Chapter 485： Roasted honey (2/2)
The bee pupae immediately became brown and fragrant on the surface, and soft and dense inside. It was really a good dish for wine.
The three of them were standing in the kitchen and licking the pupae like sunflower seeds, while ”bandaging” the hive.
”Well, it's fragrant and crisp, good stuff, good stuff.”
Shan Ye yelled.
The three honeycombs filled with honey were cut into palm-sized pieces by Lin Chou and wrapped them with emerald green banana leaves.
Then a charcoal fire is raised. When the flame disappears and only the red charcoal is left, the banana leaves are wrapped on the iron net and grilled.
”Roasted honey” is a very rare delicacy. For people in the city under Mingguang, ”sweet” is both a noun and an adjective, and it certainly represents prosperity and happiness.
When Lin Chou was young, there was a colony of bumblebees in the yard one year.
The bumblebee grows very small, it is not ambiguous at all to sting, and it is an egg-sized bag with a sting, and it will not swell for a few days.
Lin Chou's father used the method of smoking to take care of the nest of bumblebees, and cut them all over the house.
Half of the earth honeycomb buried in the ground is only a palm-sized piece full of honey, which is also gray and unsightly.
Among the hundreds of beehives in the middle are two bee pupae the size of rice grains, rolling against a black nose.
Lin Chou's father wrapped a honeycomb with banana leaves and baked it for Lin Chou. At first, Lin Chou didn't dare to eat it, so he was reluctant.
But after taking a bite at the instigation of his father, he couldn't stop at all.
That kind of sweetness, two catties of saliva flow out even thinking about it.
After ten minutes of roasting, everyone can ”smelt” the sweet and refreshing fragrance through the banana leaves, which is the mellow and long-lasting fermentation of a mixture of plant sugar and animal protein.
The girls also gathered around,
”It smells so sweet, so sweet.”
”what is this?”
Although Xia Dasha has few nerves, he is definitely not a stingy person.
”We eat together, we all eat!”
Peeling off the charred banana leaves, a stream of lively honey appeared in front of everyone.
The honey that ran out of the hive was still gurgling with tiny bubbles, steaming.
The slight smoky flavor and the fragrance of banana leaves add a unique style to its breath.
The honeycombs soaked in honey have long been separated from each other after heating, and they have a trembling frozen texture, almost translucent, and look like standard hexagonal cod liver oil capsules.
The ladies dispense a small spoon each, scoop up the honey and put it in the mouth, and their big eyes are narrowed.
”So sweet, so fragrant!”
The value of wild bee hive is very high, and its honey's nutritional value and sweet and mellow taste are not comparable to house bees.
The little round face smiled with red blush,
”It's better than the ghee honey I eat at home...”
Although honey is good, not everyone can put it in his stomach no matter how much it is like Xia Dasha.
After a few bites, the girls put down their spoons,
”It's too sweet and fragrant. I want to eat it, but I can't eat it anymore.”
The lanky man giggled and said,
”Obviously because I am afraid of gaining weight and dare not eat it, right?”
Little round face was furious,
”Skinny, what's so proud of, come, fight for 300 rounds, don't cry after losing for a while!”
”Come on!”
Speaking to start the war again.
Lin Chou curiously said,
”What are you winning?”
Little round face replied,
”Won the order, lose the checkout.”
Lin Chou was almost moved to tears.
Okay, really good.
This tuft of roasted honey was not wasted, and these girls finally knew what a wise report is.
How many times I have been here, I have never ordered a pot of tea in a decisive battle until it gets dark. Is this the commander who keeps the cloud open and sees the moonlight!
Little round face yelled,
”Two kings bring four twos! Dead thin, you lose again!!”
