Chapter 529: Many Choices for Midnight Snack
Mew is a Psychic-attribute Pokémon, and one of the more powerful ones. If Mew was around, Seath might be able to know what Ralts-Odd is thinking about. However, this possibility is not very high now. Seath has not seen Mew for a while, and doesn't know where this naughty little guy has gone.
Heath couldn't help but think of Ho-Oh and Lugia. These two are also legendary beasts. If Heath could get their help, it would be of great help.
"Trainer, I'm so hungry today, can we have a midnight snack?" Zoroark came in, looked at Heath cautiously and asked. Heath was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zoroark strangely, but thinking that there were many guests today, it seemed understandable that they wanted to have a midnight snack, so Heath still made one for them.
After all, people always want to take a break after being tired, and eating some delicious food is also a way to rest in Heath's opinion.
"Let me check the ingredients..." Heath came to the kitchen and searched around, but didn't find much to eat, which made Heath a little confused. But after searching around, Heath still found a duck he bought today, but because he had made a beer duck before, only half of the duck was left.
It was Heath who recommended beer duck to Mr. Dagang. After all, Heath thought that Mr. Dagang, who particularly liked drinking beer, might like such a special delicacy as beer duck. However, the result was different from what Heath thought. Mr. Dagang was not very interested in beer duck.
"Half a duck..." Heath touched his chin and fell into deep thought. Duck is a perennial vegetable on the Chinese table, not to mention those delicious duck dishes, such as roast duck, which tastes very good. However, roast duck is usually roasted a whole duck, and Heath is still not sure whether half a duck can be roasted.
So Heath thought about it and decided to make an ordinary beer duck, and then pair it with a pot of soy sauce rice, which would be considered a special midnight snack dinner.
"Oh, yes, there is also patina tofu." Heath smiled and took out the last batch of patina tofu he had bought from the locker. In Heath's opinion, it was quite interesting to eat some tofu while eating barbecue.
When Heath traveled before, he once went to Yun Province. I have to say that many of the delicacies in Yun Province are very interesting. Of course, there are some that challenge people's tolerance, such as the most famous insect banquet, and many strange foods. However, in Heath's opinion, a night barbecue method unique to Yun Province called turning tofu is also quite interesting.
Flipping tofu, from the literal meaning you can actually know what this thing is used for. A group of people sit around a square table with a charcoal fire in the middle. Then the raw tofu is brought up, and then everyone flips the tofu on the net to grill it. Flipping the tofu while chatting with friends is also a very interesting thing.
In Heath's opinion, this is a very good way to socialize, and there are also many people in Yun Province who like to flip tofu. It is hard to say whether these people are enjoying the food or the atmosphere.
But Heath still likes that kind of atmosphere, and drinking a bottle of cold beer while turning the tofu is also a wonderful enjoyment. It has to be said that barbecue and beer really go well together, at least Heath himself likes it very much.
"Ah, and crayfish." Heath tapped his forehead.
The emergence of mobile phones is a great invention, but in a sense, it has also made social interaction strange. Heath still remembers that when he was in junior high school, everyone didn’t have mobile phones, and they could often get together to chat after class. But after college, everyone basically lay in the dormitory playing with their phones or playing games, and it was even more like this when they started working.
It has even developed to the point where people are reluctant to put down their phones when eating, and the same is true when going to bed. Because of playing with mobile phones, people's bedtime has been greatly delayed. Maybe when they were in elementary school, they still went to bed on time at 10 o'clock, but when they become adults with mobile phones, the time to go to bed has become 12 o'clock in the morning, or even later.
Staying up late also increases the probability of various diseases. Heath thinks this is not a good sign, but there is nothing he can do. After all, mobile phones are really interesting. He can only find a way to restrain himself.
But mobile phones have also made social interactions less lively than they used to be.
The same is true when eating barbecue. I ordered a table full of barbecue, thinking of inviting friends to eat and chat, to increase some social interaction and strengthen some relationships. But after sitting down, everyone started playing with their phones and eating became boring.
But at this time, crayfish appeared. Because of the special nature of crayfish, when eating crayfish, most people had to put down their mobile phones, peel the shells with their hands, and wear plastic gloves. Because the mobile phones were put down, everyone's topic opened up, and the real purpose of social interaction was reflected at this time.
So in his previous life, Heath still remembered that crayfish was once rated as a late-night snack choice that promotes socializing.
It even took off for a while, but then it gradually became less popular, or it became a regular choice for people's midnight snacks.
"But these crayfish are quite troublesome." Heath scratched his head, looking at the crayfish that were hardly moving in his hands.
The preparation of crayfish is quite simple, but the difficulty lies in the cost. After all, even if there are farmed crayfish, the price of crayfish is relatively expensive. Some unscrupulous barbecue stall owners will choose to buy wild lobsters that are caught. Wild crayfish can easily accumulate too many heavy metals and harmful substances in their bodies, so eating that kind of crayfish will inevitably cause some health problems.
Fortunately, Heath bought farmed crayfish. Although the price was a bit higher, he would eat them himself and provide them to guests, so Heath didn't care much.
After thinking about what to cook today, Heath began to prepare today's special food.
The first thing is the beer duck. Then, while waiting for the beer duck to be cooked, you can also prepare the ingredients and grill needed for flipping the tofu. Finally, it’s the crayfish.
Heath prepared two types of dishes: spicy crayfish and garlic crayfish, and then placed them in front of his Pokémon.
