Chapter 107 Wonderful craftsmanship, delicious taste on the tip of your tongue!
Xu Yang weighed the black fish and it was about twenty-four pounds.

It's really a big one.

A black fish this big is enough for seven or eight adults to eat.

This kind of fish should be eaten fresh. If you can't finish it in one meal and put it aside and eat it the next day, the taste will be much worse.

Seeing that the students from the Agricultural University were still watching over the fields, Xu Yang decided to invite the four working college students to eat fish.

You can't really treat others as free labor.

Reciprocity.

After his cooking skills improved, cooking fish became no longer difficult for Xu Yang.

When the fish was almost processed and they started to fillet it, Xu Yang contacted the four college students via WeChat and asked them to come over.

When Xu Kai, Liu Wu and other three found out about this, they were extremely excited.

"And this is a good thing!"

"The owner invites us to eat fish, so we have to go!"

"Is this the one he caught today? I saw it all. The video is really popular!"

"We can taste it too!"

"I have to show off when I go back to school!"

The four of them happily came to the farm from the experimental field.

It is normal for farmers to treat each other to a meal. The four people helped Xu Yang for two or three hours that day, and based on the labor cost, it was more than the price of a meal of fish.

Xu Yang cut the black fish meat into slices. The black fish meat had few bones and was slightly curled, and each slice was exceptionally tender.

This fish is delicious no matter how you cook it.

When he was cooking the fish, the live broadcast was not turned on, which was a bit troublesome, but he set up his phone and took a group of videos of cooking the fish.

As a short video host, you have to update the videos frequently, which is also part of your job responsibilities.

Xu Yang first planned to make a spicy black fish fillet.

Spicy black fish fillets are mainly fried or stir-fried.

He put the fish slices in a bowl, added onion, ginger, cooking wine, light soy sauce, black pepper and starch, mixed well and marinated for a while.

Heat oil in a pan again and fry the fish fillets until golden brown.

This is not the end yet. Add the fried minced garlic, chili pepper and Sichuan peppercorns, then pour the black fish fillets in and stir-fry together. Add some light soy sauce and salt to season, and finally sprinkle some coriander.

A dish of stir-fried spicy fish fillet is ready.

The fried fish fillets are shiny and look great.

Xu Yang tasted a piece. The fish slice was crispy at first, with the crisp feeling brought by frying. After biting it open, the fish meat inside was extremely delicious, soft and fragrant.

A variety of flavors mixed together, invading from the fish meat to the tip of the tongue, stimulating the taste buds.

Chili pepper, garlic, peppercorns.
Makes people drool

It smells so good.

"Well, that's great!"

Xu Yang himself exclaimed in praise.

He served out the fried spicy fish fillets and also made a boiled fish dish.

The black fish fillets are still marinated.

Then find a pot, stir-fry the onion, ginger and garlic, add two spoons of Pixian bean paste to make red oil, add water and bring to a boil, add light soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, etc.

Then add the side dishes, fish slices, minced garlic, chili segments, and finally pour a spoonful of hot oil on the fish slices.

On the other side, Li Shan steamed the rice and buns.

The portions for both dishes were huge.

They might not be able to finish it.

In this way, half of the black fish was consumed, and only half of the meat of the fish's body was used.

After a while, the spicy fish slices and boiled fish were served.

In addition to the two main dishes, there are also two small pickles, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of fried shredded potatoes.

Four college students were sitting in the cafeteria, looking at the two dishes being served with great excitement.

They started taking pictures first, snapping all the photos, and then sat down to eat.

"Owner, you were awesome today. We all saw the video of you catching fish. You looked like a god of war!"

Wu Kai put down his phone and said with admiration on his face.

Xu Yang smiled and replied:
"I was lucky. I was just trying to catch a small fish, but I saw a big one and got it."

The others admired him even more.

Everyone served themselves a bowl of rice and prepared to eat.

They were all waiting for Xu Yang to take the first bite.

Xu Yang picked up a piece of spicy fish fillet and took another bite.

I have to say, this black fish is really chewy.

It's not just a little bit delicious.

The meat is firm and tender, with an excellent taste, it is perfect.

The students also picked up the fish fillets and took a bite.

Wu Kai put the fish fillet into his mouth. In just a moment, he felt the fresh taste spreading from his tongue all over his body.

The fish slices are shiny and look crystal clear. The fish meat has been processed with multiple flavors, and the taste of chili and garlic can be smelled as soon as you put it in your mouth.

The outside is fried and golden and crispy.

The meat inside is white, tender and steaming hot.

While chewing, the slightly sticky sauce flows along the tongue in the mouth, and the delicious fish meat constantly stimulates the tip of the tongue.

Wu Kai ate a piece of fish and instantly felt refreshed.

I was a little tired after a busy day, but I immediately felt refreshed.

"Oh my god, this slice of meat is so delicious!"

Wu Kai said with excitement on his face.

