Wang Ye's foodie farm concubine

Chapter 29 Cooking Fish
"Otherwise? How many more do you want to catch? I can wait for you here." Yuyao looked at her eldest brother and said.

Yu Jingze shook his head quickly.

Everyone packed up and headed home with the fish in hand.

"Yao Yao, do you really have a way to get rid of this fishy smell?" Jiang asked looking at the bucket full of fish.

"Yes, but I'll have to ask my uncle and others to help later."

She really doesn’t want to kill the fish, and besides, she’s still young, right?

"Okay, we will do whatever Yaoyao says."

"Then kill these fish first, but you need to remove the fishy lines."

"Okay, but what is this fishy thread?" Yu Youkang asked.

"The fish's fishy line grows on the back of the fish. After calling it, the fish's fishy smell will be less, because not all fish have fishy lines, so I will tell you this later when you finish killing."

After Yuyao finished arranging the uncles' work, she turned to her eldest aunt and said, "Auntie, you will cut the fish according to my instructions later, okay?"

"Okay, Yaoyao just tells me how to cut it."

After a while, Yu Youfu and several others killed all the fish.

"Now that the Yaoyao fish have been killed, tell us how to get to the fishy line." Yu Youning said, holding a basin of fish.

"Uncle, put the fish on the table, make a slit near the head of the fish, and also slit the tail near the tail, then tap it flatly with a kitchen knife a few times, and the fishy line will come out. Gently Pull out the thread carefully and be careful not to break it." Yuyao guided the uncle step by step.

Yu Youshou and others were also watching and learning.

"There is also one on the other side, just take it out in this way."

"Auntie, is there any wine at home?" Yuyao turned around and asked.

In fact, it is better to use cooking wine, but it is not available here. There is some in the space, but it is not convenient to take it out now, so I can only use the wine I drink instead. "Yes, how much does Yaoyao want?"

"Just give me a little."

"Okay, I'll get it right away." Jiang said and went into the house to get it.

"Mom, I need onions, ginger and garlic." Yuyao looked at her mother and said.

That time Yuyao and Uncle paid special attention when they went to the grocery store. There seemed to be almost no spices in this place, not even chili!Not to mention star anise, cumin, bay leaves, cinnamon and so on.

"Okay, I'll get it."

"Yao Yao is ready and has finished taking it." Yu Youfu said.

"Okay, thank you, uncle. You've finished your work. Go and have a rest. You can just wait and eat."

"Okay, we'll be outside. If anything happens, call us."

They also wanted to help, but the kitchen was too small to accommodate so many people, so they had to wait outside.

"Yao Yao, what are we going to do?"

"First aunt, second aunt, third aunt, and mother will decide what to do next. When eldest aunt and mother cut the fish, they should first chop off the heads and fins of the three fish, lay the fish flat, and hold the fish body with one hand. , hold the knife with one hand close to the fish bones and slice the meat of the fish body horizontally, so that both sides are sliced, then slice the fish diagonally into thin slices, and chop the fish bones into two inches in length."

"Third Aunt, can you help me take care of the fish head first?"

"sure!"

"Then add the shredded ginger to the oil pan. Heat the oil and fry the fish head until it is slightly brown. Then add an appropriate amount of wine and water. After it boils, lower the heat and let it simmer slowly. Then the third aunt will mix the noodles and steam the buns, so that when the fish is ready, it can be served directly to the table."
