demanding, so I didn't feel tired at all.
Therefore, he is perfectly capable of handling small tasks such as cooking.
Moreover, it seems that Liu Feifei's physical strength has not fully recovered. If she is made to work again, she may not be able to eat plump little abalone tonight.
This time, Chen Fan didn't add animal fat directly to the pot. Instead, he cut three or five slices of lard and put them in the pot to render.
Before long, some lard was rendered from the bottom of the pot, and the cracklings had turned golden yellow!
Chen Fan first put ginger slices and lemongrass into the pot and stir-fried them until they turned golden brown, at which point the aroma was very obvious.
Then add the pork intestines and tripe slices that you just cut into sections!
Sizzle!
Steam instantly filled the pot, accompanied by a fragrant aroma.
Just smelling this aroma makes one's appetite increase.
After a simple stir-fry, add wild mushrooms and stir-fry again.
Since these large intestines are already cooked, they can be served after the wild mushrooms are stir-fried.
Just before it's done cooking, sprinkle a layer of fennel leaves on top. These leaves will enhance the aroma and remove any fishy smell.
Soon, a plate of stir-fried pork intestines was ready to be served.
Of course, the plates were made from sago palm leaves.
"You eat first, and I'll take some more pictures of the pancakes for you later. They'll taste really good when you eat them with them."
Chen Fan spoke gently to Liu Feifei.
After all, Liu Feifei is now his woman, and he can't mistreat her in any way.
"I don't want to! I want to finish cooking everything and eat with you." Liu Feifei shook her head in refusal.
These are all the fruits of Chen Fan's labor. It would be quite inappropriate to start eating them all by yourself without waiting for Chen Fan.
Moreover, eating together makes it more enjoyable.
"Okay, it'll be ready in a minute."
Seeing Liu Feifei's determination, Chen Fan stopped pressuring her.
Then she continued making the dough, and perhaps because of her previous experience, she became very skilled at it.
In just over ten minutes, four pancakes had been prepared.
These flatbreads can be wrapped around braised pork intestines; the taste will definitely be quite delicious.
After making the dough, Chen Fan put the crocodile oil into the pot to melt it, and then heated it to about 70-80% of its maximum temperature.
"Now comes the moment to witness a miracle..."
Whether this stuff tastes good or not depends on the final product in a few minutes.
Chen Fan was also very uneasy at this moment. He didn't know if this thing was edible or if it would taste good.
So this can be considered the first attempt...
Sizzle!
The moment the small insect was put into the pot, oil splattered everywhere.
After a short while, things calmed down.
Soon, all the worms were fried until their skins turned golden brown.
Judging from the color, it should be about right.
Chen Fan used bamboo chopsticks to pick all the larvae out of the oil pan. They were golden in color and looked very appetizing.
Then Chen Fan chopped some lemongrass and minced ginger, and mixed them with the fried grubs.
It looks very appetizing, but most people still can't accept this kind of food.
Because some people are naturally more afraid of mollusks, just like some people are more afraid of snakes and some people are more afraid of mice.
This is a psychological fear that is very difficult to overcome.
If you accidentally step on one and crush it, or if a caterpillar happens to fall into your neck, it can make you feel uncomfortable for a long time.
Meanwhile, the live stream chat became lively after seeing this scene.
"Holy crap!! Chen Fan doesn't really want to eat these maggots, does he? Can you even eat these things? They look disgusting!"
"Anyway, I hate these kinds of soft-bodied creatures the most. They're slimy and disgusting just thinking about them."
"This is what I fear most. I'd rather be killed than eat it. I'd rather starve to death than eat this stuff."
"Yeah, yeah! I really don't understand why anyone would like to eat this kind of thing?"
"The last time I went on vacation, I saw a lot of barbecue stalls grilling these little insects. I really couldn't understand it!"
"This stuff is delicious. The burst of flavor when you bite into it is so satisfying. It's packed with protein."
"Exactly! This stuff is very high in protein. I heard it has ten times the protein of beef. I don't know why anyone would refuse such a nutritious delicacy."
"Anyway, I really like eating it, especially after it's deep-fried, it's incredibly fragrant..."
"I'm a girl and I love to eat this, so I don't know what you grown men are afraid of?"
...
The comments and bullet screen in the live stream were also divided into two groups.
Some netizens find the sight of these worms terrifying, and even just looking at them makes them feel uncomfortable, let alone eating them. Why would anyone like to eat such a thing?
Of course, some netizens think that this is a delicious food with high nutritional value, and it is very fragrant after being deep-fried. They don't understand why some people don't like to eat it!
Just like stinky tofu and durian, those who enjoy them find them very delicious.
But people who don't like it simply can't stand the taste.
"Chen Fan, are you really going to eat this thing?"
Liu Feifei still asked with some uncertainty.
"I'll just try one; if it doesn't taste good, I won't eat it."
Chen Fan smiled, sprinkled some salt on it, and then picked one up to examine it.
He then put it directly into his mouth and began to chew.
It's crunchy and tastes like chicken. I don't know how many times more protein it has than beef!
Chew carefully and savor slowly.
Actually, it tastes really good, mainly because the animal is deep-fried, which makes it very fragrant.
Adding the previously added seasonings makes the flavor even better.
Watching Chen Fan savor the food slowly, Liu Feifei looked on with anticipation!
Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "How is it, Chen Fan? What does it taste like?"
"Is it delicious?"
Judging from Chen Fan's expression, it probably doesn't taste that bad.
If it were unpalatable, one would probably spit it out after a few bites, but Chen Fan seemed to be savoring a delicious dish.
"Not bad! To be honest, it smells pretty good."
"It seems like eating silkworm pupae and cicada nymphs," Chen Fan nodded and answered seriously.
Perhaps it was fried a bit too dry; it only tasted very crispy and fragrant, without any special flavor.
"Really?" Liu Feifei was still a little skeptical.
"Hmm, why don't you try one?" Chen Fan fed one to Liu Feifei's mouth.
He genuinely thought the taste was pretty good; if it had tasted bad, he wouldn't have given it to Liu Feifei.
