Chapter 732: Country PARTY

"Emilia, why do you think of me that way?"
Since Powell told Emilia of what had happened in the sea just now, Emilia's eyes changed when she looked at Xiao Peng.
After hearing this, Emilia looked at Xiao Peng's eyes even more weird: "Xiao Peng, really can't tell, you are so brave! You can rescue people from the jaws of a great white shark? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
Xiao Peng scratched his head: "I have lived by the sea since I was a child, and I still know sharks. So although it's dangerous, it's worth trying. It seems I'm lucky."
Emilia exclaimed: "But you have done such an amazing thing, you should publicize it. How can you be like nothing happened?"
Xiao Peng shrugged: "We Huaxia people will remain humble at all times. This is the outstanding character of our Huaxia people."
Emilia heard this: "But..."
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "Okay, Emilia, you don't need to talk about it anymore. I'm fine anyway, and people have been saved. What we should consider now is how to eat this herring!"
After he finished talking, he ran to the kitchen.
When he arrived in the kitchen, Xiao Peng cut the herring into individual pieces. Some of the herring was lightly marinated with salt, and the others were marinated with malt vinegar, onion and fennel. He mixed some warm salt water and put the chopped herring roe into it. Salted.
Xiao Peng did not spare the remaining herring. Cut into herring sections without scraping the scales. Put salt on the herring sections, wrap them with plastic wrap, and put them in the refrigerator safe. After doing all this, Xiao Peng walked out of the kitchen slowly, Emilia and Judy were chatting, and saw Xiao Peng come out: "Xiao Peng, can you eat it?" Emilia asked.
Xiao Peng was speechless: "You know how to eat. I'm just doing preparations. After a while Powell and the others said that they want to open PARTY, then they can eat, you little greedy ghost." After that, Xiao Peng turned to go upstairs.
"What are you going to do?" Emilia asked.
Xiao Peng said: "With such a nice sun and such a big swimming pool, wouldn't it be a waste not to go down for a while? I'll go up and change my swimming trunks."
After hearing this, Emilia rolled her eyes and ran upstairs: "I'll go, too."
Xiao Peng was taken aback: "Do you have a swimsuit? Are you going to swim too?"
Emilia shook her head: "Who said I want to get a swimsuit? I want to get a sketchbook."
"What are you doing with a sketchbook?" Xiao Peng asked.
Emilia smiled and said: "Then I have to ask, I don't draw free models? Isn't that stupid..."
"alright, you win......"
The advantage of having fewer people in a small town is that every household has a good relationship, just like Biland was bitten by a shark. Although this person is hated and mentally ill, Bob and the others still go to the hospital to visit. So it didn’t take long for a lot of people to come to the yard of the
Best Western Hotel Chain
, but they were mostly middle-aged or old people. There were very few young people. Uh, like Huaxia, young people ran away. City now.
After seeing Xiao Peng, everyone said the same: "Young Chinese, you are really good."
"You are the hero of our town."
"God will bless you, brave man."
"..."
There are few people in a small town, so news flows quickly. Everyone knew about Xiao Peng's rescue of Billand.
Xiao Peng was very humble and communicated with people, which won praise from more people, and they said words of compliment such as the modesty of Chinese people. Well, Xiao Peng’s real thoughts are: If you know that I got the shark that bit Biland, would it eat me?
Such a PARTY has the advantage that no one comes empty-handed: this one brings a bottle of red wine, the other brings a few cases of beer, you bring a vegetable salad, I bring a potato salad, and you bring pork chops? Then I bring steak. Music and several ovens are busy working together, which is quite lively.
After calculating the time, Xiao Peng went to the kitchen to work: the herring meat was marinated in salt, drizzled with lemon juice, topped with diced onions, and sprinkled with a little pepper. The traditional Dutch cuisine pickled herring was finished. . The herring meat that is more than ten centimeters long is called a delicious one.
As for the herring meat marinated in malt vinegar, it's better to say that it can be eaten together with mustard. This is the traditional way of eating in Northern Europe, sour and sweet, fresh and tender.
