Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 194

Li Xiao tried one of the two flavors of baked crab legs, and they both tasted pretty good.

The minced garlic is fried at high temperature to become crispy and delicious.

Garlic sauce is spread on top of the crab legs and baked at low temperature for a short time, the aroma of garlic completely permeates into the crab legs.

One bite, the surface is crispy, and the crab meat under the rich garlic flavor is firm and elastic.

Another cheese-flavored crab leg meat is also quite good. After the mozzarella cheese is baked at low temperature, it changes from granular to soft and semi-liquid cheese covering the crab leg meat.

With one bite, two different flavors of cheese wrap the firm crab legs to bring a heavy touch.

The outer layer of the crab legs is completely covered by semi-liquid cheese, and the taste buds on the tongue can feel the obvious milky taste. The flavor of fermented cheese combined with the firm crab meat brings a full sense of satisfaction.

These two flavors of baked crab legs are quite good. The only fly in the ointment is that the mozzarella cheese and cheese slices that can be bought in ordinary supermarkets are very ordinary, and the strong flavor from the cheese is slightly lacking.

However, considering that this was just cooking at home, Li Xiao reluctantly forgave his lack of cooking.

Put on a bowl of milky white and tender crab meat fish soup.

Li Xiao usually does not eat soup residues when drinking soup, because these soup residues will make the meat dry and dry after a long time of stewing, and all the essence and deliciousness will enter the soup.

A full bowl of fish soup did not have a single oily star on the surface, because Li Xiao had carefully skimmed off the oil while cooking.

Li Xiao put the milky white soup in front of the camera, and the sound of drooling immediately came from the live broadcast room

"Is this soup too white?"

"Did the anchor add some milk or something?"

"Are you new here upstairs? Didn't you see that the anchor directly poured hot water on the fried fish head, and the soup immediately turned white!!"

"Anchor, why does the fish soup I cook turn yellow even though it is very white?"

Seeing this barrage, Li Xiao explained

"Because we use oil when frying fish heads, and the fat will start to turn yellow slowly when frying our fish heads, so I don't want the fish soup to turn light yellow, so when cooking the soup, After adding water, immediately skim off the fat."

"And try to skim off the fat, which can make the whole pot of fish soup refreshing and not so greasy."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiao scooped up a spoonful of fish soup and put it into his mouth. The fish soup passed by in the city, leaving only the taste of fish soup.

"Although we used fish head and crab meat, there is no fishy smell in this soup, it is very sweet, because we also added water tofu in it, so this pot of soup not only contains meat protein but also With soy protein, it can be said that this pot of soup is super nutritious."

After finishing speaking, Li Xiao didn't continue to watch the live broadcast, but concentrated on drinking soup, one bowl, two bowls, and three bowls. He didn't stop in a hurry until he felt full in his stomach.

The soup made from two fresh enough ingredients is really sweet.

Putting down the soup bowl in his hand, Li Xiao turned his gaze to the table and was taken aback.

In the large plate of [Baked E-Noodles with Crab Claws with Cheese], there are still a lot of crab claws left, but there are very few E-Noodles in it.

Quickly picked up the chopsticks, and quickly pulled the remaining half bowl of Yi noodles into his own bowl. Looking at the poor side in the bowl, Li Xiao felt like crying without tears. Everyone knows such things as cheese baked seafood Yi noodles, Seafood is not the protagonist, but Yi Noodles are.

Because during the production process, the time for baking seafood will be a little longer, so that the flavor of seafood will be completely absorbed by the soup, and the soup full of seafood flavor will be absorbed by the noodles under the plate.

Therefore, seafood = soup = Yi noodles, that is, seafood = Yi noodles.

After one side was cooked, Li Xiao passed through the ice water once, so its texture would be firmer and more elastic, not like overcooked noodles, and it was quite soft.

After absorbing a lot of soup, the noodles become sticky, and after one side is put in the mouth, a strong taste of crab meat can be felt.

He ate up the Yi noodles in two or three bites, and he was still a little unsatisfied, but unfortunately he was too involved in drinking the soup, and the rest of the Yi noodles had already been eaten by several people at the same table.

