The most common method for crabs, or hairy crabs, was to steam them. However, because of the environment in which hairy crabs grew, even if the water was very clean, they always lived in the mud at the bottom of the lake. Therefore, they always had to be spat out first and then steamed.

In this way, the crab steamed would taste fresh and sweet. However, this time, Yuan Zhou obviously didn't have the time to spit out the filth and could only cook it with wine.

In fact, the cooking method of the crab was quite common. After Yuan Zhou washed the crab with a special way, he drank the wine and then spat it out. The crab was already very clean. There were two purposes of cooking the crab with wine.

The first was to let the last bit of mud sink to the bottom and be decomposed by the wine. The second was to use the beer's own fragrance and the wheat's fragrance to replace the onion, ginger, and garlic to remove the fishy smell.

The low alcohol content in the beer kept the crab meat tender and chewy.

After they chatted for a while, they found Yuan Zhou didn't say much. Thus, Ling Hong jeered and asked Yuan Zhou to say something. His reason was also very reasonable. Ling Hong said,"Yuan Zhou, today, we are not here as the boss or the customer, but as friends. Why don't you tell a joke?"

"There are no jokes." Yuan Zhou shook his head.

"That's fine too, just say something. " Ling Hong said generously.

"Okay, then do you know why the crabs are tied up and steamed?" Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then said.

"Because that way, the crab won't be able to escape from my grasp." Jiang Changxi raised her eyebrows and reached out her white and tender hand, making a grabbing gesture.

All of a sudden, all the men present felt their balls hurting. Even Yuan Zhou felt a cold breeze blowing past him.

Looking at the quiet scene, Jiang Changxi asked with puzzlement,"Am I wrong?"

In order to prevent Jiang Changxi from giving an even weirder answer, Yuan Zhou hurriedly said,""No, it's because I'm afraid the crab will be disabled."

"Why?" Even though Yuan Zhou's answer was quite cold, everyone still asked for the reason proactively.

After all, compared to Yuan Zhou's awkward silence, Jiang Changxi's answer might be more annoying. Therefore, everyone's choice was very clear.

"Because crabs can be boiled in either cold water or hot water. If they're cooked in cold water, it doesn't matter if they're tied up or not. However, if they're cooked in hot water, they must be tied up. Otherwise, the crab's legs will break before it's cooked. This will lose the freshness of the crab, and the completeness of the crab will be affected as well." Yuan Zhou explained seriously.

"Yes, yes." All the customers present looked like they had been taught a lesson, and then everyone began to talk about something else.

This time, no one specifically asked Yuan Zhou to speak.

Not long after, Yuan Zhou got up and started to turn off the stove one by one.

With three "pa pa pa" sounds, the fire in the cassette stove on the table was extinguished, and the sound of Steam Beer surging came from the pot.

"Now, everyone can open the lid and fish out the crabs. There's a plate of ginger and vinegar on the side." Yuan Zhou said.

"We can finally eat." Wu Hai immediately stood up and opened the lid of the pot. The others were not slow either.

In an instant, an extremely rich aroma of wine wafted toward him.

The smell was mixed with the fragrance of wheat and a little fishy smell of crab, followed by the rich taste of wine, which made people feel a little tipsy with the hot steam.

"Good wine," Chen Wei took a deep breath and then sighed with emotion.

"It's a pity my wine is gone. " While saying that, Chen Wei picked up a crab with his chopsticks.

"Indeed, the boiled beer is really fragrant." Sun Ming also nodded his head in agreement. Of course, his speed was not slow either. He also picked up a crab very quickly.

At the side, the crab that Yin ya had just taken out of the beer was a male crab. He had a big head and bared his fangs and brandished his claws. However, the whole crab was red after being boiled and was emitting the fragrance of the crab and the beer. The smell was very appetizing.

"Hiss." However, even though it was too hot, Yin ya couldn't help giving a hiss.

"Let the crab cool down before you eat it. It's hot." At that time, Yuan Zhou turned his head and reminded her before picking up his own crab.

"Yes." Yin ya answered lightly.

As the crab was cooked, no one was in the mood to talk anymore. They all started to fight the crab seriously.

The night breeze was slightly cold, but with the steaming crabs and the warm wine, the night was not cold anymore.

However, the crab that was scooped out turned cold quickly. In just a short while, it was no longer hot in her hands. Thus, Yin ya started to eat it.

Yin ya liked to remove all the crab legs first and then eat the things inside the crab shell.

As a matter of fact, there was a small pile of crab legs in her hand, and she was using the crab's body to break open the shell.

The male crabs on this day were not as fat as the female crabs. After all, eating crabs required the nine moons corbellas and ten moon tips. Therefore, there was not much paste inside the male crabs, only a little bit.

"Oh, it smells so good." Yin ya stretched out the tip of her pink tongue and gave it a lick before saying with her eyes narrowed.

Although there wasn't much crab butter, there was still some. After taking a bite, the wonderful taste of the crab butter and the aroma of the wine entered his throat, making him unable to help but continue eating.

Crabs had this kind of charm. One couldn't stop eating after one bite.

A crab, even if it was a bigger male crab, didn't have much meat. Therefore, it was gobbled up by Yin ya in just a few bites.

Just when Yin ya was about to fish the crab again, Yuan Zhou said lightly at the side,""The smaller ones are female crabs."

Yin ya's hand that was fishing the crab paused for a while. Then, she revealed a smile on her face and nodded her head, saying,"Yes."

The atmosphere between the two of them was harmonious. However, Jiang Changxi and Cheng Cheng looked at each other and smiled at each other mischievously.

"Hey, Yuan Zhou, is mine a male or a female?" Jiang Changxi scooped up a crab quickly and handed it to Yuan Zhou directly while asking with a smile.

"It's male. The bigger ones are male crabs. Or look here, the pointed ones are male crabs, and the round ones are female crabs." Yuan Zhou answered primly.

"Oh, I see." This time, Jiang Changxi laughed while looking at Yin ya. She didn't take the crab and eat it until Yin ya's face turned red and the tips of her ears turned pink.

Yuan Zhou didn't feel anything at all. Yin ya just lowered her head and peeled the crab carefully. The female crab was different from the male crab. As soon as the female crab was peeled, the Golden yellow crab roe with a faint oil was revealed.

A burst of fragrance mixed with the fragrance of wheat rushed into the tip of her nose. Yin ya didn't care about anything else and directly licked the crab shell. Her tongue was covered with crab roe.

The strong aroma of the crab roe instantly rushed into his mouth and rushed down his throat. The extremely fragrant, fresh, and soft texture of the thick oil and salted duck egg yolk filled his mouth.

"Oh, it's so fragrant." Yin ya sighed with emotion.

Crab's deliciousness had been well-known since ancient times. There were many poems that praised crabs. Therefore, although there were many crabs at this crab banquet, the people sitting on the second floor were all quite good at eating.

Even the petite Cheng Han had eaten four crabs. Yuan Zhou ate the least, only three.

It couldn't be helped. Yuan Zhou was sitting in the middle of Yin ya and Jiang Changxi. The two of them looked pretty, but when it came to snatching food, Yuan Zhou was really no match for them.

After all, the two of them had been eating and practicing in Yuan Zhou's restaurant for two years.

Just when everyone finished eating the crab and Yuan Zhou was preparing the tea to remove the fishy smell, the system suddenly appeared.

The system displayed,[triggered the seasonal task. Does the host want to accept the task?]
