Chapter 683 Unexpectedly Delicious
in the kitchen.
Chen Jun threw the noodles into the pot and cooked them for a few minutes. When the noodles floated to the surface, he began to serve the rice.
Not more, not less, just three big bowls!
Pour the freshly fried eel topping on top and add a little sesame oil and MSG, the aroma will instantly become more intense.
Finally, sprinkle some chopped green onion and cover it. A delicious eel noodle is ready.
"I'm starving, I'm starving!"
Lin Yao rushed into the kitchen yelling, and without saying a word, she picked up two bowls of eel noodles and brought them to the dining table.
Once this girl starts to feel greedy, she is not afraid of the heat at all!
But no matter how greedy she was, she would wait until Wang Xia and Chen Jun arrived before she started eating.
"Eat it and try how the noodles taste!" Chen Jun handed over the chopsticks with a smile.
Although Lin Yao was worried that the topping made from yellow eel would be a bit fishy, looking at the tempting eel noodles in front of her, she did not hesitate at all and picked up two pieces of meat and put them into her mouth.
The moment it entered her mouth, Lin Yao tasted a fragrance she had never experienced before!
This smell is unique to fresh eel meat. It has no fishy smell but is rather sweet.
The taste is even better, extremely smooth and tender, yet very chewy.
After chewing twice, Lin Yao opened the door to a new world.
"Wow, this meat is so delicious!"
The fish meat I ate before was always soft, this is the first time I have seen fish meat so chewy.
After taking a bite, Lin Yao had no worries at all. She stirred the bowl a few times with chopsticks to allow the topping and noodles to blend more thoroughly, and then she began to slurp the noodles!
The taste of the noodles is also very good, and the combination of the two is really irresistible.
It’s delicious, really delicious. Lin Yao has never eaten such delicious noodles. Even the green pepper and shredded pork noodles or the fried egg noodles were not as delicious as today’s eel noodles.
It turns out that eel can be cooked so deliciously!
If I had known that this thing was so delicious, I should have gone to the river to catch some when my family was in financial difficulty.
"Huh...Huh~ It's delicious, but a little hot!"
Lin Yao was eating while mumbling, and she looked a little funny.
Chen Jun looked at the unpresentable Lin Yao, smiled without saying anything, then lowered his head and started eating.
It must be said that the taste of this wild eel is really good, even Chen Jun found it a little unexpected.
The traps I set last night should be full. I'll collect them when I get off work and see if I've caught the wild duck.
"Brother, this eel noodles is so delicious. Let's continue eating eel noodles tonight~" Lin Yao said vaguely.
"Okay, I'll make you eel noodles tonight!"
......
courtyard.
At this time, Xu Damao was standing by the sink brushing his teeth. He was so envious when he saw Chen Jun and the other two eating with their heads down.
"Tsk, are these eel noodles made from yellow eels really that delicious?"
Just as he was thinking about it, the second uncle Liu Haizhong also came out with a towel and a toothbrush. Seeing Xu Damao looking straight at the Chen family, he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.
"Xu Damao, what are you looking at?"
Xu Damao was startled out of nowhere. Seeing that the person taking the photo of him was Liu Haizhong, he signaled him with his eyes to look towards Chen's house.
"Second uncle, have you seen it? Chen Jun has made delicious food again."
When Liu Haizhong heard this, he couldn't help swallowing.
"Do you need to tell me? I just smelled it." Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Damao with dissatisfaction: "Hey, we can't compare with Chen Jun. He is a leader and we are workers. His family is willing to eat meat early in the morning, but we can't do that."
In Liu Haizhong's view, a leader is a leader, and it is natural for him to eat better than them, otherwise his position as leader would be in vain.
"It's not meat! Uh... it's meat, but it's not pork, mutton or beef." Xu Damao spit out the foam in his mouth, rinsed his mouth and continued, "It's eel meat. Chen Jun made eel noodles. The fragrance we smelled was him stir-frying the eel."
"Eel??"
Liu Haizhong was stunned at first and subconsciously thought that Xu Damao was talking nonsense.
Yellow eels are not a rare thing in Beijing, especially in the rivers outside the city, where there are many of them. However, you have rarely seen anyone catching yellow eels to eat.
What does this mean?
This means that eels are not delicious. If they tasted a little bit better, there would be a lot of people going to the river to catch eels.
Just like Yan Bugui in the front yard, his fishing skills are very poor, but he still goes fishing frequently. Even if he comes back empty-handed, you have rarely seen him bring home eels.
Even Yan Bugui doesn't catch it, which shows how unpalatable this eel is.
"Really? Don't try to fool me this early in the morning." Liu Haizhong said in disbelief, "A few years ago, your uncle caught yellow eels a few times, but when your aunt cooked them and served them on the table, your uncle took a bite and vomited, saying that it smelled fishy. He almost threw the pot away."
"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you? Lin Yao told me so herself!"
Xu Damao pointed at the Chen family and said, "If you don't believe me, go to their house and take a look. It must be eel noodles. Those yellow eels were caught by Chen Jun when he was fishing last night."
"Brother, we have agreed that we will have eel noodles for dinner tonight."
As luck would have it, Lin Yao's voice came from the room.
When Liu Haizhong heard that Xu Damao was not lying, his expression became serious.
It really is an eel!
Could it be that the eels have changed in the past two years and are not as fishy as before?
"Uncle, I plan to catch some eels in the river and make some eel noodles in the evening to see if they are really that delicious." Xu Damao said with a grin.
The fragrance wafting in the yard almost drove Xu Damao crazy, and he wished he could catch the eels right now.
"Hey, that won't do!" Liu Haizhong waved his hand to stop him: "It's fine for you to catch yellow eels, but don't be impulsive and make eel noodles. If the noodles are inedible, then they will be wasted!"
“It’s shameful to waste food!”
"Then let's try frying a plate first!" Xu Damao felt that what Liu Haizhong said made sense, and immediately changed his mind.
Liu Haizhong nodded, washed up quickly, and hurried home.
"Liu Guangfu, Liu Guangtian, I'm going to give you two a task. Bring back a few kilograms of yellow eels after school today."
The two brothers who had just woken up became interested as soon as they heard it.
Going to the river to catch eels, the two brothers’ favorite thing is going to the river to catch fish, because they know where there are eels.
The brothers' pocket money was almost gone, so they could take this opportunity to secretly skip class and go fishing. There was still some bait left from the one Chen Jun had given them, so it would be no problem for them to catch three to five kilograms of fish.
Neither of them was as favored as Liu Guangqi at home, so they had to find ways to make pocket money on their own, and they would not make too much each time to avoid being found out by their parents.
"Okay, I will ensure that I complete the task!" Liu Guangfu straightened his back and saluted Liu Haizhong.
"Yes, Not Bad."
Liu Haizhong really enjoyed this salute, feeling like he was a superior.
