The Local Lazy Man System

After breakfast the next morning, Ye Rongrong took the bucket containing the snails yesterday to the yard, sat on a chair, and Ye Rongrong pinched the snail tails with vise.

The snails cannot be sucked if the tail of the snails is not cut off. Southerners like to suck snails instead of picking them out with toothpicks.

Of course, the snail tail is cut off to make it easier to eat snails, and it is even more delicious when fried.

There is also a size requirement for cutting the snail tail. It should not be too small. If it is too small, not only the taste will not get in, but it will not be able to suck it out.

You must know that eating snails is better than the word "sucking". For those with good skills, you just ate the first one, and the second one has already finished...

Therefore, the size of the snail tail is very important. Under normal circumstances, the mouth that is one third of the whole body of the snail is the best.

In order to pick up the snails, Ye Rongrong went to a small shop in the village to buy a pair of needle-nose pliers. Using the needle-nose pliers to cut the snails was much more efficient than burning the snails.

It's just that when Ye Rongrong was a child, he used burning tongs to clamp. The speed was very slow, but it was very laborious. After all, burning tongs were much larger and heavier than needle-nose pliers.

As for why people in the past liked to cut snails with burning tongs instead of needle-nose pliers, Ye Rongrong was not very clear.

Perhaps it is a habit. Perhaps at the earliest time, people did not have tools such as needle-nose pliers, and burning tongs appeared many years earlier than this needle-nose pliers. People have been using burning tongs to cut snails. This generation Passed down from generation to generation, it becomes a habit.

Even now, there are still many people in the village who like to use fire tongs. They have formed a habit and find it easy to use fire tongs.

Ye Rongrong was very fast. It took an hour to cut all the snails, and handed them to Aunt Wang, who asked her to wash the cut snails. Ye Rongrong walked out of the yard to pick some green peppers in the field. .

If the tail of the snail is cut off, the snail is almost dead. If you want the freshest snail, you have to fry it quickly, and put some green peppers in it, which can remove some of the fishy and muddy smell of the snail and make the snail more delicious.

Stir-fried snails are actually very simple. Heat the pot on high heat, pour more oil into the pot, wait for the oil to heat up and make a crackling sound, put some green peppers in and fry, then put the cleaned snails into the pot...

In this way, the spicy taste can be tasted quickly. Stir fry a few times. After the snails are seven or eight mature, add salt and other seasonings, pour in the rice wine brewed by the farmer, and continue to simmer for five or six minutes. The fried snails are ready. , A fragrant smell came to the nostrils.

For lunch, I deliberately moved the dining table to the front yard. In such a cold winter, eating under the sun is also a very appropriate thing.

The dishes at noon are very rich. In the middle is a large plate of fried snails cooked by Ye Rongrong himself. On the side, dried plums and vegetables with braised pork, fried beans, braised crucian carp, boiled black fish, steamed field crab...

"smell good!"

Before the dishes were ready, Ye Rongrong couldn't wait to pick up a snail and suck it up. He hadn't eaten this snail for a long time, and Ye Rongrong really missed the taste.

In Ye Rongrong's opinion, the taste of this snail is better than that of crab.

It's just that snails survive by eating dirty things in the river, and there are more parasites in them. This makes many people want to eat snails, but they dare not eat more.

In fact, as long as the soil inside the snails is cleaned, when they are burned, there is basically no major problem as long as they are cooked.

After all, many parasites cannot survive for a few minutes at a high temperature of about 100 degrees.

"tasty!"

Ye Rongrong took a sip into his mouth, and immediately there was a scent, and the spicy taste came from his mouth, it was really delicious.

"Uncle, I want to eat too!"

Xiao Mengmeng pulled the corner of Laye Glory's clothes and said.

"it is good!"

Ye Rongrong picked up a snail with chopsticks and gave it to Xiaomengmeng.

"Thank you uncle!"

Xiao Mengmeng took the snail given by Ye Rongrong with her small hand, imitating what Ye Rongrong did just now, and sucked the snail with her mouth!

Didn't suck it out!

I sucked it harder and it still didn't come out.

"uncle……"

Xiao Mengmeng looked at Ye Rongrong asking for help and said.

This snail is really hard to suck out the snail meat!

"Uncle, I'll give you another snail, and you can learn how to suck this snail with uncle!"

Ye Rongrong gave Xiaomengmeng another snail.

The soup in the snail just now was sucked up by Xiao Mengmeng, and the snail without soup is more difficult to suck.

"Look at how uncle sucks snails!"

Ye Rongrong said, and taught Xiao Mengmeng the simplest way to suck snails.

There are skills in eating snails, especially for those who eat snails for the first time. The easiest way is to put the tail of the snails by the mouth, suck it hard, and the delicious juice comes out, and the snail meat is also sucked Pulled a bit to block the opening in the tail.

Then turn the snail over the head, put the head into the mouth and suck it, and the whole snail meat will go into the mouth.

Therefore, when clamping snails, the tail should be clamped off more, so that it is easy to suck the snails.

Of course, for people like Ye Rongrong who often eat snails, they have already developed the habit of conditioned reflex.

