Chapter 204 Fish Head Soup
The fish head soup she was going to make was different from the previous ones.
The heads of these whitebait are too small and have little meat. After Qiao Xi finishes cooking the soup, he will take them out and throw them away so that they will not remain in the soup and affect the taste. He mainly uses the fish heads to enhance the freshness.
At this season, the farm is full of crispy and tender gray thistle. You can pick a handful and cook it in the delicious fish head soup. It is soft, tender and fragrant, it is absolutely delicious.
And there is a lot of it, so you can cook a big pot like this and give enough to all the little ones on the farm.
Of course, the golden macaques were not included. Since the production line stopped working, they took the compensation given to them by Josh and ran back to the mountains with their families, under the pretext of re-fighting for territory.
But according to Josh's observation, they probably went up the mountain to show off. They had long lost interest in the wild fruit forest on the mountain and wanted to stay on the farm. This time they went up the mountain, maybe to provoke their old rivals and make them angry to death.
But, it's the nature of animals, and Josh can understand it.
Large handfuls of gray thistle are rinsed under running water, arranged in a clean bamboo basket, waiting to be put into the pot.
The fish oil was put into the pan and the fat was extracted. Then the fried and browned fish oil was scooped out and thrown to the two hungry bear cubs nearby.
If you think Josh is not fried dry enough, the little Ringtail Fire Bear can add some more fire to the fish residue and fry it until it is dry and crispy.
However, the fish oil residue was limited after all, and the two little bears quickly finished the fish oil residue Josh left for them.
He began to turn his attention to the half basket of whitefish that had died most tragically that belonged to Little Bear. Josh had also removed the heads of these fish and hung them out to dry in the sun. After all, he had promised Little Bear that he would have a share.
Right next to the two little bear cubs.
Poof! A small fireball hits it, and the selected fish is unharmed.
No, it can't be said to be unscathed. Josh glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and it seemed that there was a little bit of burnt black on the tail.
She pretended not to notice and didn't dare to look closely, because the little cub of the Ringtail Fire Bear was obviously hot and a series of small fireballs with exhaust were thrown at it, successfully roasting the fish body into a black charred corpse.
Here, eat! Ring-tailed Fire Bear jumped over in two or three steps and handed the miserable dead fish corpse to Little Star.
"Hulu?" "Give it to me?" Little Star didn't want to eat it very much. It hesitated and didn't reach out to take it.
"Boohoo!" Ring-Tailed Fire Bear was furious. He put his hands on his hips and looked at Little Star angrily. "You don't even want the thing I gave you?"
Josh turned his back, not wanting to get involved in their war, lest he get hurt.
There was too much fish oil in the pot, so Qiao Xi took the opportunity to skim out a lot of it. Otherwise it would be too greasy and he would be drinking fish oil instead of fish soup.
There was just the right amount of fish oil left in the pot, so Qiao Xi put in the cleaned fish heads. The hot oil instantly wrapped around the numerous white fish heads, bringing out the freshness and fragrance of the fish heads.
The head of the whitebait fish is not big and it is fried after just two stirs. Then add the prepared boiling water and the soup instantly turns milky white.
The effect was better than she had imagined. She had originally thought that the whitebait's head was too small to be fried into a thick milky white soup. It seemed that she had underestimated this kind of fish.
After the minced meat on the fish head was melted, Josh used a large colander to scoop out the fish head and threw it aside. He would discard it. Josh divided the thick white fish head soup into three parts. Since the gray thistle from one pot was not enough for the elves to eat, he divided it into three pots to ensure that everyone had a share.
Josh and Oswin's dinner was also taken care of.
Fresh wild vegetables paired with the delicious fish head soup are edible by both herbivores and carnivores. The big-tailed yaks and the jumping lambs all find it delicious and there is nothing they cannot accept.
After drinking the delicious fish head soup, the farm became lively again.
The next morning, Qiao Xi was not busy cleaning up the dried fish that had been hanging overnight. Instead, he went to the spider grass to pick up all the little spiders.
Although Oswin prepared a lot of medical supplies, most of them were internal medicines such as potions. He didn't see any similar bandages and band-aids made of attribute materials. Josh planned to let the Mian Mian Spiders work overtime and continue to do some more.
It has been a long time since the last time the self-adhesive bandages were made in the workshop. During this period, the spiders have been practicing hard every day, and have mastered both their skills and ordinary silk-spinning to perfection (according to the melon-eating sheep).
As soon as Qiao Xi arrived, everyone was eager to show her the results of their hard training.
Josh only half believed what the spiders said and didn't dare to have too high expectations. He just hoped to make some progress compared to last time.
Seeing Qiao Xi's perfunctory expression of disbelief, Xiao Huang and several other little spiders who claimed to be the best among the soft spiders secretly made up their minds to give Qiao Xi a big show and shock her.
Josh naturally didn't know about the little spiders' complaints, but even if she knew, she would only say quietly in her heart, just don't make a big deal out of it.
A complete flower bud was left as the seed for next year's Warm Light Cattail, and the rest Josh planned to make bandages and Band-Aids. One part was made into the regular version, and the other part was mixed with a few more Warm Light Cattails to make a strong version, so that it would be easier to deal with special situations.
However, there are only so many Warm Light Pu, and no matter how hard you try, you can only do so much. This time, the Mianmian Spiders are not kidding Qiao Xi, it is really different.
Their skill proficiency improved more than a little, and they were also quite skilled at spinning silk and weaving webs. Some little spiders even started showing off their skills in front of Josh.
That ultimate move comes out one after another and it’s hard to dodge.
This time the bandages and Band-Aids were made perfectly to suit Josh's idea, with smooth white color interspersed with golden warm velvet.
A gentle healing energy lingers in it, and it is obvious at first glance that it is a fine product with intricate workmanship.
How is it? Well done, right? The spiders waved their flexible eight legs and asked Josh.
"It's not just good, it's very good! Little spiders, this is what you are now!" Josh gave them a thumbs up, very surprised.
"It's amazing. You've improved a lot compared to before. I'm impressed, you know. Thank you very much for your hard work. Thank you, little spiders." Josh said seriously as he looked at them.
It’s not that great, hehe. I just tried a little bit, haha (hands and feet dancing)
Josh praised us! (Spider Hug)
After Qiao Xi's sincere flattery, the spiders were so confused that they became extremely inflated.
They were happily spinning around the workbench, wishing something would appear right now so they could show it off again.
Eh, what is this?
A soft spider jumped up with a ricochet and successfully landed on the warm sun fleece placed nearby.
Waving her little feet, Josh, do you want to knit these? We can continue!
