Chapter 337 The first person to eat crabs

Xiang Yang smiled, Li Chao is engaged in catering, so it is good to know this kind of crab, after all, this kind of crab is not edible, why should Li Chao know about it?

"Chen Qingsheng, come with me."

Xiang Yang took Chen Qingsheng to the stern of the boat. Although the embroidered ridges were cooked like a crab and it would not cause human poisoning, the toxins of poisonous crabs are generally neurotoxic and can directly affect the nervous system of the victim. Therefore, as long as the toxin enters the blood of the human body, the human being is quite dangerous.

Therefore, the first time the fishing net came down, Xiang Yang didn't feel at ease to let ordinary crew members deal with these embroidered ridges as ripe as crabs.

Xiang Yang untied the fishing net himself.

Chen Qingsheng immediately led a few people to lift the edge of the fishing net to prevent crabs with embroidered ridges from climbing up.

Fang Youqun pulled the edge of the fishing net with both hands, but looked into the fishing net with his head. He regretted, "Wow, this crab is very beautiful. It looks very appetizing, but I can't eat it."

Xiang Yang glanced at him, "If you want to eat crabs, I'll treat you to eat hairy crabs later, so don't think about these embroidered crabs."

"The hairy crabs in this season are too cloudy to be eaten." Song Guoning walked over with his hands behind his back, "Eating crabs requires a lot of attention."

Xiang Yang smiled, he is different from these fastidious people, he always just eats food.

But the visitor is a guest, Xiang Yang said with a smile: "Song is always an expert in this field, why don't you just tell us?"

Song Guoning smiled and said: "The tradition of eating crabs in our country has a long history."

"Yes, people ate crabs in the Ming Dynasty. I watched TV. The first person to eat crabs was Shen Wansan, the richest man in Ming Dynasty. Shen Wansan made a lot of money from hairy crabs." Fang Youqun shouted.

"Fang Youqun, shut up and don't disturb Mr. Song's train of thought." Chen Qingsheng shouted.

"My train of thought is not so easily disrupted." Song Guoning said with a smile: "This little brother is wrong. Shen Wansan is not the first person to eat crabs."

"Not Shen Wansan? Who is that?" Fang Youqun asked.

Song Guoning looked at Xiang Yang and said with a smile, "Do you know this question, Boss Xiang?"

Xiang Yang shook his head, "Who was the first to eat crabs? I'm afraid even historians who specialize in this area can't tell for sure, but I know that the earliest record of eating crabs is "Zhou Li."

"Zhou Li" records a food called "Crab Xu", which is the earliest edible record of crabs in the world.

"You are right, the earliest record of edible crabs is from "Zhou Li", from which we can see that as early as 2,000 years ago, our ancestors had regarded crabs as a kind of food. " Song Guoning praised.

"But the era of "Zhou Li" is too long after all, and it only records the word 'crab'. Whether this so-called crab is actually a crab is still to be verified." Xiang Yang said with a smile: " For the first time, the document that clearly records that crabs can be eaten, and clarifies the cooking method of crabs, as far as I know, will be postponed to the Northern Wei Dynasty."

In the "Qi Min Yao Shu" of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the "Tibetan crab method" of marinating crabs was introduced in detail. This method of eating has continued to this day. The price of a dish of Tibetan crab in the Swan Hotel in the first-tier city of Yangcheng was as high as 1,028 yuan. This dish fascinated countless people at the time.

Li Chao said proudly: "You mean Tibetan crabs, right? My hotel chef can cook this dish. If you want to eat it, I invite you."

"Let's wait for the Binhai Hotel to open." Xiang Yang said with a smile.

"That's something you have to try. Although "Qi Min Yao Shu" was written in the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was also in the Wei and Jin Dynasties that eating crabs became a leisurely cultural enjoyment. Crab products are inherited from the Northern Wei Dynasty." Zhou Lili said with a smile.

"Is it really like this?" Fang Youqun muttered, "Why do I know it's not like this?"

Li Chao thought Fang Youqun was very interesting, so he asked with a smile, "Then what do you know?"

Fang Youqun glanced at Xiang Yang, saw Xiang Yang nodded, and signaled that he could say whatever he wanted, and he immediately said: "I saw on TV that Shen Wansan, the richest man in Ming Dynasty, was the first to eat crabs. He thought crabs were delicious, and then everyone started eating crabs." For those who eat crabs, it was also said on TV that in the Ming Dynasty, crabs were used to scare ghosts and gods. Some people picked up dried crabs and used them as artifacts to exorcise evil spirits. If someone was sick, they would borrow that crab and hang it on the Exorcism on the door."

Xiang Yang rolled his eyes, "That's not the Ming Dynasty, it's the Northern Song Dynasty. Although I haven't seen Shen Wansan, the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, I know that the incident you mentioned is an incident recorded in the "Mengxi Bi Tan" in the Northern Song Dynasty. It should have been copied into the play by the screenwriter of Shen Wansan, the richest man in Ming Dynasty, this is an artistic process, which supports Shen Wansan's power."

Xiang Yang directly put his hand into the fishing net, and grabbed a crab with embroidered ridges whose back shell was more than ten centimeters wide.

Chen Qingsheng hurriedly shouted: "Brother Yang, you wear gloves."

"No need." Xiang Yang played with the embroidered crab, "I dare to catch a killer crab, if I can still be hurt by an embroidered crab, then I should really go back to embroider."

Chen Qingsheng also caught a crab from the fishing net, he asked Xiang Yang, "Captain, what to do with the embroidered crab?"

Xiang Yang and the others usually put crabs in living water tanks to raise them every time they catch them, or tie the crabs' bodies firmly with ropes, and then put them in water tanks to raise them.

The reason why you want to keep it is because crabs can only eat live ones. Dead crabs are poisonous. When the crab is dying or dead, the histamine in the crab shell will decompose to produce histamine, and histamine is a poisonous substance. , as the time of crab death becomes longer, the amount of histamine in the crab body will increase, and this toxin will remain even if it is heated.

However, the crab with embroidered ridges is itself a poisonous crab, so Chen Qingsheng didn't know what to do with it.

He was not sure what Xiang Yang was doing with these crabs.

Xiang Yang threw a crab with embroidered ridges into the water tank, "What can I do with it? Of course, it is kept. Hurry up and get more water tanks out. These embroidered crabs can only be raised in water tanks alone, and they cannot be kept in the water tank." Go to the living water tank."

"Brother Yang, you can't eat these crabs. Why are you keeping them? You can't sell them for money." Fang Youqun complained.

"What do you know?" Xiang Yang said with a smile: "Who said that crabs can only be sold for money? You can ask these bosses to see how many are willing to accept these crabs."

Fang Youqun immediately looked at Li Chao, "Boss Li, you work in a hotel, so you definitely don't want these?"
