Chapter 10 The Legendary Delicacy - Grilled Green Bear Paws

"Huh~ Guta, you move so fast."

Nia came in a hurry, and from a long distance, she saw the young man squatting in front of the two bear corpses collecting materials.

The boning knife moved along the edge of the fur, and with the oozing of a large amount of scarlet blood, a piece of bear skin was simply peeled off.

This method of handling prey was not known in the ancient pagoda, but the mother-in-law of the village chief told him clearly that this is the knowledge that every hunter must learn.

Fortunately, with the correction of the sword weapon that came with his [Slash LV2], he had mastered this skill thoroughly within a few days, and even used it better than many old hunters.

Pulling out the wide-bladed bone knife behind his back, Guta slashed down several times.

The torso of the bear carcass was visibly divided into several pieces.

Carefully wrapping the bear's paws with lotus-like plant leaves, Guta unconsciously licked the moist corners of his mouth.

The bear's paw of the blue bear beast is notoriously expensive and rare.

It's not because of the difficulty of hunting, but at its root, it's mainly to protect the blue bear beast, a species that is generally not strong in reproduction.

Who calls it bear's paw, it is the first-class food that countless gourmets flock to.

"Guta, please tell me first, I have never cooked the bear paw of the green bear beast, you should find the village chief's mother-in-law." Nia, who understood Guta's nature, said, and then helped to divide the meat, using simple After the rope was firmly tied, it was tied piece by piece to myself.

"Ah, I'm not going to eat here." Guta touched the saliva at the corner of his mouth, saying something against his will.

Both of them were quick with their hands and feet, and within a few strokes, they packed up the materials that could be collected from the Grizzly Beast, as well as some of the high-quality bear meat.

After that, they did the same thing and cleaned up the first green bear that was hunted half a kilometer away. The two of them carried the package that was several times heavier and set foot on the way back to the village in the snowstorm.

……

"Nia, you have noticed that the bear's paw needs to be turned over constantly during the roasting process, so that the meat is heated evenly. But the time should not be too short, in case the center of the bear's paw is not cooked through."

The snow outside the window was mixed with small pieces of hailstones, still falling sporadically.

With his back against the window sill, Guta rested his hands on his cross-legged knees, looking expectantly at the peeled bear's paw that was sizzling with oil on the iron plate beside him.

Saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth like bursting a bank, but he didn't know it.

Looking back at the iron plate, as the bear meat gradually turns golden, even without any seasoning, the rich meaty aroma has permeated the entire cooking room.

There were quite a few villagers and children blocking the door, all of them stretched their necks, staring at the green bear's paw that the village chief's mother-in-law was cooking.

"I'm talking about Guta, can you divide your bear's paw..."

"hiss!"

As soon as a girl of about the same age tentatively opened her mouth, Guta jumped up as if her hair was blown, and made a big cross gesture at herself full of hostility.

"Guta, you have hunted three green bear beasts, let us have a taste~" A tall, red-nosed villager scratched his cheek speechlessly.

It was the uncle tailor who helped make the Snow Lion King suit.

"I..." Guta bit the bullet and wanted to say no, but the village chief's mother-in-law pulled her arm.

"Hey, I'm so annoying, I'll share with you, nothing more." Guta turned his back as if angry, without even looking at the villagers.

Everyone laughed.

Not long after, under the guidance of the village chief's mother-in-law, Nia sprinkled coarse salt and flavor-enhancing vanilla powder on the surface of the already golden bear's paw.

The seductive and deep meaty fragrance swept across the entire room in an instant, and everyone who smelled it closed their eyes and enjoyed it.

"As expected of an A-grade ingredient, if it weren't for the trade union's explicit ban on indiscriminate killing, this stuff would have been eaten and extinct long ago."

The retired hunter who didn't know when was lying by the window, with a face that was much older than the village head's mother-in-law, was full of nostalgia.

As a member of professional hunters, he couldn't understand the temperament of those partners who are keen on hunting and exploring.

All I think about all day, besides hunting, is eating.With their barren minds, it is difficult to think of such macro-level things as ecological protection and species extinction.

"Guta, try it..." Nia handed the wooden plate containing the bear's paw to Guta who couldn't wait.

A cold light flashed across the knife and fork in his hand, and half a bear's paw went into his mouth in almost a second.

Before chewing, a meaty aroma with a hint of fruity honey immediately exploded on the taste buds.

There is a dignified meat flavor in the fragrance, and the vanilla powder covered on the surface perfectly neutralizes the sweetness of the smeared honey.

Guta originally wanted to hold it for a while longer, but after all he couldn't bear to chew a few mouthfuls, and then burst into tears.

What a fairy taste! ?

The meat is soft with a sense of tenacity, plump and mellow, full of fragrance.Just chewing casually, most of the bear paws that melted in the mouth disappeared, and a lot of thick gravy oozes out of the soft waxy, which makes people feel distressed and enjoyable.

It’s not like he’s never eaten bear’s paw. When he was a food judge in his previous life, he almost vomited when he ate similar food (overseas), but generally speaking, isn’t the taste of bear’s paw closer to that of completely boiled beef tendon?

Why is the bear paw of the green bear beast so spicy and delicious?And it doesn't taste as bland as a bear's paw.

Rather, is this really a bear's paw?
After being moved, Guta had the urge to rush into the snow-capped mountains in one breath, and hunt another seven or eight green bear beasts.

But reason told him that he couldn't, because this was a serious violation of the regulations of the Hunter Guild, and once he was discovered, he would be deprived of his status as a hunter for life.

"Is it delicious, Guta?" Niya looked at the tearful Guta, her almond eyes narrowed happily.

"Hm... hiccup!" Gobbling half of the bear's paw into his stomach, Guta wiped the corner of his mouth in satisfaction, and gave a thumbs up sincerely.

"When will the next piece be ready?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm not greedy, just let me take a sip."

"It's enough for me to lick the plate!"

Smelling the tempting smell of meat, coupled with the fact that Guta thoroughly interpreted the delicacy of the bear's paw with his expression, the villagers blocking the door wanted to rush into the house for a while.

They also want to taste the dishes made of the legendary high-grade ingredients!
"Everyone wait outside the house, so many people come in, are you trying to crush the old woman's house?" The village head mother-in-law snorted and drove everyone out of the cooking hut.

The village chief had spoken, and the big guys could only retreat angrily one by one.

It's just that the eyeballs are still rolling, no one really stays away from here.

After all, if the cooking is finished in a while, most of them still have to work fast.

The winner eats the meat, the loser... may not even be able to lick the plate!
