magic ranch

Chapter 982 Authentic New Zealand Cuisine

The whole family played outside for another whole day before heading home.

This home is not the home in the United States, nor the home in Australia, but a newly acquired highland pasture in New Zealand.

It is worth mentioning that the sudden "disappearance" of their family really shocked those who were waiting to play with them.

When I woke up in the morning, the family was gone, not only their family members were gone, but also the dolphins playing here were gone.Even if you're leaving, you still have to hear the sound of the yacht's motor, right?

So they felt that Liu Heming was too cunning to sneak away.Everyone also took action, looked around, and finally saw their return in the afternoon.

Liu Heming was inexplicably blamed, and was slightly tricked by these mischievous manta rays.

Along the way, the two little guys were lying in the car and sleeping soundly. Sasha and Heloise were similar. Only Comrade Liu cheered up and drove according to the navigation.

Highland pastures, as the name suggests, generally have higher altitudes.Surrounded by mountains, the flowing water gathered by glaciers between the mountains is also endlessly flowing.

After getting the car in order, the workers who had been notified to wait here also led Liu Heming and his family to the main house.

The breeding density in this pasture is not very high, and the number of workers is not very large.Maybe there will be more workers here after the dairy factory and vegetable planting are all set up in the future.

In charge of this ranch is Bill, who is also the ranch manager specially hired by Suzanne.

Coming to the ranch, because of the increase in altitude, the temperature is much lower than playing at sea.After the big guys entered the house, the warmth brought by the fire in the fireplace should not be too comfortable.

"Bill, are there any difficulties in the construction here?" After taking a sip of fragrant coffee, Liu Heming asked.

"Boss, you can rest assured that with me here, there won't be any problems here." Bill said with a smile.

"For you, not only me, but even the workers in the ranch are very curious. There is no temporary worker in our ranch, which is unimaginable in many ranches."

"Haha, it seems that everyone has more confidence in me." Liu Heming also joked.

This is really rare, because people in this country have a somewhat "lazy" attitude towards work, which I have known before.But looking at the basic operation of the ranch now, there is really no shortage of people, which is rare.

"Dad, can Nao Nao and I play outside for a while?" Alex asked, squeezing into his arms.

"Heard the dog barking? Don't play for too long." Liu Heming tapped the little guy's nose.

Alex nodded happily, then ran out holding Xiao Nao Nao's little hand.

"Bill, don't worry about them, they are used to contact with these animals." Liu Heming said with a smile.

"How many cows are there in our ranch now? In the future, this place will become a very important source of milk for us, and the supply of milk must keep up."

"Boss, we have a total of [-] dairy cows and [-] sheep. The number of beef cattle is less, just those imported from your American pasture." Bill said.

"It is expected that the number of dairy cows and sheep will increase next year. At present, the sales of wool are still going through the previous sales channels, and only a new contract has been signed."

Liu Heming nodded, and the number was maintained well.After all, this ranch has just been taken over, and there is still a lot of potential to be tapped.

"Boss, I had little contact with planting before, so I was a little conservative in the planning of vegetable planting, and only planned [-] planting sheds." Bill continued.

"This number is about the same. The population of New Zealand is not very large. Our vegetables are mainly supplied to residents of New Zealand, but we don't know what will happen to the sales in the future." Liu Heming said.

"As for the management of planting, you don't have to worry. I will send some people from the American ranch later, and let them be responsible for the early management. By the way, I will introduce my experience."

"OK, boss, what are the arrangements for today's dinner? I have prepared a lot of ingredients. Will the chef in the ranch cook it, or will you do it yourself?" Bill asked with a smile.

"Yes, it seems that you have a good grasp of our family's information, we should do it ourselves." Liu Heming said helplessly.

This Bill is a caring person, or his family's foodie attributes are too strong, everyone knows.This was also the first meal back home, and Liu Heming felt that everyone should eat more delicious food.

Follow Bill to the kitchen of the house, good guy, Bill is really well prepared.

Big lobster, abalone, salmon, mussels, oysters... are all placed in large basins and placed here.

"I heard from Suzanne that Alex likes seafood very much, so I prepared some more. There are coffee beans in the cabinet over the living room. You can choose according to your own taste." Bill said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you, I have prepared well. Stay and have a meal today and try my handicraft." Liu Heming nodded with a smile.

"Boss, thank you for your kindness, but I still have to go to town to find my girlfriend on a date." Bill said.

