Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 36 For more delicious food
"The black membrane in the belly of the fish needs to be cleaned, otherwise the fishy smell will be very strong."

Because of the rain and when Mrs. Mei had not regretted it yet, Mei Qian stopped talking to Li Baizhou about in-depth topics and directly took Li Baizhou to wash the fish and prepare it for the pot.

Things will change later, so cook the fish first.

During this period, Mei Qian would naturally not scrape the fish scales. At most, she could just wait for Li Baizhou to scrape the fish scales clean and then rinse them off with the rain.

As a result, her perfunctory action happened to be seen by Li Baizhou. When Li Baizhou said this, Mei Qian was embarrassed and honestly cleaned the black membrane from the fish's belly.

But in the middle of preparing the fish, Mei Qian once again marveled at Li Baizhou's cooking skills. This man actually knew how to prepare vegetables.

Could it be that the other party was not the well-connected person she thought, but some kind of cook from a well-connected family?

Mei Qian turned to look at Li Baizhou with a strange look in her eyes, but Li Baizhou didn't notice it at all.

While handling the fish, he looked at the gradually rising water level and the turbulent water in the middle of the canal in the distance without knowing what he was thinking.

When all the fish are processed, as Mrs. Mei said before, part of it will be made into smoked dried fish, and part of it will be used for soup and barbecue.

It was also at this time that Mei Qian took out some dried wild vegetables and fruits that she had paid special attention to as seasonings along the way.

This can all be tasted by her "Mei Qianqian Baicao".

Mei Qian could hardly find wild onions and wild garlic, and the wild vegetables that she could find had an indescribable taste. That was when Mei Qian tasted some of the edible wild vegetables and fruits she found that could be used as seasonings.

"Sprinkle some on the fish when you grill it."

This was also in order to switch to the nutrient solution smoothly. Mei Qian was very concerned about the taste of grilled fish.

As for the fish soup, Mei Qian can only hope that Li Baizhou can turn decay into magic.

"what is this?"

However, Li Baizhou was very suspicious of some of the things like weeds and dried fruit residue that Mei Qian handed over, and did not immediately agree to Mei Qian's request.

"It's seasoned. This isn't a serious condiment. These are better than nothing."

After Mei Qian finished speaking, seeing that Li Baizhou was still hesitant, she simply picked a fish of similar size and put the seasoning on it.

"Is there any oil?"

Li Baizhou once again asked Mei Qian about oil, and he even explained:

"To make fish soup, it is best to fry the fish in oil and add boiling water to make the soup look like curdled fat..."

Look at this person, the emphasis on making fish soup is almost the same as when she watched cooking videos in later generations~
Mei Qian glanced sideways at the other person and wondered how well this person had eaten before.

“No, as I said, without us, where would people have so much oil?
In all these years, except for the time when the fat from the Lulu beast meat caused everyone to eat a lot of oil, their family has seen a little bit of oil splash in other times?
It was not that no one heard what they said under the stern canopy.

Just hearing what Li Baizhou said, Mrs. Han's mouth was watering: "I can't even imagine how delicious it would be to cook the fish like this kid said. If the soup can be cooked white, wouldn't it mean that all the essence has been cooked into the soup? ?Is this really delicious, mother?"

"When you make money later, I will cook it for you. Then you will know whether it tastes good or not, and you will be dreaming about it all day long!"

Han was used to being scolded by her mother-in-law all day long. She laughed shamelessly before reacting and said: "Then let little girl do it."

Her mother-in-law has been cooking for so many years, and it's not like Han has never tasted her mother-in-law's meat dishes.

There is really no sense of expectation for her mother-in-law’s craftsmanship.

After hearing the meaning of Han's words, Mrs. Mei glared at Han. Her daughter-in-law has gained a lot of gall recently. Is this so? !

"You can make this fish soup as you like, I believe in your skills." Mei Qian saw that Li Baizhou wanted to make a very delicious fish soup, but she was helpless.

