Chapter 520 The Eighth Banquet

Wake up early the next morning, this is the last day.

Li Junge went to fetch water first, and then brought back all the fish, and picked some lotus root belts and cress along the way.

A Yin went to the beach to collect Pippi shrimp and strange crabs, and Li Junge started to deal with the bamboo rats.

Boil the taro, scald the skin of the bamboo rat, shave and burn the skin, wash and cut into pieces, and throw the leftovers such as the head and ribs into the soup pot to hang the soup.

Then start to punch holes in the bamboo tube, and put on bamboo nails to make a large round table top.

Put together the table top, move it to a square table and place it on it, wrap a piece of bamboo skin around the outer ring, tie the joints with hemp rope, and roughly smear it with resin.

The gap between the bamboo tube and the bamboo tube was uneven. Li Junge brought a bucket of dry sand to fill it in and smooth it out. This not only provided a flat surface, but also increased the weight of the tabletop, making it more stable.

But the appearance is very ugly, but this is not a problem for Li Junge. The linen towels used for sleeping are useless now, and they are used to spread them, and a decent banquet table is settled.

Then add fresh scallions to the Zhuerbai and start wrapping the Zhuerbai.

After the taro is cooked, take out the thin and soft pig's trotters, remove the bones and spread it on the bottom of the bowl, put the taro on top, add salt and drizzle the broth, and steam another layer with the pig's cake.

Then put the minced garlic meat on a plate, put the blood skin vegetables mixed with coriander on a plate, put the boiled sea cabbage on a plate, take a large bowl to make sweet and sour sauce, and then pour three cold dishes on it.

Now there are four fire eyes, one for cooking broth, one for steaming in a steamer, and the remaining two, one for Li Junge to fry catfish, and one to fry bamboo rat meat.

Both sides are carried out at the same time, the catfish is fried and put into the pan, the bamboo rat meat is fried with ginger and garlic until golden, then add water, fragrant leaves, star anise and start to turn yellow.

Only then did Li Junge find time to dig giant bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest in the back mountain.

After finishing so many things, it was only nine o'clock in the morning, and the bamboo forest still carried the humidity of last night and the fragrance of some wild flowers.

Bamboo poles were inserted in several places where there were bamboo shoots. Li Junge found a place that had not yet sprouted, and dug out the bamboo shoots.

Carrying bamboo shoots like cannonballs back home, I saw that the guests had already arrived, and Ah Yin was being surrounded in the middle asking this and that. Everyone's eyes were full of curiosity, surprise and admiration.

When Ayin saw Li Junge, he waved: "Erpi, we met on the way, so we came here together. Come on, let me introduce the three hosts to you."

Li Junge threw the big bamboo shoots to his feet, ran over in three steps at a time, grabbed the hand of the man in the middle and did not let go: "Mr. Bei! Why are you here! You are my idol!"

Bell shook his head hurriedly: "Don't, don't! Jungle, you are my idol! My show is Survival in the Wild, you and Ingris, this is rebuilding civilization! Quickly show us your precious sword and a few bows !"

Nian leaned over his head: "Jungle! My name is Nyan, and I'm the host of Thailand's Three Channels. Thank you very much! According to the program team's survey, among the viewers and friends who have watched this program, those who are willing to travel to desert islands account for 70.00% Three, they are very curious and shocked by everyone, especially the lifestyle shown by you and Ingris on the show, especially some parents with children, think that this is a very educational programme."

Li Junge said with a smile: "This is actually a traditional agricultural and civilized way of life. It has lasted the longest and longest in our country. Until the 90s, this kind of life can still be seen in some remote mountainous areas. Ingris and I happened to be I grew up in such a village, so I am familiar with it."

Tanya from the South African team was holding Ayin's hand and talking cordially. Hearing this, she raised her head and said, "Jungle, before I went to the island, I thought Danny and I had a better life, because I grew up with my elders. The experience of living in the wild, I am shocked by everything you have here! You even made porcelain! This is simply a miracle!"

Sally also laughed and said, "I heard that you have also opened a vegetable garden, raised fish, raised bees, raised quail... Wait, this tablecloth was woven by Ingris? Oh my God!"

At this time, Ayin took the machete, three bows and matching arrows, put them on the table for everyone to watch, and then went to make tea for everyone, and served fruits and biscuits.

Laura picked up a biscuit and put it in her mouth, tears came out: "It's been fifty days, and I finally have a real biscuit. This is definitely a soda biscuit fermented with yeast and baking soda. There are dried fruits, shredded coconut , and honey! Ingris I'm so curious, how did you get the yeast and soda?"

Ayin smiled and said: "We extract the yeast from a fruit that smells like alcohol, ah, that's it. In addition, we have baking soda and baking soda, this is a bit complicated, we need Jungle to give it to everyone Explanation."

Li Junge briefly explained the preparation process of extracting salt from seawater and obtaining various auxiliary chemicals, and said: "There are still a few hard dishes that I have to go to the stove. It seems that you don't eat very well on the island. Today we will open The banquet in my hometown, everyone has a good meal! A Yin, please accompany me first!"

After everyone ate some biscuits and fruits to make the bottom, A Yin began to lead everyone to visit the front and back of the house, explaining the production method of each thing, referring to the origin and actual function.

Naturally, it attracted bursts of surprise and admiration.

Li Junge cut the tips of giant bamboo shoots into pieces and boiled them in salt water, then braised them with bamboo rats.

Salt the Ji Luo fish and army fish, season with ginger, scallion, garlic and wine lees, and Li Junge starts to fry the pipi shrimp on another fire eye.

