Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Surprised Chapter 148: Chapter 148 Surprised To make the snails tasty, the fishy sll must first be removed.
Su Yunjin found a pair of scissors and cut open the tails of the snails one by one. She then poured oil and wine into the basin and washed them again, which made the snails cleaner and easier to rid of the fishy sll inside.
After completing these tasks, Su Yunjin began to wash the wok, pour oil, and stir-fry the snails.
She dumped the minced garlic into the wok, along with slices of ginger and dried chili peppers, frying them together to bring out a fragrant aroma. Since Su Yunjin was making garlic-flavored snails, she definitely needed to add more chopped garlic.
As a result, Su Yunjin cut a lot of garlic. Slling the fragrance of garlic from the wok, Su Yunjin then poured the prepared snails into the wok to start stir-frying.
When the snails were almost done, Su Yunjin added water to the wok and let the snails simr slowly. This thod not only allowed the snails to absorb the flavors, making them taste delicious, but it also got rid of the parasites inside them. Snails are tasty indeed, but they harbor many parasites. The most crucial part of eating snails is to make sure they are thoroughly cooked, which is how the parasites inside are killed.
Su Yunjin knew there were no spices at ho, which were essential for cooking snails. When she was picking snails by the river, she found perilla leaves and picked so. Cooking snails with perilla not only enhanced the flavor but also suppressed the fishy sll.
Su Ningxiu, the second sister, was tending the fire under the stove. When the water in the wok was about to dry up, she slled the tempting aroma of the cooked snails.
Swallowing her saliva unconsciously, Su Ningxiu looked at Su Yunjin, who was stir-frying the snails in the wok, and said in surprise, “Little sister, it slls so good!”
Su Yunjin claid she could make the snails delicious, which Su Ningxiu had doubted. But now, slling the waves of tantalizing fragrance coming from the wok, Su Ningxiu was starting to believe it.
It seed that the little sister could indeed make the snails taste good.
“Second sister, wait for to reduce the sauce and give it another stir, then we can eat,” said Su Yunjin, as she continued to stir-fry the snails, adding the last bits of seasoning needed before serving.
With the addition of chopped green onions and perilla, the fragrance beca even more appealing. Unable to wait any longer, Su Ningxiu was eager to taste. Su Yunjin picked up a piece of the finished snail with chopsticks and offered it to Su Ningxiu, smiling, “Second sister, here, give it a try and see how it tastes?”
After trying it, Su Ningxiu found there was no fishy taste of the snails, only a garlic flavor that made it especially delicious. After finishing one, she nodded repeatedly, “Delicious, delicious, little sister, I couldn’t imagine that the snails you made would taste so good! Mother and father will surely say they’re delicious after they try them.”
“Second sister, are they that good?” Gu Ya walked in. Su Yunjin smiled and picked another piece of snail for Gu Ya, “Husband, would you like to try?”
Gu Ya walked over to Su Yunjin, leaned down, and ate the snail from the chopsticks. Su Yunjin looked at Gu Ya expectantly, “Husband, how is it? How does it taste?”
“Brother-in-law, don’t you also think the snails little sister cooked are delicious?” Su Ningxiu asked Gu Ya before he could answer.
After eating, Gu Ya looked at Su Yunjin with a hint of surprise in his eyes. Although he hadn’t yet comnted on whether it was tasty, his expression revealed that he too found the snails Su Yunjin made delicious.
Receiving approval from both Gu Ya and her second sister, Su Ningxiu, Su Yunjin was overjoyed and helped herself to another piece to taste. Compared to the garlic snails she had in the modern world, Su Yunjin felt the taste of the snails she prepared today fell short. However, even though they were not as delicious as those she had eaten in the modern tis, overall, the flavor of the garlic snails she made today was still good.
Su Yunjin was satisfied with her work.