"Haha, I hope you have a good night. Take two bottles of the red wine we brewed ourselves. It hasn't been sold here yet." Liu Heming said.

This Bill is indeed very good. Although there is a sense of familiarity, it will not arouse people's disgust.Otherwise, today he would try his best to stay here for dinner instead of going to town to accompany his girlfriend.

Alex and Xiao Nao, who had been playing wildly outside for a long time, also ran back and plunged into the kitchen.

Looking at the pots of seafood, the two little guys couldn't walk, almost drooling.

Liu Heming went to the car and brought over his kitchen utensils. The two days of playing at sea have been hard, so he has to let his family have a good meal and then sleep well.

"Okay, which dish do you plan to eat first?" Chef Liu Heming said as he stood by the stove after getting ready.

"Dad, can you eat salmon first?" Alex raised his little hand.

"Boss, this black-edged abalone is very good. According to the introduction, it can be eaten as sashimi. It tastes the most delicious." Heloise also raised his hand.

Xiao Nao Nao next to him thought about it, it doesn't matter what you eat, let's raise our hands too, you can eat anything.

Liu Heming wiped his hands, and then placed the plates in front of everyone one at a time.

Liu Heming sliced ​​the salmon very thinly, which is the inevitable result of his skilled knife skills.Rows of fish fillets are cut, and with a knife, they are distributed to the plate.

Both the big and the young don't need him to speak, just pick up the chopsticks and start eating.

The fish fillets here have just been eaten, and the black-edged abalone sashimi was also finished by Liu Heming, and they were delivered to everyone's plates again.

This is the first time for Liu Heming to taste such abalone sashimi, and the taste is really not bad, very delicious.It's just that what he looks forward to more is oysters, the taste of which is really fresh.

Take out the oysters from the seawater basin, pry them open with a knife, and the fleshy oysters are presented in front of you.It's just that the taste is a bit strong because it has been soaking in sea water.

He pried the oyster meat with a knife and sent it directly to his mouth.This taste is different, only fat, tender and creamy are left, as if you have swallowed all the umami of the sea in one bite.

"Dad, is it delicious?" Alex asked with big eyes blinking.

"It's really delicious, everyone can eat more." Liu Heming affirmed, and then quickly picked the oyster shells for them.

The raw ones are the starters, and the fourth dish Liu Heming cooks is small whitebait.

Beat the egg liquid, put the cleaned small whitebait in it, stir it casually a few times, then pour it into the pan and fry it into whitebait omelette.

When the smell of eggs wafted out, Alex kept sniffing and sniffing with his little nose.Before serving, Liu Heming casually sprinkled some black pepper and salt, then divided them into small pieces and put them on the plates of these distinguished "guests".

While the big guy was savoring it carefully, he fished out the big lobster from the basin next to it. After cleaning it, he chopped it for a meal, and then put it in the pot for a stir-fry.

There are too many ways to cook lobster, and each has its own way.However, Liu Heming felt that he ate too much raw meat just now, and now a spicy lobster can better stimulate everyone's taste buds.

After a crackling stir-fry, this time I didn't put it on a plate, but put it directly into a basin, and then brought it to the table.

Alex is also an expert. He never used chopsticks to eat this. He just stretched out his little hand and grabbed a piece of it, gnawing and letting his fingers.

Xiao Nao Nao is not good at eating spicy food now, so Liu Heming made some for him separately, and even made the lobster meat directly, making it easier for him to eat.

Alex, this little guy, is really fascinated by seafood. While eating here, his little eyes keep gliding to the mussels next to him.

Liu Heming picked up the brush, cleaned the mussels, and then made a small pot of mussel soup.

After eating the spicy lobster, it is just right to rinse your mouth with this light and delicious mussel soup.

A small bowl for each person, drinking beautifully, Comrade Liu started to clean up.

He cooks very quickly and in large quantities, leaving a lot of what he cooked before.For Sasha and the others, the big lobster is of course the most satisfying.

Alex, who was drinking the soup, saw Liu Heming stuffing chopsticks into his mouth non-stop, and felt a little greedy, and then opened his small mouth like the boss.

Liu Heming took a small piece of whitebait omelette for her, Xiao Nao Nao next to her also opened his mouth wide at this time, and had to give a piece too.

For this group of people, this is the real local food after coming to New Zealand.Regardless of the size, the belly is also supported.

The method is not very complicated, but the big guy is very enjoyable.