After the bamboo rat and winter bamboo shoots are stewed, put them into the blue color bucket bowl, and the pippi shrimps are also fried for the first time.

Then wash the pot and fry the cassava cubes that A Yin took back.Started with Garlic Grilled Catfish with Chili Sauce Ginger Onion Garlic.

The cassava cubes are deep-fried and added to the grilled catfish to continue cooking. Deep-fried Pipi Shrimp is wrapped in salt and pepper.

Put the catfish out of the pan into a blue bucket bowl, and sprinkle with chopped green onion together with the braised winter bamboo shoots of bamboo rats. Li Junge shouted to A Yin who was leading the crowd to shoot and play: "A Yin, tell everyone to wash their hands and eat!"

While steaming Jiluo fish and army fish in the pan, start to fry the topping of chopped pepper fish with pickled ginger, soaked pepper, minced garlic, chopped green onion, jam, wine lees and salt.

After everyone was seated, A Yin set the dishes and chopsticks, and put garlic paste white meat, sea cabbage, blood skin vegetables mixed with big coriander and topped with seasonings, together with fried taro stems, shredded bamboo shoots in cold salad, and a platter of cured meat on the table.

Then we divided bamboo cups for everyone, brought the fruit wine jar under the eaves, mixed some honey water, and filled them up for everyone.

Li Junge's steamed Jiluo fish and chopped pepper fish were also out of the cage, and toppings were poured on the chopped pepper fish. Li Junge brought these two dishes to everyone along with salt and pepper shrimp.

Then open the steamer, bring out the chicken with cuttlefish, duck with sour bamboo shoots, braised pork trotter in braised sauce, and braised pork trotter with taro. Turn over the bowl with a blue colored bowl, pour the seasoned broth, and serve them bowl by bowl.

Every time a dish is served, a circle of foreigners can't help but "wow".

All kinds of dishes, although there are only olfactory and visual sensations now, are already colorful, beautiful in shape, and exquisite in utensils. Putting them in a big hotel is not considered a loss of hotel status.

Bell hurriedly asked Li Junge to sit down together. Li Junge raised his wine glass and said with a smile to everyone: "It's a happy meeting with a pot of dirty wine. Thank you for this show, which gave us a rare holiday and a beautiful fate. I believe that all the teammates participating in the competition, Like me and Ayin, I have experienced the sweetness and preciousness of feelings, come on, let us hold up the wine glasses, pay tribute to this show, and bless ourselves!"

These words went to everyone's heart, and sure enough, everyone raised their glasses: "Well said! Cheers!"

After drinking a glass, everyone smiled. Argentina's Passarella itself is a good wine, and he slapped his thigh and shouted: "Good wine! Ingris, you must tell me how to make this wine!"

A Yin said with a smile: "The method is very simple, the key is to have such a jar."

Putting down the cup, Li Junge put his hand on Ayin's shoulder and said, "Let's eat and chat first, and I'll make two hard dishes over there, and then I'll come over to accompany everyone."

After returning to the stove, boil the coconut milk first, and then wash and peel the strange crab.

Dig out all the crab meat, pour out part of the boiled coconut milk and save it for A Yin to make pearl sauce later, chop up the strange crab meat and put it in for cooking.

In another pot, start frying salt fried meat with the remaining pork belly.

There is no fermented soy sauce, no bean paste, but the fermented chili sauce tastes good. Add some honey to enhance the sweetness. Sprinkle with wild garlic seedlings and turn it over a few times to get it out of the pan.

Cook the crab meat on the other side, add some salt to taste, sprinkle some diced cattail, pour a bowl of tapioca flour water into it, make a soup, put it in a bowl, and the crab soup with coconut milk is complete.

After serving these two dishes on the table, Li Junge sat down to chat with everyone, and kept urging everyone to drink.

Lu En said to Li Junge: "Jungle, I am Lu En, the host of the BBC Recording Channel. Here is a toast to you. Your trip to a deserted island not only solved the problem of survival, but also showed us a variety of Chinese skills. Poetry, music, and food. Behind all these, there is a long history and splendid culture, which has benefited us all. I must say that your country is a great country, and your people , is also a great nation.”

Li Junge raised his wine glass: "Thank you very much for your praise of our country. It is a hospitable country. What I have shown is just the tip of the iceberg. All my experience comes from the teachings of the elders in the village. They Many of them are national-level intangible cultural heritage inheritors, and their skills are so wonderful, those of me are just scratching the surface."

Lu En was obviously very surprised: "Really? That's really amazing..."

Li Junge said with a smile: "I'm not bragging at all. By the way, our village has its own website. We have made documentaries about the skills of some non-inherited inheritors. If you are interested, I can tell you the website address. Everyone can visit and watch."

He raised his glass and said, "Come on, let me toast you all again... Huh? Why are the girls jealous?"

Lu En said with a smile: "The main reason is that the food you cook is so touching, especially after fifty days on the desert island, girls..."

Passarella laughed loudly and said: "Jungle, thank you for this banquet. It made up for us part of the guilt towards the other half!"

Laura said with a smile: "Before I went to the island, I thought that having a full-bodied barbecue would be a great way to entertain guests. I used to ignorantly think that the only Chinese delicacies were fried rice and Kung Pao chicken. On top of that, you can make so many tricks!"

Lu En was very excited: "Ji Luo fish! Just this one dish has elevated this banquet to the top! Not to mention other exquisite and elegant dishes! Bell, have you tasted the fruity taste in the fish? ? The name of the Emperor of Freshwater is not my nonsense, right?"
