The Film Emperor’s Daily Live Cooking Broadcast-Chapter 71 - Live Broadcast : Sampling the Strange – Part 2

Ch71 – Live Broadcast : Sampling the Strange – Part 2

These variant water monster crabs were too big. If you wanted to steam them whole, you’d have to use a customized cauldron, which was troublesome to handle. It was better to chop them directly to make spicy crabs.

Maybe it was because the water quality of the 19th planet was quite good, but the body of these water monster crabs was not as dirty as the previous Earth’s hairy crabs, their digestive systems were quite intrepid. When they dissected the crabs during their testing by the beach, they found almost no dirt or grime within the crabs. They could be ready for cooking with a simple wash and scrub. There was also no need to soak them in water to make them spit up silt like in his previous life.

Seeing Ruan Tang take out those big and hideous water monsters, the audience was obviously frightened. Although they did not have the residents of the 19^th planet’s deep-rooted fear of these water monsters, they also felt that anything that looked like these couldn’t be eaten.

[Walking by the river 2333: Doesn’t this thing look too ugly? Is it really edible?]

[Meow star: Let’s believe in the anchor! If the anchor says this can be eaten then this can be eaten! Didn’t that fish before also look ugly, but it turned out delicious, right?]

[ID18220102: What the commenter above said makes sense!]

Ruan Tang opened the crab shell and removed the crab gills and abdomen. Then, he picked up the special kitchen knife, and cut the body into eight pieces. He also cut off the eight legs and two large claws. He took a small brush and scrubbed the water monster crabs very carefully. Turns out that this water monster crab was a female crab. After cutting it open, you can clearly see the very ample orange-yellow crab coral. The amount was particularly large. Ruan Tang could just imagine how delicious it would be after it’s been cooked.

Ginger, garlic, and red pepper were all chopped into pieces.

He put the chopped monster crab into a specially-designed steamer and let it steam for ten minutes. As the temperature rose, the crab began to change color at a speed visible to the naked eye. After the water monster crabs were steamed, Ruan Tang cut the crab legs down the middle with a pair of scissors. This was so that when they were stir-fried later, they would absorb more flavor.

Next, he took out a pan and sautéed the minced ginger and garlic together. He added red pepper and peppercorns. A strong spicy scent intermingled with the smell of the minced garlic and spewed out. The He brothers’ mouths started to water. However, those neighbors and garrison troops who hadn’t tasted natural foods before weren’t able to adapt to such a strong smell and they took a few steps back. Some people couldn’t help but sneeze.

Ruan Tang poured the monster crab into the pan and started frying it vigorously. After a while, fine beads of sweat started to dot his forehead. The monster crab was so big that it took real effort to fry it. But as he stir-fried, the irritatingly spicy scent started to have this unidentifiable sweet scent.

The neighbors looked at each other, wondering who it was that gulped. The sound had been astonishingly loud.

Seeing that the water monster crab was almost done, Ruan Tang finally poured in some soy sauce, chili sauce and doubanjiang, and stir-fried for a while longer. A plate of great smelling, great looking and great tasting spicy crab was done.

“The spicy crabs are ready. Let’s try it.”

[Qi Jiu mo ran: How do you eat this?]

[The April Turtledove flicks its feathers: Maybe we eat the meat inside? But the shell is so hard QAQ and there are still hard thorns on the shell …]

[Miao Miao loves to eat all the dishes of the anchor: my teeth are gonna fall out … TAT]

Although Ruan Tang’s audience had the eagerness of genuine foodies, when they encountered this monster, they were at a loss as to how to eat it.

When Ruan Tang saw the situation, he picked up a crab leg and cut off the shell little by little with a pair of scissors. He then took the crab meat out. The red and white crab meat was gently placed onto a plate. Like a top-grade lychee, it was smooth and lustrous. The steam, together with the delicious aroma grew thicker and thicker, drawing in the audience. This time, they didn’t need Ruan Tang to instruct them. The audience all rushed up to eat.

[I’m not a strawberry: Damn! This meat is so fresh, tender, soft, fragrant and delicious!!!!!!!!!!!]