The other three college students did the same, their eyes full of amazement.

The fish meat is of the best quality, and Xu Yang is a good cook, so the fish slices he makes are naturally delicious.

"Owner, your fish is so delicious! Oh my god, why don't you consider opening a restaurant?"

After Liu Wu ate a piece of fish, he also praised it.

"I seldom cook, Aunt Zhang usually does it. Today we have black fish, which tastes good on its own." "You guys worked hard to help me till the land some time ago."

"eat more."

Xu Yang responded readily.

Upon hearing this, a college student immediately said:

"Owner, if there is any work on the farm in the future, just call us."

"We'll definitely come!"

They took a bite of fish fillet and a mouthful of rice, and were dizzy with the aroma.

After a day of farm work, it is a real treat to eat such delicious food.

At this time, the small stove under the boiled fish fillets also started to burn, the soup in the pot began to boil, and slices of fresh fish were soaked in the pot.

Everyone started to taste the boiled fish fillets again.

Xu Yang’s boiled fish fillet is also a specialty.

The fish meat breaks down easily when chewed, but it does not appear soft, but rather remains firm.

It tastes smooth and delicious.

Everyone enjoyed the meal and relished it.

Xu Yang was originally worried that he was doing too much.

There’s no way. The black carp is too big and there’s too much fish meat to finish it.

He planned to fry another big pot and send it to his home later.

But judging by the condition of several people, there shouldn't be many left.

Just then, Xu Yang heard some noise coming from the window.

Looking closely, it looked like a tabby cat scratching the window.

Xu Yang recognized that it was Sang Biao. This guy couldn't bark for food, but he had a keen nose and could smell the fish.

Xu Yang found a small bowl, put a few slices of fresh fish in it, then stood up and walked out.

As soon as I went out, I saw two dogs squatting at the door.

The dogs he raised were very well-behaved. For example, if they were not allowed into the cafeteria, they would never go in and would just sit in front of the door and wait.

Very well-educated.

"I forgot about you two, wait a moment."

Xu Yang fed Sang Biao a small bowl of fish slices, then went back and picked up a few slices of fish himself, feeding them to the puppy one by one.

The meat from the black fish fillet has no bones, so it can be fed directly to dogs.

The two puppies ate a few slices and their tails wagged happily.

While eating fish, Xu Yang chatted with four college students.

"How are the fields over there? It's been raining for three days."

Xu Yang asked.

Hearing this, Wu Kai's face changed, and the delicious fish in his mouth no longer tasted good.

A person next to him said with a smile:

"All the chives he planted were drowned. When I went to check, they had been soaked in water for two days."

"The drainage work was not done well, there is nothing we can do."

Liu Wu also said:
"It's raining too much. Our fields are low-lying, so we just need to drain them properly."

Everyone was chatting about farming, some were happy and some were sad, the atmosphere was very joyful.

Xu Yang's crops are growing very well.

In the open air are potatoes and hay.

Potatoes are quite tenacious and will be fine as long as they are not completely submerged in water. Xu Yang handled it well, and the ground was just a little wet, which was just right.

The grass has gathered together and is covered with film. The rain actually promotes the growth of the grass.

After the rain, the film was broken and grass sprouted, looking hazy green.

“Farming is so hard!”

Wu Kai sighed on the side.

Everybody started laughing.

This meal was very good.

The fish cooked by Xu Yang was very delicious.

After eating, several students washed their dishes and then gathered at the Agricultural University to return to school, and they also hurried back.

After returning, there is no choice but to brag about it.

They were so engrossed in the meal that they didn’t want to leave. If they could drive a tractor and have fish to eat in the future, they could take care of all the farm work.

Xu Yang went back to the kitchen and cooked the remaining fish.

She fried the fish fillets, wrapped them up, and sent them to her parents, and also brought a plate for Aunt Zhang.

Life in the village has always been like this, everyone helps each other with everything.

Xu Yang generally doesn't like this. He only exchanges courtesy with people he is familiar with, and there is no need for others to interact with him.

When the fish is done, there will be a little bit of the tail and head left.

Xu Yang has a very good skill in slicing fish meat. After taking the fish meat out, all the fish bones are still intact.

When he came back, he saw the tabby cat was still on the farm.

"Sang Biao, come here, I'll give you something delicious to eat!"

Xu Yang shouted at the tabby cat.

As soon as he finished speaking, the tabby cat immediately ran over with a gait that showed it didn't recognize any relatives.

Xu Yang took out the whole fish bone and placed it on an open space.

Seeing the huge black fish, the tabby cat also became a little wary.

This black fish's head is bigger than its own.

Is this still a fish?
The tabby cat walked over, smelled the scent, and checked the condition of the black fish.

Then, it lowered its head and began to clean the fish meat from the black fish's tail.

At this time, it actually made a "humming" sound.

It seemed very satisfied with the black fish.