What was left in the plate just now was not that everyone couldn't finish it, but it was specially reserved for Li Xiao, or when he realized it, there should be only crab claws wrapped in soup left in his nose.

Helpless, Li Xiao could only take out a crab claw.

He held the crab claws up to the camera, dripping golden cheese sauce dripping from the claws, looking very tempting.

Because it is eaten by his own family, Li Xiao is very willing to use the ingredients.

The content of cheese is very high, and he also sautéed a lot of minced garlic before adding the cheese, so the color of the cheese sauce is not the usual light yellow but a deeper golden yellow, and you can see these cheese sauces if you look closely There are also finely crushed light brown minced garlic.

"Before frying, in order to prevent a large amount of water loss in the crab claws, I spread a layer of fine flour on it, so that after frying, this layer of flour can become its protective film and protect it. The juice inside the meat will not be fried dry."

Li Xiao easily jumped the crab meat out of the crab shell with chopsticks. A large piece of pink crab meat stained with golden cheese sauce appeared in front of the audience.

"Let me show you how well this crab claw is made."

While talking, he threw the crab claw meat dripping with cheese into his mouth.

The teeth bit open the golden shell, and in an instant, the juice inside the crab meat immediately splashed out.

"It's very good. I coated it quite thoroughly, which protected the juice inside the crab meat very well. The juice is sweet and sweet, and there is a unique sweetness that is unique to cherry blossom crabs, bursting in the mouth."

"The cheese sauce is rich and has a very layered taste."

"The crab meat inside is still tender, but the crab meat on the outside has been fried crispy and crispy, wrapped in a rich and sticky cheese sauce, mixed with minced garlic in the cheese sauce, which makes the taste more intense and delicious. Can't put it down."

He licked the dripping from the corner of his mouth, but instead of continuing to taste, he set his sights on the last dish.

【Crab Leg Meat Sashimi】

He picked up the teacup next to him and rinsed his mouth. The crabs he ate just now had a relatively strong taste.

If you do not rinse your mouth, it may affect the taste of the last dish.

In fact, what Li Xiao was looking forward to the most was the last dish, so he specially saved it until the end.

After all, the better the ingredients, the easier the cooking method.

For this kind of sashimi, only the freshest and best ingredients can be used to perfectly express its taste.

The crushed ice under the sashimi emits bursts of white chill. Since the current temperature is not too high, the ice has only melted a little, but since there are two layers of plastic wrap covering the crushed ice, Li Xiao is not worried. The water from the melted ice will seep into the sashimi and affect the texture and taste of the sashimi.

Pick up a whole crab leg directly, the crab leg has some pink lines like cherry blossoms, and the crab meat underneath is translucent.

Hold one end of the crab leg between your fingers and put the crab leg in front of the camera.

"If everyone's cooking skills are not up to the 5 dishes I made earlier, then the audience masters can directly make his crab legs into sashimi like me, throw Xie Sheng directly into the pot to steam and then dip it in mustard You can eat soy sauce."

"Of course, things like crab are colder, and sashimi crab meat will be even more cool. After eating crab leg sashimi, remember to drink a large pot of ginger tea, especially for female friends."

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, sashimi will be very unpalatable if it gets hot, so I will try it for everyone now."

When the crab leg meat was being prepared, Li Xiao had already taken out his cartilage, so the whole crab leg looked soft.

Dip the meat of the crab legs directly in soy sauce that has been mixed with a little wasabi, and bite off the crab legs that have been dipped in soy sauce. The taste of mustard is very spicy, but the amount of wasabi added by Li Xiao is very small, the effect is only to soothe the taste buds on the tongue. Open.

After all, deep-sea crabs do not have too many parasites, and there is no need to consider whether it needs to add a lot of mustard to sterilize them. Moreover, he also has [steel intestines and stomachs] even if there are parasites, it is not unreasonable.

If it wasn't for wasabi's ability to bring out the umami of seafood, he wouldn't even be willing to add something so pungent.