[Baoliang Grandma: Yeah, the taste is super delicious and spicy. Just what kind of ingredient is this? Why is it so delicious?]

[No one stands at dusk with me: Although I look ugly, but I taste delicious-ha ha ha ha ha]

The crab fried by Ruan Tang with the spicy oil looked extraordinarily bright. The shell was wrapped in a rich sauce and when the shell was peeled off, it was full of delicious crab meat. Ruan Tang had stir-fried this crab over high heat so that it would absorb the flavor. It tasted spicy and tasty, and because it was a live crab, the meat was tight, pliable and smooth. Its texture was particularly good. Everyone couldn’t stop eating.

Ruan Tang also took out the main part of the crab that had been cut into pieces. It was full of orange-red crab coral. Covered with red spicy oil, it glittered under the light of the sun.

“This is crab coral. It’s the best part of crab. Let’s try it.”

[Love Potion: Oh! Delish! Delish! Delish! So so good!]

Compared with the crab meat which was more clear and sweet, the taste of the yellow crab meat could be described as thick, rich and heavy. A single bite fills your mouth with rich crab fat. It tasted a bit similar to hard-boiled egg yolk, but without the dryness. Biting down on it, juice would ooze out and there was only one flavor on the tip of the tongue—delicious!

[Can’t stop hugging trees: ah ah ah I’m dead, I’m dead. What legendary ingredient is this crab coral!]

Because they had realized the monster crab’s benefits, everyone took another look at these crabs and felt that they looked a lot friendlier. Although they looked a little strange, they were still cute.

[Salted Fish was originally fish: I thought it was ugly at first, but taking a closer look at it now, the little thing looks pretty unique!]

[Baby Yuan: Although its shell is very hard, but the meat is full of umami! ~ It just goes to show that we shouldn’t judge ingredients by their appearance! Anchor, Anchor, is this thing called crab a new ingredient restored by the Academy of Sciences? I took a look but didn’t see it in the shopping site.]

“You could say that this is a new ingredient introduced by the Academy of Sciences, but it’s not restored, but rather a special product of the 19th planet.” Ruan Tang said with a smile.

[Ylrenjing: specialty? Isn’t the 19^th planet notoriously remote and backwards?]

[Lonely Mountain Xiao: Can’t remote areas have specialties? ╮ (╯_╰) ╭ Will this crab be sold in the shopping site in the future? I don’t want to eat such a delicious food only once!]

“Yes, everyone, rest assured that all the ingredients broadcasted today are special products of the 19th planet and that after coordinating with the government departments here, will be put on the shopping site. Please wait patiently.” Ruan Tang answered the audience. Afterwards, he started to make the next dish.

“What I’m going to make next is cheese lobster.” Lobsters were easier to pick up than crabs. After carefully cleaning them with a small brush, he cut them in half, then cut off their claws and crushed them.

The appearance of the lobster was actually a little uglier than the crab. Its face was fiercer and its shell was such a deep dark red as to almost be black. It appeared extremely tough and fierce. It made the viewers tense up.

[Flowers are confusing: How do these ingredients get uglier and uglier …]

[Maiden Star Chaser YOGA: But they are delicious! This fully illustrates that when the God of the Universe closes a door, he will open a window. Truly inspirational [Er Ha] [Er Ha]]

Ruan Tang saw it and couldn’t help laughing.

He sprinkled a bit of salt evenly over the lobster. Then he brushed it with minced garlic mixed with oil. After, he spread a thick layer of cheese over it and then wrapped it with tin foil. He put it in the oven and let it bake for twenty minutes.

While waiting, Ruan Tang took out the scallops and started to prep them. These scallops were almost as large as both palms of an adult man. It was larger than the scallop king on Earth from his previous life. These could be called as the true king of scallops.

Ruan Tang also used a small brush to clean the shell of the scallops, and then pushed the knife into the gap to pry it open. Obviously, he had underestimated the strength of this variant alien scallop. He exhausted all his energy and made every effort, but the scallop still didn’t budge…

[Always: The anchor’s face is flushed. It’s so pitiful hahahahahahahahaha]

[A’Chuang: Hahaha, I know I shouldn’t laugh, but I can’t help it!]

