Surviving Endless Disasters

After the turtle meat was skewered and roasted on the fire, Wen Zheng returned to the cave and looked at the boiling shell pot. The mist rushed out from the gap, and the turtle eggs cooked in it floated up. Tuantuan couldn't wait any longer, and urged Wen Zheng when he saw him coming in.

Wen Zheng was also very curious about the taste of turtle eggs. He took out a pair of long bamboo chopsticks and put the cooked turtle eggs into a bamboo tube filled with cold water.

When the turtle eggs were no longer so hot, Wen Zheng took out all the cooled turtle eggs.

Tuantuan ate some food and drank some water, and recovered a lot of strength. He trotted over impatiently, aimed his beak at the turtle eggs and pecked them down.

Wen Zheng immediately smelled the fishy smell coming from the turtle eggs. He looked at Tuantuan, and the bird's beak stretched directly into the hole he had pecked, eating with relish.

The smell is a bit strong, but it should taste good, Wen Zheng thought as he watched Tuantuan happily eating.

He picked up a turtle egg and knocked it on the edge of the bamboo tube a few times, and immediately the egg white and yolk that had not yet solidified flowed out.

It's not cooked yet? Wen Zheng couldn't believe it, so he peeled the eggshell completely and looked inside to make sure it was not cooked yet.

He glanced at Tuantuan who was already eating the second one, and Wen Zheng took a bite without giving up. The sticky taste was fishy and salty, and he couldn't accept it at all. He spit out the little bit in his mouth, and then rinsed his mouth with water until the feeling disappeared.

He left these uncooked eggs to Tuantuan, and there were still four uncooked raw turtle eggs left.

It is necessary to understand how to eat turtle eggs. Eggs are nothing more than fried eggs, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, and steamed eggs. Let's try them one by one.

But before that, we have to go and see the turtle skewers roasting on the fire. Fill the shell pot for boiling eggs with water, and Wen Zheng puts the first raw turtle egg in it. He wants to see how long it will take to solidify.

Slowly turn the turtle skewers over the fire, brushing some lard and chili powder.

The peppers picked back were left outside, and they couldn't stand the hot sun in a few days, so Wen Zheng ground them into chili powder.

Tuan Tuan ate all the unsolidified turtle eggs, and he had enough strength to fly down from the cave, and then ran to Wen Zheng, staring at the roasted skewers intently. The greedy look made Wen Zheng pick him up and rub the soft hair on his head with his hands.

As the roasting time got longer, the fragrance began to appear in the air. When it was finally ready to eat, Wen Zheng quickly divided it into two portions.

Considering that turtles are animals living in the ocean, Wen Zheng didn't add any salt. Now when he ate it, it was indeed salty, and the taste was better than he imagined.

Unlike turtle eggs, the fishy smell in turtle meat is very light, all suppressed by the seasoning.

The taste of turtle meat is completely different from wild boar meat, and it is more like firm beef, with a very delicious taste. The creatures in the ocean are particularly delicious, making Wen Zheng regret not catching two more.

The skewers were eaten quickly, and Wen Zheng and Tuantuan were not full yet. When Tuantuan wanted to eat more, Wen Zheng pointed to the bottom of the smoking rack, where four turtle legs were stewed in the soil.

There was still a lot of time before stewing, and Wen Zheng remembered the turtle eggs that he had not yet studied, and took Tuantuan back to the cave.

The first one continued to cook, and the remaining three eggs, one was steamed into egg custard, and compared with fried eggs, fried eggs use less oil, so I fried them first to try, and if it doesn’t work, I can only scramble them.

Find a bamboo bowl, crack one of the turtle eggs, the raw smell is more serious, stir it quickly with chopsticks, Wen Zheng added some sea salt to it and continued to mix it, then added some water, put it in the shell of the boiled egg and started steaming.

Take out another shell pot and heat it on the fire. Tuan Tuan, who was standing next to it, finally couldn't help his curiosity and touched the raw turtle eggs that were not cracked next to it. Just a light touch, one of them rolled on the stove.

