Reborn in the 80s, starting with hunting in the mountains

"You go back to my house first, and I'll go to the market to buy some food." Lin Yi said to Yingzi.

"Then Brother Yi, I'll go with you." Yingzi said quickly.

She used to get along quite well with Ji Yi's family.

But instead, after the relationship was confirmed, they became a little restrained.

Maybe he will become an elder in the future.

So when she heard that Lin Yi was going to buy groceries and went to Lin Yi's house alone, Yingzi became anxious.

Lin Yi smiled slightly at Yingzi: "An ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law after all, so what are you afraid of? Besides, you look like a fairy and you are not ugly. My mother said she wanted to measure your measurements and make clothes for you. Well, you go over first, I’ll buy the groceries and be right back.”

When Yingzi heard what Lin Yi said, he had no choice but to nod.

"Then you have to come back soon, otherwise I will be bored at home."

Lin Yi waved goodbye to Yingzi.

Then he drove the donkey cart and left.

It only takes less than 10 minutes to walk from Yingzi's house to Lin Yi's house, which is very close.

In fact, Lin Yi went to the market not to buy vegetables, but to buy some tableware.

Today is the first time Yingzi went to Lin Yi's house for dinner.

So Ji Yi wanted to give Yingzi some different delicacies.

A few days ago, didn't Lin Yi buy some fish species on the black market?

There are many sturgeons among them.

Last night, Ji Yi harvested a batch of sturgeon, and unexpectedly got several kilograms of caviar.

That’s right, it’s caviar, which is known as one of the three delicacies on the Western table.

The three most treasured foods in the eyes of Westerners are caviar, foie gras, and truffles.

Caviar ranks first. From ancient times to the present, it has been a delicacy highly respected by princes and nobles.

Lin Yi felt that today was a special day and very memorable, so he planned to entertain his family with caviar.

In the 80s, not much was known about caviar in China, and it was only spread in a small area.

At this time in Lin Yi's previous life, he didn't even know what caviar was.

He only learned about this dish when he opened a restaurant later in life.

At that time, domestically produced caviar had already grown in scale, and it had become the largest producer and exporter of caviar.

However, the price of caviar has always been very expensive.

Even if later generations of domestically produced caviar lower the price of caviar, it will still cost 1 kilograms.

Of course, Lin Yi is talking about sturgeon caviar. If it is other caviar, the price is still very cheap.

On a certain store, there is a lot of caviar that costs tens of yuan per pound.

But that caviar, Ji Yi thinks, it is better not to test the poison easily.

Soon, Ji Yi came to the market and found the tableware he needed, which was a wooden spoon.

There is an iron spoon at home, but this kind of spoon cannot be used to taste caviar.

So Lin Yi came here specially to buy wooden spoons.

Lin Yi has eaten caviar several times, so he knows some correct ways to taste caviar.

If the method is incorrect, it will taste strange and give people the feeling of eating dark cuisine.

Just like a spoon, if you use a metal spoon to taste caviar, it won't work.

Because caviar contains salt, if you use a metal spoon, it will destroy the umami flavor of the caviar itself, and the taste will not be so authentic.

It also gives the caviar a light metallic taste.

So this is also the case in later generations. There are many people who don’t understand this and say that caviar is terrible to eat.

But knowledgeable people know that you cannot use metal spoons to eat caviar. You usually use shell spoons or ivory spoons.

The former is an economical type, and the latter is an enjoyable type for princes and nobles.

Of course, Ji Yi has no place to get these two spoons now, so he has to use a wooden spoon instead, which is the same.It will not affect the deliciousness of caviar.

After shopping, Ji Yi bought some biscuits and took them back.

When he got home, Li Xiuhe had already measured Yingzi's size and started cutting the cloth.

Lin Qingfeng went to the forest farm yesterday and asked someone to get this cloth from the supply and marketing cooperative.

The cloth coupons that Ji Yi left for his family last time were all spent.

Lin Yi was also very helpless about this.

"Brother Yi, are you back?" Yingzi was watching TV with Lin Rourou in the room. When she saw Lin Yi coming back, she quickly went out to greet him.

"Sister Yingzi, please slow down, my brother can't run away. If he runs away, I will catch him back for you." Lin Rourou joked.

In the past few days, her personality has become much more cheerful.

Thanks to Lin Yi's ability to make money, the family no longer has to worry about money, so everyone has a lot more smiles on their faces.

In the past, just thinking about not having money was enough to make me worried, but there were still so many smiles.

"Look what I brought back." Ji Yi took out the caviar packed in a jar.

If you don't care about space, we will extract it and package it for you.

One pound per can, very nice.

"What is this?" Yingzi and Xiaomei were stunned when they saw the caviar that Lin Yi took out.

"Like fish roe? Brother Yi, don't you just buy this when you go to the market?" Yingzi asked in confusion.

Lin Yi nodded and told them that this was caviar.

In the Northeast, because we are very close to Mao Xiong, we also know some Western delicacies.

Eiko and the others may not have seen caviar, but they have heard of it.

When I heard Lin Yi say that this thing is caviar, I still said oh, it turns out that caviar looks like this.

Lin Yi told Yingzi that what she just said was actually correct.

The so-called caviar is actually fish roe.

The word caviar is transliterated from the ancient Persian language, which means fish eggs.

Of course, in many cases, caviar refers specifically to sturgeon eggs.

Because other fish eggs are not as famous and are not recognized by the princes and nobles.

Caviar used to be a high-end ingredient, but the price was not affordable, and ordinary people couldn't afford it.

Of course, what is good at the top must be good at the bottom. In the eyes of ordinary people, the food that the big guys like to eat, of course they also want to taste it.

If they can't eat authentic sturgeon caviar, they eat other fish eggs.

For example, the eggs of catfish and salmon can also be made into caviar. The natural taste is not as good as sturgeon, but the price is cheaper.

"Brother, what kind of fish does your caviar come from?" Lin Rourou asked curiously.

"Guess." Lin Yi smiled and said nothing.

"I guess it's from Sturgeon." Eiko said.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up, how could Yingzi guess it at once: "Oh my god, Yingzi, how could you guess it?"

He felt a little unbelievable.

Eiko had never seen caviar before.

I don’t know what the differences are between the different types of caviar.

"Well, because I know that Brother Yi, you are very capable, so what you get must be the best." Yingzi blinked and gave the answer.

This was said beautifully, and Ji Yi felt very comfortable after hearing it.

"Sister Yingzi, you are right, I think so too." Lin Rourou nodded.

They also don’t know how big the price difference is between ordinary caviar and sturgeon caviar.
So I guessed it was more expensive. (End of chapter)
