Chapter 584: Mid-Autumn Festival Crab Fatty

"Mom, we're back!" Ai Xiaohui shouted loudly as soon as he walked into the Ai family's courtyard.

After hearing Ai Xiaohui's words, Ai Xiaoxi's mother, who was busy in the kitchen, walked out.

"Hey, I've caught a lot. Hurry up and separate them, pour water and empty the sand. You can eat it in the evening." Looking at the three buckets of seafood caught, Ai Xiaoxi's mother couldn't help shouting excitedly, Then I specially prepared some large basins and threw the seafood into the basins. There was a large basin specially for shellfish. In addition to razor clams, there were all kinds of shellfish.

There is a large basin specially for razor clams, and a large basin for various crabs.

Both crabs and shellfish can breathe in water. Although this is not sea water, they can survive for a while.

After dividing all the seafood, Ai Xiaoxi's mother also put some things in it.

The crab pot was filled with salt, while the two shellfish pots were filled with cooking oil. Jiang Hai knew that this was used to make these things spit out sand.

These creatures in the sea may not be visible to others because they stay in the sand, but what they eat is mixed with a lot of sediment. If they are caught and eaten directly, it is almost like eating dirt.

Therefore, you need to put some salt and cooking oil in these pots so that they can spit out the sediment before cooking.

After everything was done, Jiang Hai and the others sat there and had lunch.

Because of Jiang Hai's relationship, the lunch was quite sumptuous. Although it was home-cooked food, the main meal had to be eaten in the evening.

Because the relatives at home were having some trouble. Therefore, no one came to visit Ai Xiaoxi's home.

After finishing these things, the food was served, and Jiang Hai and the others also picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

This time. Jiang Hai can eat it, it is a big meal. Although it is still a little salty, after all, Shandong cuisine is mainly salty and fresh.

This kind of salty taste is already acceptable to Jiang Hai. According to Ai Xiaoxi, this time her mother added salt. Only one-third of the usual amount was put in, which means that usually three spoons of salt were put in, but today only one spoon was put in. This was in line with Jiang Hai's taste.

During lunch, Jiang Hai and the others also enjoyed themselves as guests and hosts. Jiang Hai specially accompanied Ai Xiaoxi's father to have a good meal.

After lunch. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. Ai Xiaoxi's father drank too much, so he went into the house to sleep for a while. For Jiang Hai, drinking beer now was just to taste it.

It is simply impossible to drink him too much. With four times the physical fitness of an ordinary person, even with his original alcohol capacity, he could not drink more than thirty or fifty bottles of beer. However, after drinking thirty or fifty bottles, Jiang Hai had already recovered.

Of course, he couldn't drink thirty or fifty bottles at Ai Xiaoxi's house. He had six bottles and Ai Xiaoxi's father had six bottles. Ai Xiaoxi's father just lay down, while he continued to play games with Ai Xiaohui.

As for Ai Xiaoxi, she and her mother were making mooncakes by hand. I have to admit that Ai Xiaoxi's mother is really good at everything.

Before you know it, the lights are on and the sky outside is getting dark, which is annoying in the eastern provinces.

It dawned very early and darkened very early. At about six o'clock, the mooncakes and other things were ready. Ai Xiaoxi's mother also went to prepare the reunion dinner in the evening. As for Jiang Haize and Ai Xiaoxi, Xiaohui moved the table to the yard outside together. Today they specially closed the door, just because they were afraid that someone else would come and cause trouble.

But fortunately, it seems that these people should be celebrating the festival at home and don't have the leisure or time to cause trouble to Jiang Hai and the others.

The first thing to be served are mooncakes and eggs. Mooncakes are stuffed with bean paste, which Jiang Hai likes to eat. They are different from those bought outside. Ai Xiaoxi’s mooncakes are freshly made, so the outer shell is still very soft. Soft and delicious.

As for eggs, this is a popular way to eat eggs in Shandong Province. In most places in China, mooncakes are eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In addition to moon cakes, here in Shandong Province, we also eat reunion eggs. After all, they are all round. When in town, do as the Romans do.

Jiang Hai also followed Ai Xiaohui and ate an egg first and then a moon cake. This was considered a holiday.

Then came the main meal. I don’t know if it was because of Jiang Hai’s arrival, but Ai Xiaoxi’s mother prepared a lot of delicious food, including prawns, tiger skin knuckles, braised pork ribs, vegetarian cucumbers, and Kung Pao pork. Ding, crispy meat, steamed yellow croaker of course farmed, hot pot tofu, spicy stir-fried xiaorenxian made with razor clams caught today, and a big bowl of winter melon and sea rice soup.

Ten dishes means perfect, but in addition there are some snacks. The shellfish are boiled directly in a pot and eaten, and most of the crabs are cleaned up and marinated into crab sauce. But there was another part that had the shell and gills removed, and was wrapped in flour and fried by Ai Xiaoxi's mother. It looked really good.