[KK Qi: Anchor, come on, refuel! Hahahahaha]

Seeing the audience’s teasing, Ruan Tang’s face turned even redder, and the live chat became a sea of ​​”hahahaha”s.

This was unscientific! It was clear that He Yun Chen opened these easily when they were conducting the testing by the beach earlier!

Then, the audience saw a pair of hands suddenly come in on the live broadcast screen. It took the knife and scallop from Ruan Tang’s hand, and did the same thing as Ruan Tang. The scallop that Ruan Tang had struggled with was easily opened……

[Roberta: Amazing! Anyone know who was that heroic rescuer that saved our anchor from his misery?]

[Southern Arbor: It’s been pried open! Finally, it can be used, hahaha]

Ruan Tang pulled a long face and took the scallop that had been pried open from He Yun Chen’s hands. He took the meaty half, and pried the meat from the shell away. He removed the black viscera and yellow eyelash-shaped parotid glands behind the scallops and rinsed them off. He sprinkled them with scallion-ginger juice, salt, and a little pepper, and then allowed it to marinate for a while.

He then took out a fry pan and fried some minced garlic until it turned fragrant. Afterwards, he scooped it out and set it aside in a bowl.

Ruan Tang drizzled the scallops with soy sauce and fried minced garlic. He put it in a steamer and steamed on high heat for five minutes. After a sprinkling of green onions, this garlic scallop was completed. It is a pity that vermicelli noodles hadn’t been researched yet by the Academy of Sciences, otherwise the garlic scallops with vermicelli noodles would have been even more delicious to taste.

Due to the large size of the scallops, even a custom steamer could only steam two. In the center of the light gray shell was a white and fresh seafood meat. It looked like a cloud soaked in brown sauce and surrounded by garlic and green onions. It looked very alluring.

Ruan Tang cut the meat into four small pieces and then invited the audience to taste it.

[Anxi Ruoqiang: Delicious, delicious, delicious! Why is this scallop so delicious?!!]

[Twilight Drinker: The key is that it doesn’t seem to be difficult to do. I think even a kitchen killer like me can try it!]

The texture of the scallops was quite pliable, like mushrooms, but it was chewier and sweeter, with a bit of salty flavor unique to seafood.

[Ba ba ba: I never knew there were so many delicious specialties on the 19^th planet? I live so close, and suddenly I have a sudden urge to buy a spaceship ticket and fly over …]

[Kitty choi: Above commenter, you’ve suddenly awakened me from a dream. I’m on the 23rd planet and I could fly over there in less than an hour. I’m going to buy a spaceship ticket now! I want to buy a bunch of scallops and go home and eat!!!]

Ruan Tang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “These ingredients have just passed the safety test and have not yet been officially released. Even if you come to the 19th planet, you will not be able to eat them. Please wait patiently …”

After testing that these monsters were edible and safe ingredients, He Yun Yi had contacted the local government to prepare them to be promoted throughout the Empire as a local specialty. He Yun Yi, as the dean of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, had great credibility and authority. These water monsters had troubled the local government for many years. Now they not only had a solution, but they also seemed to have a source of income for their planet. Naturally, they strongly supported it. However, some specific details needed to be further discussed. It might take a few days before it could be released to the public.

The 19^th planet has always had a big problem — that is, brain drain. Those young people with good physiques almost couldn’t wait for adulthood to leave here and find work elsewhere, and very few people were willing to come back. So even though they had produced several popular people, their planet remained barren and backwards.

But it was likely that once the production agreement for these monsters were completed, because the capture of these monsters couldn’t be done by ordinary people, it would inevitably increase the demand for highly qualified talents. Aside from that, this creature was unique to their 19th planet. It would certainly secure a high price, and with the higher price they could provide better benefits, which would lead to more talent staying and their planet developing.

It could be said that as long as they held a firm grasp on this industry, their 19th planet held a firm grasp on the road to success.

The eyes of the leaders of the local government burned hotter than ever.