Just suck on the head of the snail, and the snail meat can be sucked out.

Of course, the premise is that the snails must be cooked. If you are not familiar with the snails, you will not be able to suck them out.

"do you understand?"

Ye Rongrong looked at Xiao Mengmeng and asked.

"Ok!"

Xiao Mengmeng couldn't wait to put the tail of the snail into her mouth with her hand, suck it hard like Ye Rongrong, then turned the snail around, sucked on the head of the snail, and the snail came out.

"It's delicious, it's really delicious, uncle, I want more!"

A piece of snail meat was eaten, Xiao Mengmeng pestered Ye Rongrong and ate snails.

"Wait, your Aunt Qingqing and the others come over to eat together."

Ye Rongrong said.

"Then I'll ask my aunt and them to have dinner."

Xiao Mengmeng looked at the big plate of snails in the middle reluctantly, and then ran to the backyard kitchen.

"I don't know if Dudu is so old, she will be so sensible!"

Looking at the figure of Xiao Mengmeng going away, Ye Rongrong couldn't help thinking far away.

...

"Aunt Ouyang, you don't eat these snails with toothpicks, you have to suck them with your mouth."

Because Ouyang Ziyan and her daughters live in the north, the northerners fry the snails. The snails don't cut their tails. They are washed and fried, and they are eaten with toothpicks.

This is the same as eating spicy snails in the south, they are picked with toothpicks.

This may be related to living customs. People in the south think that the tail of the snail is the place where the snail excretes. This position is the most unclean, so it should be cut off.

People in the north don't think much of it. They think that the snail meat is clean and the meat at the tail is also very delicious, so they don't think it is necessary to cut it off.

"How can you eat this snail without a toothpick?"

Nangong Ziyan looked at Xiao Mengmeng with a smile and asked.

Because of the large number of people, Ye Rongrong's family always eats at a large round table. In this way, all the family members can eat together. For guards like Nangong Ziyan, Ye Rongrong let them eat at the same table as him.

"This snail should be eaten like this!"

Xiao Mengmeng demonstrated the method Ye Rongrong taught her to Nangong Ziyan and the others.

Children like to be teachers and teach others what they have just learned.

"Let me try!"

Li Yu caught a snail and imitated Xiao Mengmeng's action just now and sucked it up. After several consecutive sucks, the snail was not sucked out.

"Auntie Li Yu, you are so stupid, you can't even learn such a simple thing!"

Xiao Mengmeng looked at Li Yu with disdain and said.

Such a simple thing, I learned it as soon as I was a child, and Aunt Li Yu is so grown up that she can't even suck out snails.

"Halo, I was made fun of by you little girl."

Li Yu suddenly said depressedly.

It's too embarrassing for me to be despised by a six or seven-year-old yellow-haired girl.

"Hehehe, Li Yu, it seems that you have to find a boyfriend quickly, or you will be made fun of by Xiao Mengmeng."

Ye Rongrong looked at Li Yu with a smile and said.

"What does this have to do with finding a boyfriend?"

Li Yu asked incomprehensibly.

"Because sucking snails is a test of lung capacity!"

Ye Rongrong said jokingly.

"Lung capacity? Is my lung capacity good?"

Li Yu still didn't understand the meaning of Ye Rongrong's words.

"Li Yu, stop asking!"

Nangong Ziyan understood the meaning of Ye Rongrong's words, blushing and hurriedly whispered to Li Yu.

This silly girl is really a blank slate. The boss's words are so clear that she can't even understand them.

"Honey, don't make fun of Li Yu if you eat fish."

Liu Qingqing put a piece of boiled fish on Ye Rongrong's bowl and said.

It was a relief for Li Yu.

...

"It smells so good! Are you eating?"

Ye Xianghai walked into the yard, shrugged his nose, swallowed and said.

The food at Ye Glory's house is more delicious than his own. Even Ye Xianghai, who has already eaten his lunch, feels hungry again.

"Old village chief, you came just in time, sit down and eat together!"

Ye Rongrong said immediately.

"No need, I've eaten it, and besides, you all have almost enough to eat."

Ye Xianghai shook his head and said.

Although Ye Xianghai is very greedy, but Ye Rongrong's family has almost finished eating, so I am always embarrassed to say that I want to sit down and eat.

"I wanted to drink just now. I didn't have anyone to drink with me. I felt boring. You came here, old village chief. This is the snail I fried today, and I haven't finished half of it. I'm making a plate of peanuts. It’s just two good appetizers, how about it? Let’s have a pinch!”

Ye Rongrong looked at Ye Xianghai and said.

"There is wine to drink, of course."

Ye Xianghai is a comrade who has been tested by alcohol, his eyes lit up when he heard about drinking.

Ye Rongrong took the plate of unfinished snails, asked Aunt Wang to bring over a plate of peanuts, and went to the stone table next to him to have a drink with the old village head Ye Xianghai.

In hot summer, people like to drink cold beer to feel comfortable. In winter, people like to drink white wine to warm up.

You must know that in the cold northern countryside, many people survived the cold winter by drinking this liquor in ancient times.
