Chapter 355 A leopard turns into a kitten

As Chu Mingcheng pulled the fish onto the boat, the entire face of the fish appeared before their eyes.

The body of the fish is bright silver and sparkles in the sun. It looks like a hairtail just out of the water. It looks very beautiful.

"This is really a white fish!" Jiang Luoluo took a photo with her mobile phone, and then found out the origin of this fish.

"Dabai Guyu? These people choose names so casually!" Chu Mingcheng leaned over and took a look, then shook his head and laughed.

"The Internet says this fish tastes very good, let's keep it!"

"Okay, I don't know how long it will take!"

"Then you want to stop?"

"Definitely not. The killer whales are tired of eating tuna and want to change their taste today."

No matter how good-tasting the fish is, when most of them grow to such a large size, the meat will become very rough, and the taste is actually not good.

The bigger the fish, the more delicious it is. The proportion of fish among all seafood is not high.

Since he can eat it himself, Chu Mingcheng of course wants to catch some smaller ones and feed the larger ones to his pets.

Then he went to get a large plastic box, shoveled some ice from the refrigerated cabin and put it in, and put the fish in to freeze it before putting it in the refrigerated cabin in a hurry.

Then he continued to take out a small silk trevally from the living water tank, hung it on the fishhook and threw it into the water again.

After Jiang Luoluo knew that the fish was bigger than he thought, he obediently went to get a hand-held electric winch rod and fished with it.

However, after a few minutes, the fish took the bait, but the force was not as strong as she imagined.

And it's pumping one after another, which is essentially different from the explosive power of fish.

"Hey, what kind of squid did I catch?"

"And squid?" Chu Mingcheng put a more than 70-centimeter white squid into the refrigerated cabin. He wanted to eat this much smaller one himself.

When I heard my daughter-in-law say there were squid, I felt happy.

The squid in the Indian Ocean are definitely different from those in the Pacific Ocean, and he can unlock new species again.

This time I didn’t rush to fish, but stood aside and waited.

Seeing that the pulling force was not that strong, Jiang Luoluo did not turn on the electric winch.

There was no electric socket on the deck of the sailboat, and the electric winch could not be charged at any time, so she had to use it sparingly.

The creature she caught didn't resist much, but was just a little heavy.

Jiang Luoluo hugged the fishing rod and kept reeling in the line. It took about five or six minutes to successfully pull the underwater creature to the surface.

"Oh, what a big squid!" A bright red big squid about 70 to 80 centimeters in length appeared in front of them.

Jiang Luoluo moved her aching wrist and continued to pull it to the side of the boat, and then asked curiously: "Isn't this the cub of the giant squid?"

"No, this should be a diamond-fin squid, which can also be called a flying squid." Chu Mingcheng was deeply impressed by the fact that this squid looked like a creature from the Sepidae family.

"I occasionally came across some videos before, and some of the introductions were like this."

"Brothers, look, the fisherman is using a sharp knife to cut open the deep-sea diamond-fin squid that has just been caught on the boat. When the sharp knife cuts open the body of the diamond-fin squid, the bright red skin suddenly changes between red and white.

.”

"The point is, the introduction accents in these videos are all the same."

At this time, the naughty Hei Ye came over curiously and gently touched the diamond-fin squid with his mouth.

Suddenly, the body of the diamond-fin squid changed from red to transparent. This sudden and strange change scared the night and made him bark.

While jumping around, I touched the diamond-fin squid with my restless claws.

This time, the diamondfin squid was offended. Its body shrank, and a stream of ink suddenly spurted out from its mouth.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch." Heiye was immediately sprayed in the face, and the ferocious barking in his mouth turned into a scream. He was obviously frightened.

Chu Mingcheng burst into laughter immediately, while Jiang Luoluo scolded with a smile: "If you mess with it, I will give you a bath later."

"This is easy!" Chu Mingcheng grabbed Heiye and threw it into the water.

With a "plop", the miserable night was suddenly submerged by the sea water, and then a touch of black floated on the sea.

Jiang Luoluo covered her forehead with her palms speechlessly: "What's the difference? I still have to wash it again with clean water later."

“It can save some tap water!”