After the crab leg meat is cooled by crushed ice, it becomes cold as a whole, with a strong sense of fiber, and the meat becomes firmer.

"Very sweet, delicious, crispy in the mouth, without a trace of fishy smell, it will be crispy after one bite, and the cold crab meat even has a little aftertaste, perfect."

After finishing the comments on [Sakura Long-legged Crab Six Eats], Li Xiao chatted casually with the audience in the live broadcast room for a while, and then closed the live broadcast room.

Taking a look at his income this time, the corner of his mouth twitched. Half of the short 20 minutes was spent eating by himself.

I actually earned more than 9000. It seems that after a person's income reaches a certain level, the income will become higher and higher, and the saying that money will become easier and easier is true.

In the past, I worked so hard for a month of live broadcasting, and I was only in the early 4s. Now I live broadcast casually for half an hour, which is worth the hard work of the previous [-] months.

Li Xiao couldn't help shaking his head, what is getting rich through hard work?Hard work can only lead to a well-off life at most, and you still need a little brains and luck, otherwise you will just be reckless and won't make much money at all.

The meal was very harmonious. You finished your meal first and went to bed early, because tomorrow is the day to go snorkeling. According to the original plan, after finishing the snorkeling, Li Xiao may go home at any time.

After all, there are quite a lot of people here now, and there are 5 employees just hired. As long as the passengers are arranged reasonably, the problem should not be too big.

Sleep until dawn, because there is actually no special time requirement for snorkeling. As long as the time is not selected, it is not night, low tide, high tide, and no wind or rain, then the underwater snorkeling scenery is very beautiful.

Get everything ready. It’s past 11 o’clock in the morning. Of course, if you insist that it’s already noon, it’s okay.

The meal at noon was still very rich, because the meal at noon today was originally the luxurious seafood meal that the third aunt planned to welcome Li Xiao.

After eating and drinking, I sent the third aunt behind the fish steak.

The 4 people drove the fishing boat and set off towards today's destination, an island located 2 kilometers away from Hailing Island.

The reason why today's destination is this island is that this island is very close to Hailing Island, and it has a small crescent-shaped bay.

Moreover, there is a pretty good coral group under this island, some underwater creatures can survive well in this safe haven, and the scenery can be said to be quite beautiful.

Although the development of Hailing Island has not been transferred here, Li Xiao feels that it will not be long before this small island, which is called Crescent Island by the locals, will become a tourist hotspot.

After all, just from the drone's aerial perspective and the audience's reaction in the live broadcast room, we can see how attractive the scenery here is to the part-time workers living in the steel forest.

"I'll go, this beach is so beautiful, silver-white sand."

"This Crescent Island really lives up to its name, it looks like a curved crescent."

"There isn't even a single larger rock on this beach."

"But this Crescent Island looks a bit desolate?"

"As an outdoor travel enthusiast, I can only tell you that the more desolate the place is, the more fun it is. What you see is the original ecological beauty without any processing. You can see many scenery that you can't usually see in man-made scenic spots. It’s just that the supporting facilities may be a little poor, but in the face of the beautiful scenery, this small flaw can be completely ignored.”

"Will you encounter sharks or something while snorkeling here?"

The speaker obviously watched the video of Li Xiao's human-shark battle yesterday.

"That's right, the shark's bloody mouth bit me casually, and I lost half of my life."

"Don't talk about biting it, I will be scared to death when I see it."

"I just took a look from the aerial camera. This crescent island doesn't even have a shark prevention net, so it's definitely not safe."

"The black-hearted anchor wants to recommend these unsafe places to the audience? I don't know why?"

"Are people's lives disregarded for the sake of making money?"

Li Xiao frowned slightly as he watched the live broadcast room suddenly be brought into rhythm.

He hastened to explain
"I've already ordered someone to customize the anti-sand net. By then, it will cover the entire bay of Crescent Island. At that time, there will be special personnel coming to ensure everyone's safety."

"Of course, before these equipments arrive, the snorkeling project here will not start. If you are worried that I am making black-hearted money, don't worry."