The fly in the ointment is that the mustard here is the same as Huaxia, it's fake, so I can only make do with it. If it is real mustard, the taste will be higher.
Ninety-nine percent of the mustard sold on the market in the Star-Tangled Country is fake. In fact, it is just a mixture of horseradish, hot mustard and some green food dyes. Huaxia usually eats this.
The real mustard is very difficult to grow, so it is also very expensive, and the wholesale price is one hundred and sixty dollars per kilogram.
The real mustard is a spicy yellow mustard made by grinding mustard seeds. The real mustard has a more complex smell and needs to be eaten immediately within 15 minutes, otherwise the fresh mustard will begin to lose its signature taste. 90% of the mustard in the world is eaten in high-end restaurants in the island country. Freshly ground, very precious.
Even if food safety regulations are strict in the Star-Tiao Country, it is not unusual for Li Gui to pretend to be Li Kui in the Star-Tiao Country. Take Kobe Beef as an example. There are many, many, many restaurants in the whole star-tiao country that offer dishes made of Kobe beef, like Kobe burgers or expensive Kobe steaks, but actually? There are only eight restaurants in the entire Star-Tiao Country that sell real Kobe beef. The rest of the. . . . . . All are Li Gui! But since they have been in business for so many years, aren't they still business as usual?
As for herring roe, it tastes very good if it is slightly salted, but Xiao Peng doesn’t want to deal with it like this. Xiao Peng slices the herring roe and slices the marinated herring meat into thin slices and presses the herring tightly. Together, this is the famous food of the island country,'Helfish'. The name comes from the English pronunciation of herring. However, in the country, sometimes mackerel is used instead of herring for this.
Xiao Peng cut the lime slices into thin slices, and then put the pressed "Greek fish" on the lime slices. Cut the carrot into shreds and garnish it on the plate. When eating, eat the lime slices with the'Greek fish'. The lime slices perfectly neutralize the fishy smell in the fish. Only the deliciousness of herring and roe is in the mouth. The fragrance.
After finishing all these, Xiao Peng asked Judy to take out the finished herring and put them on the table for everyone to taste, and then he took out the cut herring pieces for barbecue.
There is still a gap between Japanese BBQ and American BBQ. The biggest difference lies in the heat. Island Barbecue pays attention to low fire and slow roasting. The herring segments are roasted together with the scales. The herring during the breeding season is thick in fat and can be eaten until the color is browned.
Xiao Peng was leaning on the grilled fish in the corner without any haste. He made two chopsticks with wooden sticks to turn the fish. I roasted a slice and tasted it myself, because the heat is well controlled and the taste is really good. It should be even better if you roast it with fruit trees.
Xiao Peng was grilling the fish, and suddenly he felt someone behind him. When he looked back, he was shocked. Almost all the people attending the party were standing behind him and staring at him.
"Hey, what are you going to do?" This posture is so courageous that Xiao Peng will be shocked! resident Evil? Zombie siege? Why are you staring at me like this?
Powell said embarrassedly, "Xiao, we are learning how to grill herring. The pickled herring and ‘grilled fish’ you just made are so delicious. Xiao, you will definitely make a fortune by opening a restaurant."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng glanced at the dining table, uh, the pile of food he made, now only leaves the plate. Now they are all staring at Xiao Peng's grilled fish. Xiao Peng hurriedly said: "This grilled fish doesn't have too much knowledge. The key depends on the marinated fish and the heat. The fish here are all marinated. If you want to eat, just roast it yourself! But you must remember, Bake it slowly, don't worry."
After listening to Xiao Peng's words, everyone took herring pieces from Xiao Peng and left for themselves to roast and eat. Only Powell, Emilia and Judy are still here.
Powell said: "Xiao, otherwise you don't leave and stay with me. You have completely conquered my stomach."
Xiao Peng shrugged: "I have no interest in conquering men's stomachs. These are the simplest methods for these fish, and they are easy to do. If you want to learn from me and teach you."
Powell was pleased after hearing: "Really?"
Xiao Peng said: "Of course it is true, and it is not difficult."
Powell was overjoyed: "Then we are settled, Xiao, your rent will be free, and that would be my tuition!"