"Not necessarily."

The two chatted without stopping. Jiang Luoluo continued fishing, while Chu Mingcheng used a knife to dissect the diamond-fin squid.

Once the knife is cut, the wonderful touch and the snow-white but thick body of the squid make people extremely greedy.

Although it is a squid, it looks like a squid no matter how you cut it open.

The meat production rate is basically in the carcass, and the tentacles are very short, but because the squid is large enough, the portion is still quite large, and you can fry a large plate.

This is a good ingredient. Chu Mingcheng thinks that the white fish is not as fragrant.

So I immediately went back to get a set of equipment specially designed for fishing for diamond-fin squid, and fished with Jiang Luoluo.

After a day's delay, the harvest is still very good.

In the evening, there was a plastic box of squid cylinders and processed squid heads in the refrigerated cabin.

"Hmm~ I haven't fished like this for a long time, I'm so tired!" Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Jiang Luoluo stretched out to show off his beautiful figure, then packed up his tools and prepared to go back.

"Then you have a good rest. I'll do it tonight." After Chu Mingcheng fed the last white fish to the killer whale, he also started to pack up the tools.

He caught a lot of squid, and he also caught a lot of squid by mistake.

The two of them only kept two "small fish" about 50 centimeters long, and the rest of the larger ones went into the mouth of the killer whale.

Back in the cabin, Jiang Luoluo lay on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch a movie.

Chu Mingcheng walked into the kitchen carrying a diamond-fin squid that she finally caught and hadn't had time to handle.

This is only sixty centimeters in length. The diamondfin squid caught today are basically this big, and there are no small ones at all.

Judging from so many videos, the output of this squid should be pretty good.

Putting it on the chopping board, Chu Mingcheng simply rinsed the squid with a water pipe, but he washed the easily dirty areas like the tentacles twice.

Then, he picked up a kitchen knife, inserted the tip of the knife into the squid carcass, and then slashed all the way down.

Even after paddling all afternoon, he still couldn't put it down.

When you pick up the cut squid carcass, you can see that the thickness of the carcass is more than one centimeter.

After opening it, there was a dark internal organ inside, and there was some dark blood, but not much.

Cuttlefish and squid are the kind of seafood that Chu Mingcheng thinks is best to handle.

Just pull out the internal organs along with the head, and what's left is the carcass that can be eaten.

The slightly more troublesome thing is to deal with the head. You need to cut it open, take out the eyes, teeth and other things, and throw away all the internal organs.

Chu Mingcheng will put all this garbage in a small plastic box next to it, and then dump it all into the sea to nourish other small marine life.

The rest is easy to deal with. Simply rinse the head and tentacles, then put them in a pot and blanch them.

Larger molluscs such as squid and octopus have teeth on their tentacles and suckers, which need to be boiled for easy handling.

Finally, once the membranes on both sides of the carcass are torn off, a diamondfin squid is ready.

Even if Chu Mingcheng has a big appetite, he can't finish such a big diamond-fin squid in one meal.

He cut the cylinder into eight pieces, boiled four of them with salt and used them as snacks for the two dogs.

For the other four pieces, two are braised and two are used to make shredded squid for the wife as a snack.

It was going to be dinner soon, so he made the marinade first and cooked it.

Cut the squid head and tentacles into small pieces and stir-fry.

The kitchen was in full swing, and Chu Mingcheng also took out some vegetables and meat from the refrigerator.

The pork ribs of the little wild boar are quite good, stir-fry the pork ribs.

It's a pity that he hasn't found any suitable islands recently, otherwise he would still want to have a roast suckling pig on the beach.

The roasted whole lamb last time made the two of them never forget it. Sure enough, the one they caught would taste better, or maybe it was because it was free?

Life at sea is difficult, but not difficult.

It’s hard because there are so few things to enjoy.

It’s not difficult because there are many activities. For example, when the wave conditions are good, Chu Mingcheng will take Jiang Luoluo to surf.

It’s actually not boring to play and stop, and there are so many pets to accompany you. At least whale riding is a project that no one else has to spend money on.

The journey was originally expected to take ten days, but the two of them delayed it for another ten days before arriving in Tanzania.