Tuan Tuan ran to stop it, but the more anxious he was, the more trouble he made, and the faster it rolled, and it fell into the burning fire in the stove with a plop.

Wen Zheng, who was watching this scene quietly, couldn't help laughing, and got a wronged look from Tuan Tuan.

Chapter 54 Finally, there was only one turtle egg left, and Wen Zheng put it in a shell pot with only a little lard and fried it.

Maybe it was because there was too little oil, or maybe it was because there was too little liquid for one turtle egg, the egg liquid was all stuck to the inside of the shell pot, and it still solidified very slowly.

After waiting for a long time, Wen Zheng gave up on the fried egg.

He opened the lid of the steamed egg and gently touched the bamboo tube floating in the water. The egg liquid inside continued to shake and failed to solidify.

After taking Tuantuan away who wanted to try it, Wen Zheng walked out of the cave disappointed and angry, and pulled out the four legs buried in the soil.

Apart from the leaves that wrapped it, Wen Zheng cut the skin of the turtle meat with a knife and ate the tender turtle meat inside.

The moisture was completely locked in the meat. Compared with roasted ones, stewed ones were more tender and easy to bite.

There was no seasoning added either. The meat itself was a little salty. Wen Zheng felt unsatisfied after eating a few bites, so he dipped it in chili powder and ate it again.

Even though the four thick turtle legs tasted very good, Wen Zheng's stomach was full after eating half of them.

Tuantuan ate a whole one, and Wen Zheng could only feel ashamed of Tuantuan's increasing appetite.

If Tuantuan hadn't learned to hunt and would fly back from the mountains with snakes and bamboo rats every now and then, Wen Zheng really wouldn't be able to support him.

After drinking mint water and resting for a while, the turtle meat was particularly satisfying, but Wen Zheng was worried about the failure of making turtle eggs.

Just like looking at Tuantuan, they didn't need any words or actions at this moment, and they understood each other's meaning, and then went to the beach to dig some turtle eggs back.

Wen Zheng was trying to figure out how to cook them, while Tuantuan hadn't eaten enough.

Each turtle can lay hundreds of eggs, and thinking of this made Wen Zheng feel less guilty. He took a few eggs from each sand pit, and took all the sand pits, and there would be hundreds of turtle eggs.

After taking them out of the sand pits, Wen Zheng didn't forget to smooth all the sand pits again.

Putting down the bamboo basket containing turtle eggs, Wen Zheng went directly to the earth stove, and the steamed egg custard had not yet solidified.

Without any hope, Wen Zheng took out the turtle eggs that were being cooked. After cracking them, there was still sticky egg liquid inside. It had been cooked for several hours and it was still like this. Wen Zheng could only accept the fact that the turtle eggs were not cooked.

Then the newly brought back turtle eggs had only one way to go, which was to fry them. For such a long time on the deserted island, Wen Zheng used boiling, roasting, and stewing to cook. Although he knew that stir-frying was delicious, he had never done it because he didn't have sturdy kitchen utensils.

The shell pot used had actually been replaced several times, but it couldn't withstand the long-term burning and cracks appeared.

The unsolidified turtle eggs were not wasted, and they were all placed in front of Tuantuan, who ate them happily.

Wen Zheng was completely against the turtle eggs. Even if he might scrap another shell pot, he would try it.

Before frying the eggs, add some more firewood to the earthen stove. Wang Chaidu was holding it in his hand. When he was about to put it in, he noticed that it was almost full. Wen Zheng needed to clean the earthen stove first.

Use a bamboo pole to reach into the earthen stove and sweep out the ash from the burning grass and wood. In fact, there are more wood that has not been completely burned.

Wen Zheng was covered in dirt by the ash, but he still tried to stretch his arm inside, and then a round object rolled out.

The small black ball was very familiar in size. Wen Zheng picked it up from the ground and knocked it gently on the earthen stove, making a crisp sound like an eggshell cracking.