Jiang Hai has no shortage of these meats, but he still has a soft spot for these small crabs he caught.

Jiang Hai took one bite and took a bite. After taking this bite, Jiang Hai couldn't help but let out a sigh. It smelled good. The shell of this small crab had been completely fried and crispy. The shell wrapped in flour broke into pieces with a light bite.

Then the crab meat inside is pink and smooth. The most important thing is that the crabs nowadays are all yellow.

The so-called yellow refers to crab seeds. The male ones are called paste and the female ones are called yellow, but it seems difficult to tell them apart.

In this season, there are both males and females, but since I mentioned it here, let me just say something by the way.

The color of the female crab is yellow, which refers to the ovary of the female crab, and the seeds inside are the baby crabs.

As for the paste of the male crab, cough... some things are just like red wine and pasta in Shaanxi Province. If you don't want to eat it directly, it's delicious. Just think about it and you can't eat it. Fortunately, Jiang Hai has long overcome this in his heart and eats this. Things don't matter to him.

After all, what he was most willing to eat in the past was kidneys, and it was not like he had never eaten bombs before, so his resistance to this was slightly stronger.

This little crab, although small, is indeed extremely plump. If you pick out the meat after cooking, there won't be much meat.

But once fried like this, stuffed whole into your mouth and chewed, the taste is really gone.

It's crispy on the outside, soft and smooth on the inside, and it's mixed with a yellowish substance that I don't know if it's paste or yellow.

When mixed in his mouth, it smells like flour, yellow, and meat. Putting it into his mouth made him subconsciously move his jaw to chew these things. The more he chewed, the more delicious it became. The more you chew, the more it tastes.

Eating these little crabs and drinking wine, the moon was rising unknowingly. By the time Jiang Hai came to his senses, the pot of fried crabs had been eaten up. He had to admit that during the Mid-Autumn Festival in September, It’s a good time to eat seafood.

"Haha, if I had known that Xiao Jiang likes to eat, I should have fried more. We have enough food here." Seeing Jiang Hai almost eating up the pot of small crabs, Ai Xiaoxi's mother here He also spoke with a smile.

They can eat these small crabs often here, so they have already eaten enough.

Especially the siblings Ai Xiaoxi and Ai Xiaohui. When they were young, they often caught these small crabs and asked their mother to help them fry them. This was the best snack at the time, so now they only have a taste of two. , I have already eaten enough.

Ai Xiaoxi's parents were tired of eating crabs a long time ago, so more than 90% of the four or five kilograms of crabs in the pot went into Jiang Hai's stomach. On the contrary, Ai Xiaoxi's mother prepared the crabs. After Jiang Hai tasted each dish a few times, he didn't eat too much because this little crab was so delicious to Jiang Hai.

He plans to learn it, and when he goes back, he will also catch some small crabs to do the same. The small crabs in his manor must taste even better! Thinking of this, Jiang Hai couldn't help but want to catch some small crabs tomorrow.

"Let's catch it again tomorrow. This little thing is really delicious." Jiang Hai said to Ai Xiaoxi and Ai Xiaohui while picking up the remaining crab legs in the basin pitifully. For a foodie to eat, It's not okay if you don't let him eat enough of the delicious food.

"Okay, we will continue to catch up tomorrow, but the time will be pushed back an hour." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Ai Xiaoxi did the math and said to Jiang Hai, today is only September 27th. In order to avoid the peak period, they booked flights back to Ice City on October 1st. There were still three days left, which was enough to have fun here.

As for why we have to push it back an hour? Naturally, it is because of the timing of the tides. People like them, who have been at the beach all year round, naturally know when the tide rises and when the tide recedes. The time to catch the sea can only be chosen when the tide is low, not other times.

"Oh, then we have to wait until around ten o'clock." After thinking for a while, Jiang Hai said to Ai Xiaoxi.

"Well, it's almost ten o'clock, but... can you please ask Xiao Jiang tomorrow? Before you rush to the sea, can you send me to the town first." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Ai Xiaoxi's father shouted She took a breath, took the words, and then said to Jiang Hai. After hearing her father's words, Jiang Hai naturally had nothing to say.

"What's the matter? No problem. What's wrong with uncle going to town?" Looking at Ai Xiaoxi's father, Jiang Hai agreed, and then asked him curiously, hadn't he been out of work recently? What are you doing in town?

"The leeks at home are ripe again. I'm going to sell the ones I can't eat in the town, otherwise they'll all rot in the ground." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Ai Xiaoxi's father said with a smile. Come to think of it, Jiang Hai really didn't understand much of this.

But after all, he also grows vegetables there now. He knows that leeks grow after one crop and can grow many times a year. Although Jiang Hai doesn't like the money of these leeks, Ai Xiaoxi's father Obviously different from Jiang Hai. (To be continued.)