"In addition, not all sea areas will have sharks, and most sharks will not attack humans. Unless you provoke him or attack him, he may attack you passively."

"In addition, in the area near Hailing Island, there have been no sharks attacking humans for 30 to [-] years, so everyone can rest assured."

"Moreover, I also brought a small shark-proof net today. Although the shark-proof net can protect a small area, it is enough for us to use for live broadcast today."

After Li Xiaoli said these words confidently, he turned on his mobile phone and clicked on his Taobao APP under the watchful eyes of 10,000+ viewers.

Sure enough, there is indeed a shark prevention net worth 13 in the shopping column. Of course, although the payment has been made, it is still in the delivery state.

With the phone back, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, he planned to carry out snorkeling activities directly without protective measures. After all, shark prevention nets and patrollers are a lot of money.

But after experiencing the shark attack yesterday, he deeply understands that there are too many accidents at sea, even Hailing Island has not had a shark attack for many years.

It cannot be ruled out that some aggressive shark suddenly went crazy and came here to attack the passengers. The consequences would be quite serious and unimaginable.

At the same time, Li Xiao also showed the audience the shark prevention net placed at the stern, which Li Xiao asked his cousin to borrow from the beach management office.

Hailing Island has two rather large beaches as public beaches that can go into the sea. It is inevitable that public beaches should be equipped with sufficient shark prevention nets.

And Li Xiao didn't borrow all of their spare inventory at once, but only borrowed a small amount.

However, this small section is enough to cover the entire bay area of ​​Crescent Island. After all, although the area of ​​this island is not small, it is too small compared to the two beaches of Hailing Island.

The offensive was broken in an instant, and the black fans stopped the attack for a short time.

After all, if it is too obvious, it will make the offensive of the black fans ineffective.

Everyone sympathizes with the weak. Seeing the anchor being blackmailed by a group of people, some viewers who were just passers-by may help and become loyal fans.

This runs counter to the purpose of these black fans. As experienced professional sailors, they would not do such stupid things.

The structure of the anti-shark net is very simple. The normal difference of the ordinary fishing net is that the anti-shark net will hang a large number of counterweights on the net to keep the net vertical.

Moreover, steel wires will be mixed in the rope to increase its overall toughness, and the size of the grid will be large, so that ordinary marine life can pass through freely.

The method of arranging the anti-shark net is simpler, just put the anti-shark net from one end to the other where it needs to be arranged.

The anti-shark net will form a protective barrier to protect the things in the net properly.

The fishing boat did not dock, but stayed at the center of Crescent Bay.

There were three people snorkeling this time, Li Xiao, his cousin and his cousin.

Of course, Li Xiao's main job this time became filming, and the live broadcast in front of the camera was handed over to his cousin and cousin who expressed their willingness to participate.

After all, the subsequent live broadcasts will need to be completed by them, and it is quite necessary to warm up in advance now.

The third uncle is in charge of adapting to the situation on the fishing boat. After all, there are unpredictable things in the sky. Now the sky is clear, and it may turn into a torrential rain in the next second. There is no one on board.

The three of them quickly put on their equipment, fleece full-body diving suits. After all, it is still winter, and the underwater temperature is relatively low.

With forearm-length fins on the feet, paddling becomes easier with this fin.

This snorkeling is not a deep dive, so everyone does not have an air tank equipped with compressed air.

However, Li Xiao bought a new type of diving mask for all three of them. The mask is fully enclosed, a bit like the head-mounted covering mask worn by astronauts in science fiction movies.

The mask is equipped with two breathing tubes. The outlet of the tubes is equipped with precision floating beads. As long as the position of the tubes is lower than the water surface, it will be closed automatically. Consume the oxygen in the mask and will not inhale seawater.

Li Xiao put on the mask and tried to breathe very smoothly. The mirror surface of the mask is also very clear, and the field of vision will not be narrowed after wearing the mask.

With the help of my cousin, I installed the head-mounted camera, and I also held the waterproof underwater camera with dual lenses in my hand to bring the audience a better live broadcast experience.
