Of course, I can only eat it occasionally.
Humans do not have as strong a defense system as animals. Even if krill are peeled, eating too much can cause physical discomfort.
There is still heavy snow in the sky.
Xiang Yang exhaled a breath of hot air, then tightened his thermal clothes. He now understood why the blizzard in Antarctica was called the killer wind.
It's so cold even without any wind and just snowing. If there's a bit of wind, people will be frozen to death.
Chen Qingsheng brought out a box of shelled krill and showed it to Xiang Yang.
"You should be able to feel the shells after peeling them. We are going to eat them ourselves." Xiang Yang grabbed a handful but did not look at them carefully. Instead, he asked Chen Qingsheng.
"Don't worry, Captain. I have already told everyone that no one will try to cheat on such matters." Chen Qingsheng said with a smile.
Xiang Yang nodded, "Don't mention it, after the krill is peeled, it looks crystal clear and quite beautiful."
"It looks very appetizing to me, but I dare not eat too much of this thing. Make me some porridge at noon and put some shrimps in the porridge." Gao Chuang said from the side.
Xiang Yang grinned. In fact, he also liked shrimp porridge.
The porridge made with krill and shrimp is delicious and has a strong seafood flavor.
In fact, the best way to eat krill is to stir-fry it with oil, chili peppers and shredded ginger. The taste is absolutely amazing.
However, including the crew members on Xiang Yang's ship, no one in the entire fleet likes eating chili peppers.
"Okay, then I'll have someone cook some shrimp porridge, ten large pots, to ensure that everyone in the fleet has enough to eat." Xiang Yang said with a smile.
In Antarctica, krill are extremely abundant and it is very easy to catch them.
But peeling krill shells is not an easy task.
If Xiang Yang were to treat the entire fleet to stir-fried krill, he might feel a little reluctant, because that would require eating a lot of Antarctic krill that have already been shelled.
But Xiang Yang didn't care about making porridge.
A pot of porridge can hold no more than two kilograms of shrimp, which is enough for everyone on a boat. Such a small amount of krill can be peeled back in no time.
"Okay, then I'll thank Boss Xiang on behalf of my brothers." Gao Chuang said with a smile.
"Why are you being polite?" Xiang Yang smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Chen Qingsheng and said, "Master Chen, thank you for your hard work in making the porridge."
"Hey, what's so hard about this? Isn't it just cooking a meal?"
Chen Qingsheng smiled heartily, then turned his head and shouted loudly towards the deck: "The captain said that we will have krill porridge in a while. Anyone who knows how to make porridge, follow me to the kitchen."
"Cooking porridge?"
“Krill porridge?”
The crew members immediately looked in the direction of Chen Qingsheng, with excited expressions on their faces.
The days of the crew sailing in Antarctica are so hard and happy.
Although we were in a cold snowstorm, we could enjoy all kinds of delicious seafood from the Antarctic waters. We felt both happy and miserable.
Gao Chuang asked a crew member for a cigarette, lit it up and took a puff, then said with a smile: "This krill tastes really good. If its shell wasn't poisonous, I could eat it for half a month and it would still go well with rice."
Xiang Yang smiled and said nothing. Just listen to what Gao Chuang said, but don't believe it, because no matter how delicious something is, it will not taste good if you eat too much.
There was a crew member on Xiang Yang's ship who particularly liked to eat olive paste. Once when Xiang Yang was out to sea, the crew member took out a bottle of olive paste and shared it with everyone. Everyone said that the olive paste tasted good.
Xiang Yang also tasted a little and found it tasted really good.
So the next time they went out to sea, Xiang Yang prepared a large amount of olive paste on the ship as backup food, and promised that the crew could eat as much as they wanted.
On that day, many crew members on the ship took the olive paste as a snack, with each person eating several bottles a day.
As a result, everyone vomited the next day. They vomited so much bile that their stomachs were full of the taste of olive paste. Many people swore on the spot that they would never eat olive paste again in their lives.
White rice porridge does not need to be cooked for too long, and Antarctic krill is cooked as soon as it is heated.
Soon, a crew member brought Xiang Yang a large bowl of krill porridge in an aluminum box.
In the horrible weather in Antarctica, the porridge is almost cold just after it comes out of the pot. If you wait a little longer, the whole food box might be frozen.
Xiang Yang quickly took a sip.
Sure enough, it’s very fresh.
The freshness of krill and the fragrance of millet mixed together create a unique taste.
"Yes."
“Bang!”
At this moment, a very strange cry came from the deck.
Xiang Yang looked down.
It turned out that the anesthetic effect of the harp seal had worn off and it woke up. At this moment, it was staring at the thing in Xiang Yang's hand. One of its forelimbs kept slapping its belly, making a loud noise, as if to say that it also wanted to eat and its stomach was now empty.
"Seals also drink porridge?" Chen Qingsheng asked in surprise.
"Haha, maybe it's because of the smell of krill in the porridge." Xiang Yang said with a smile.
Xiang Yang had no doubt as to whether seals could drink porridge.
Dogs are also carnivores, but they can also eat porridge and rice.
"Give it a share?" Chen Qingsheng asked tentatively.
"Are there any extra ones?" Xiang Yang asked.
"Definitely." Chen Qingsheng nodded.
Chen Qingsheng understood Xiang Yang's character. As long as Xiang Yang said he wanted to treat someone, no matter who he invited, he would make sure the other person was well fed. So when making porridge, Chen Qingsheng would rather make more, even if there was some left over, than not having enough for everyone to share later.
"Since there is extra, go get a basin and scoop some for this seal." Xiang Yang said with a smile.
"Okay." Chen Qingsheng agreed with a smile, "I'll go right away."
Before he knew it, Xiang Yang had finished all the porridge in the lunch box.
Xiang Yang burped, looked up at the sky and said, "Why is the snow falling again? It's never going to end."
Just when I was drinking porridge, the snow stopped for a while.
Now that he had finished the porridge, Xiang Yang discovered that the snow seemed to be heavier than at the beginning, and it only stopped for a few minutes.
"We've only just arrived. The real heavy snow hasn't started to fall yet." Gao Chuang has been to Antarctica and experienced snowstorms. He raised his head and drank the shrimp porridge in the clean food box. Then he said, "As long as the road is not blocked by heavy snow, this snowfall is considered light."
Except for Xu Fang, Chen Qingsheng, Chen Fusheng, Zhou Wang and Xu Fang, none of the people on Xiang Yang's ship had ever been to Antarctica, let alone experienced the heavy snow weather there. After hearing what Gao Chuang said, they all became a little scared.
"Mr. Gao, what should we do if the road is blocked by heavy snow?" Xia Pengjie asked anxiously.
"Just close the road, what else can we do?" Gao Chuang said nonchalantly.
