Chapter 137 Making Dried Abalone

Li Xuan demonstrated Wang Lei the correct posture to catch abalone, and then swam towards another reef alone.

In fact, prying with a knife is not the most correct way to catch abalone.

Although this method is labor-saving and fast enough, no matter what abalone, it can be done at most three seconds.

However, it is easy to hurt the abalone when prying with a dagger.

It is also in the wild and when fishing for natural abalone, fishermen will use this method.

In those larger abalone breeding bases, special abalone fishing people use the method of knocking mountains and shaking tigers to catch abalone.

Although the meat feet of abalone have strong adsorption capacity, the adsorption capacity of abalone with a shell length of 15 cm can reach 400 kilograms, which is 800 to 900 kilograms.

But abalone is very afraid of vibration.

Just take a special hammer and gently tap the reef that the abalone is absorbed. When you take the abalone, you will immediately feel numb and let go of the reef and fall off.

Li Xuan was around here again and searched carefully for a few rounds.

The final result made Li Xuan a little disappointed.

Although this sea area is one of the habitats of abalone, there are certain abalones that breed in this sea area.

But the number is very small. The most important thing is that the abalone that reproduces in this sea area is not very large.

I found a lot of three-headed abalone, but I didn’t see any of them.

The largest one is the first abalone found by Li Xuan, and its size is only infinitely close to the double-headed abalone.

But soon, Li Xuan adjusted his mentality.

If you can't find a double-headed abalone and a single-headed abalone, that's the normal operation.

If single-headed abalone and double-headed abalone are so easy to find, then single-headed abalone and double-headed abalone will not be that valuable.

Normally, abalone has only a lifespan of about five years.

According to the length of abalone three centimeters per year, abalones can only grow into double-headed abalone when their life span is approaching.

Survival is very difficult in the wild.

Abalone lacks enough attack and self-protection methods, so it is too difficult to survive until the deadline.

A abalone was caught by humans just when the deadline was approaching. This probability was smaller than the chance of winning the lottery.

As for single-headed abalone?

Normal abalone cannot grow that big.

Each single-headed abalone grows by combining various reasons. It may have mutated, or it may be the old birthday star among abalone.

A single-headed abalone is like a human being who is more than two meters tall. Not one of them can produce one of them in ten thousand. They are all Giant.

After the fishing was over, Li Xuan returned to the boat and prepared to make dried abalone with more than three heads.

In our country, the craftsmanship of making dry abalone has been around for thousands of years.

It is said that as early as the end of the Han Dynasty, when Zhuge Liang was sent to the Eastern Wu, Zhou Yu, the important minister of the Eastern Wu, represented Sun Quan, gave Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun a Ganbao to Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, hoping to win over the two of them.

Unfortunately, neither of these two people could be touched by the desire to be touched. When the abalone came into their hands, it was a meat bun to beat the dog.

"Chen Bin, help me take all the abalones with more than three heads." Li Xuan ordered.

"What are you going to do? Those big abalones are kept in the living water warehouse. If you have nothing to do, don't catch them." Li's father said immediately.

Li Xuan smiled and said, "Dad, you are afraid that those abalones will die if they are caught, right? Don't worry, I just want to make these abalones now, make them into dried abalones, and the price will only be higher. If the thing really dies on the boat, it will be a huge loss. Three abalones, each of them will be at least tens of thousands of yuan."

Father Li said in surprise: "You can cure dry abalone?"

Li Xuan smiled and nodded, "Of course."

In fact, the process of fabricating dry abalone is very simple.

On the boat, only five abalone with more than three heads were caught.

There are four, and the size is about the same.

One of them is obviously a bigger lap than the other four, and it is likely to reach the weight of a double-headed abalone.

Li Xuan put all the five abalones that had just been caught on the boat in an empty water tank, and then poured drinking water into whose box.

As soon as the abalone came into contact with fresh water, they immediately struggled violently, and soon there were no vital signs.

Many living organisms that live in freshwater will not adapt to the seawater, but they can still live for a long time.

However, most of the creatures in seawater will die once they come into contact with fresh water, and only a small part of them can migrate.

Li Xuan peeled the shells of the five dead abalones and washed them all clean with a soft brush.

This step is very important and even directly affects the quality and quality of abalone.

If it were a single-headed abalone, Li Xuan would not even make it himself. He would immediately order the fishing boat to return, and after arriving on the shore, he would directly ask a top chef to make it with the best skills.

But there are not so many things to pay attention to in three-headed abalone.

After washing all the abalone, Li Xuan took a large basin from the cabin, poured half a basin of drinking water into it, and then added a lot of salt into it.

Chen Bin looked at Li Xuan and added two bottles of salt to the washbasin, and seemed to have the intention of adding salt to it. He couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xuan, how much salt do you want to add? If you add it, the salt won't melt."

"In addition to the net abalone that only needs to add 5% salt and South African abalone that only needs to add about 15% salt, the more other abalone, the better. At least 20% salt is required in the water. Only in this way can dry abalone be preserved for a long time after the abalone is prepared." Li Xuan replied.

Chen Bin said oh, wrote it down carefully, thinking about what day he would get abalone himself, this trick would be useful.

Li Xuan added a small can of salt to the basin, then nodded with satisfaction, stirred the salt water evenly, and then put the five abalones into the salt water together.

This step is almost done.

The next step is to wait until tomorrow.

Before making dry abalone, it is necessary to soak in salt water for at least twenty hours before dehydration can be performed.

The entire dehydration time takes about a month.

First, put the abalone in the sun and dry it for about 30 heads, then put the abalone on charcoal fire and dry it until the middle Microsoft is in a very hard place. The entire production process is completed.

Of course, Li Xuan does not need to complete the last step of baking. He does not have this skill. He only needs to take out these abalones every day from tomorrow and let them in the sun. After the boat docks, he can just look for the buyer directly.

After making, the dried abalone will shrink by about half.

Many hotels like to sell fresh abalone about one kilogram and sell it to customers as single-head abalone.

In fact, a market of fresh abalone can be killed by a pound of fresh abalone, or even three-headed abalone.