A delicious fish soup does not only require oil. The most basic conditions for removing the fishy smell from green onion and ginger are not available, and Mei Qian is not willing to sacrifice the precious oil.

Now the only hope is that the fish they catch will have less fishy smell.

Seeing that Li Baizhou was very depressed because he was out of fuel, Mei Qian specially comforted him:
"Don't worry, even if your food doesn't taste good, no one in our family will complain about you. You can't make up for it anyway."

Mei Qian's voice was very low when she said this, and it seemed that she was saying it to avoid their family members. Li Baizhou couldn't help but twitching his lips after hearing this.

No wonder the family felt so comfortable letting him cook.

However, Li Baizhou, who really couldn't get oil from Mei Qian, thought for a moment and immediately opened up a new path. To make fish, just look for oil from the fish.

Mei Qian watched with her own eyes as Li Baizhou cut off the fat from the belly of several fatty fish, then fried and stir-fried it over low heat. Although the fish oil tasted a bit fishy, ​​it was indeed real oil!
"Is this okay?"

Mei Qian didn't expect that river fish can also make oil, but then she thought about it. We are all animals. There is no reason that lard and chicken fat can be made. The fish eats fat and strong, but it can't make any oil at all, right?

Thinking that their family would have to take the boat for many days, there would probably be enough fish to eat, so——

[Xiaomei, does that interstellar nutrient solution have any onion or ginger flavor? 】

Xiaomei: [How can it have such a devilish smell? ! 】

【ha? You have coriander flavor, why not onion or ginger flavor? You don’t think the smell of coriander is devilish, so what’s so devilish about this green onion and ginger flavor? 】Mei Qian was not happy at this time, and expressed dissatisfaction with Xiaomei's answer: "You are discriminating on taste, Xiaomei." 】

Xiaomei: [I have no taste discrimination. If others dare to swallow coriander-flavored nutrient solution raw, do you dare to swallow ginger or green onion-flavored nutrient solution? 】

Mei Qian:......

Realizing that there really wasn't anything of this taste in the interstellar world, Mei Qian couldn't help but think about the orc plane again.

[Are there any seasoning plants like onions, ginger, and garlic in the orc plane? 】

Xiaomei: [Of course there is, but orcs probably don’t like eating it. Food used as condiments is generally very irritating when eaten directly. Compared with ordinary people, orcs' enhanced five senses cannot stand these. 】

Mei Qian could get over this kind of knowledge after just hearing it. Anyway, she just had to make sure that she had it.

Mei Qian added a #spicy flavored food (except smelly ones) to the food preferences column in the backend of her system, in addition to the tag #GuanSong.

Thinking about the food that the orc plane players had exchanged with her before, Mei Qian had already begun to think about what she would ask Li Baizhou to do in exchange for it next time.

Oh, and there is also the function of opening private messages!

Mei Qian had been too busy to study this before. She could have contacted him via private message.

Although this function seems to be rudimentary at present, she can only contact one person via private message a month. However, in order to eat some delicious food and exchange for more good things in the future, Mei Qian decided to take the time to contact this person.

When Mei Qian finished thinking about this, Li Baizhou had already begun to fry the fish with the fish oil he refined.

Mei Qian was in a good mood now, and she was happy when she saw this, and said: "This fish probably never thought that it would be used to fry itself after eating so much fat~ This is like beating yourself up."

I just don’t know why when Li Baizhou heard her words, his face with a gentle smile suddenly turned cold...

　As for whether river fish has oil, you can actually observe it if you have cooked salted fish at home or seen dried salted fish in winter.

　　The belly of the fish is really sizzling with oil due to the sun~ And you can find quite a lot of oil in the belly of some steamed fish, but the fishy smell is really not good_(3」∠)_

　　It seems to be a matter of subject matter. I talked to the editor for a long time yesterday, but it seems that there is no way to save it in the short term. I am scratching my head.

　　Forget it, now that I’ve written it down, I have to have a beginning and an end QvQ
