  Whelk is one of the most commonly eaten sea snails in North America, and it is also well-known in Europe. Qin Shiou is familiar with this kind of snails, because every time I go to the supermarket, I can see this kind of snails on sale.

  There are also many types of conch shells in the Daqin fishing grounds, such as emerald snails, channel snails, Konobi conch, Prybilov conch, tower snails, etc. Of course, the most are still whelks.

  Whelks are mainly produced in the waters of Virginia and California in Florida, USA. In addition, they can also be caught in the waters of North Carolina and Alaska. They have footprints all over the west coast of the Atlantic Ocean and are naturally common in Newfoundland fishing grounds.

  Qin Shiou had seen their shadows on the bottom of the sea before, but not many, and the gathering places were scattered. This may be related to the lack of food for them in the Daqin fishing grounds.

  Whelks feed on seaweed and tiny organisms. They usually inhabit shallow waters and are addicted to echinoderms. Before Qin Shiou artificially planted seaweeds, there were few seaweeds and echinoderms in the surrounding shallow waters. The breeding of whelks has always been a problem.

  So, although Qin Shiou knew that the fishery had this kind of conch, he had never thought of catching it.

  Now Shaq raised it again, he suddenly realized that he quickly scanned with the seagod consciousness.

  Seaweed is indeed the foundation of the fishing ground. With the abundance of algae, zooplankton multiplies in large numbers, which attracts more small fish to survive, and small fish attract big fish, and the biological chain begins to improve.

  After more than a month of predation. The number of whelks has also increased a lot. Their reproductive ability is very strong, and they can ovulate more than two thousand in the sea at one time.

  After their fertilized eggs enter the ocean, they will drift away with the water. Finally, it grows and develops on the algae or reef.

  Although there are many whelks nowadays, Qin Shiou did not go fishing with Shake because it is more troublesome to catch whelks, and trapping boxes or trawl nets are generally used to catch them.

  If you use a trap box. Because the whelks move slowly, they need to wait for several days to pull up the box. While fishing with trawl nets, whelks are usually caught as a side catch, but no one specifically goes to catch this stuff.

  So many Fushou snails are enough to eat, but I don’t know whether they are delicious or not. Qin Shiou divides these snails into two basins according to their size, and pours the lake water of Chenbao Lake and a little sesame oil to induce vomiting of mud and sand.

   Seeing Qin Shiou pouring the sesame oil and stopping, Ivosen was ready to reach out and eat with enthusiasm. Shaq couldn't laugh or cry, and stopped him and explained, "I can't eat yet."

   "Pour oil." Ivorson looked at Shaq and said seriously.

  Shake was speechless, and said to Qin Shiou: "Yes, BOSS, why are you pour oil?"

  Qin Shiou explained: "Pour the sesame oil on the snails to make these snails spit out the mud faster. If you ask me the principle, then I can only say that I bought a watch last year. I don't know."

  Fu Shou snails are easy to touch and difficult to eat. Qin Shiou went online to check it. The result was very depressing and found that this snail is easy to parasitize the eggs of parasites such as Schistosoma and Angiostrongylus because of its large size.

The eggs of some parasites are difficult to kill. They are not developed in the body of the snails. After entering the human body or domestic animals, they will become larvae and attack the host. Canadians are afraid of this, so they do not eat this snail. .

  I kept inducing vomiting for an hour, during which time the water was changed four or five times. Qin Shiou brought four children and Nelson to clean up the snails.

  Little Lo, he let Nelson wash it and cut off the tail with pliers. Stir-fry and eat; the big snails are cut out with a spatula, ready to be eaten as cold snails.

  Fried snails are not suitable for large snails. The shell is thick, but if the snail meat is thicker. The taste of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and condiments can't get in at all.

  Fuck Snails are not too small, just like Chinese snails. They are all snails, they can't eat them with their shells and no meat.

   Picked a thumb-sized snail and twisted off the tail. Qin Shiou was marinated with white wine, salt, vinegar, and soy sauce to taste it, and the large snail meat was boiled in boiling water to kill possible parasite eggs as much as possible.

  The next step is to stir-fry the snails. First, bring the olive oil to a boil, fry the onion, ginger, garlic and chili, pour the small snails and stir frantically, and stir-fry the snails in boiling oil for four to five minutes to ensure that the snail meat is clean.

Finally, start to put the condiments: pour white wine and stir fry; add soy sauce and stir fry; add balsamic vinegar and stir fry; add sugar and stir fry; add oyster sauce, continue to stir fry, add salt, and stir fry; finally add chicken essence , Stir evenly to get out of the pot.

  The scent of stir-fried chili and the scent of sauce blended with condiments quickly spread throughout the kitchen. Nelson sniffed and said: "The taste is not bad, I don't know if the snail meat is good or not."

   Shirley looked at it with big eyes in a daze, and said: "How do you make this dish, with so many condiments and so many procedures?"

  Qin Shiou shrugged and said, “Unfortunately, only soy sauce does not have soy sauce or dark soy sauce. If there is such a seasoning, you need more condiments.”

  Cold snail meat is much simpler. After the white snail meat is cooked, cut it into slices with a knife. Anyway, they are all large snails. It is very simple to slice.

  After slicing, it is to make mixed sauce. Qin Shiou used two kinds, one is oiled snail meat, and the other is fresh mixed snail meat.

  Pouring oil is to pour soy sauce, chicken essence, vinegar, and oil consumption into the snail meat, and directly pour the boiling oil on it. For fresh snail meat, stir the snail meat with shredded green onion, ginger, garlic slices and condiments evenly, and mustard powder is used in it to reconcile the umami taste of the snail meat.

  Four large plates were made full, Qin Shiou put them on the table, and Ivorson threw away the basketball in his hand and stood on the table, starting to salivate.

  Qin Shiou tasted it, it tasted good, the oily snail meat was very fragrant, and the freshly mixed snail meat was delicious, but the snail meat was a bit old and tasteless after chewing.

  He thought that Shaq, the sea monster and others would still eat hot, but the three of them ate two bites and put down their knives and forks and drove to the town for a drink.

  Qin Shiou was so angry that he grabbed Nelson and asked, "Does this taste bad?"

Nelson said helplessly: "Boss, it smells delicious, but it tastes too strong in the front and no taste in the back. Moreover, the shells of the fried snails are too spicy, and the snail meat is too weak for us to eat. "

  Canadians are accustomed to the consistent taste when eating, and the taste is relatively light, so they are so interested in the simple and plump sea fish.

  The four children ate very happily, and Shirley comforted: "Qin, this is delicious, much better than my boiled one!"

  Powell and the three people nodded vigorously. Qin Shiou finally got a little comfort, but then it was absolutely wrong. Can your white water boiled snails compare with the fried snails and mixed snails that I have painstakingly cooked?

The other happily eating is Ivorson. He is not picky about eating. He uses a spoon for cooking to bite and eat. One spoonful is a large piece of snail meat disappears, stuffed into his mouth and chewed, his face is full of happiness. Smile.

  Qin Shiou could no longer condemn Shake's lack of taste. He hurried to the table and grabbed the mixed snail meat. The four children had short hands and arms, and they couldn't get it.

  There was no way. Seeing that Iwatson was about to pick up the plate and pour it into his mouth, Qin Shiou had to take five bowls and separate some first, and the others were given to Iwatson.

Ivorson has no interest in stir-fried snails. Qin Shiou taught him to **** and eat, but he felt that this way of eating was boring. He sucked another snail under his belly, and the wasted time digested the previously eaten snails. .

  The four children like to **** snail meat and play with the snail shells while eating, making the atmosphere very happy.