Xiao Peng smiled: "That's fine, even if I accept your tuition." Judy muttered from the side: "Can I also learn?"
Of course, I didn’t tell you to cook, did I? "Xiao Peng also responded to Judy's request.
Emilia is still holding a small plate in her hand. Inside is Xiao Peng’s prepared grizzly fish. She is eating small mouthfuls:
Xiao, I really didn’t expect this herring to be so delicious. I think this is a cheap fish, not a delicious fish."
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "There are no bad ingredients in the world, only chefs who can't cook. Take this herring, if there is a ranking of the most terrifying food in the world, it will also be the first."
"Ah? What's so scary about this fish? Does it look cute?" Judy asked puzzled.
Xiao Peng showed a weird smile: "In 2014, when a villager in Norway was cleaning up his house, he accidentally discovered that there was a canned food produced 25 years ago in his house. Because it had expired too long, the gas produced by fermentation had already covered the can. The top was two centimeters high! She was worried that the can could burst at any time, so she quickly notified the local armed forces, and finally the official invited the canning expert to help. Finally, the bottle of can was opened and disposed of in a closed environment. If you don’t do this , Their whole village will be enveloped by'poisonous gas', and that enchanting can is just canned herring."
Powell was shocked when he heard this: "Herrings are poisonous if left for a long time? A village will be enveloped by the poisonous gas produced by a bottle of canned food? Isn't this a biological weapon?"
The two girls also nodded desperately, and they had a thought with Powell.
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "That is the famous canned Swedish herring. The poisonous gas mentioned here does not refer to the real poisonous gas, but the smell. The canned Swedish herring is the most stinky food in the world. There is absolutely no one!"
Xiao Peng once refused to accept this and bought a bottle of canned Swedish herring on a certain treasure. At that time, he thought that no matter how stinky it was, would China's stinky fermented bean curd? It turns out that Xiao Peng was too naive. The moment he opened the can, Xiao Peng knelt directly. I learned afterwards that the odor index of China's stinky tofu is only 420AU, while the value of canned herring is 8070AU. What kind of stinky tofu and durian are all scumbags in front of it, and all have to kneel!
Emilia was puzzled after hearing this: "Did they deliberately make a smelly taste for people to eat?"
Xiao Peng shook his head: "That's not it, because the process of making canned Swedish herring is quite abnormal. It is to cook the freshly caught herring in thick brine and then put it in the can and let it ferment naturally. Marinated. The herring will become sticky and juicy, and the gas in the can will swell due to the fermentation of the herring, which will bulge the top of the can. At this time, it is the best time to taste the canned herring. It is recommended to choose an open outdoor area to open it. Can, wear a disposable poncho or a piece of clothing that you really don’t plan to need anymore, because the gas inside expands, and the moment you open the can, there will be juice spray out. At that time you will feel that you have opened a new world You can now fill up the most foul-smelling thing you can imagine, which can't keep up with the taste of canned herring."
Judy smiled: "Xiao, what you said is too exaggerated, right?"
"Exaggeration?" Xiao Peng's eyes widened. "Even the Swedish government stipulates that canned herring is not allowed to be opened in residential areas. Do you think this thing is not terrible? Who do you have a grudge against? Open a bottle of canned herring and throw it at his house. , I promise there is no harsher punishment than this."
Powell asked a question he cared about: "If this canned herring is really so smelly, it should taste good, right? How else would it have existed for so many years?"
Xiao Peng sighed: "We in China also have food that smells very smelly, like stinky tofu. It smells very smelly, but it tastes very good. But the canned Swedish herring, the conscience of heaven and earth, is really smelly, if it really makes me describe it. Regarding the smell, I can only say: In summer, I didn’t take a bath for two or three weeks. I ate sweet potatoes for a week. The sweaty uncle who farted while walking took off his clothes and stood in front of you, and took the things he had never washed before. The almost moldy underwear is stuffed into your mouth, and the taste you taste may be similar to this can."
"Oh..." Someone retched directly, but it was not the three of Powell. Everyone looked at it, and it was Old Bob who came back with a beautiful intellectual woman. It was her who vomited.
Uh, who are you?
