Today I saw a news, saying that Ningbo's crayfish sold to 12 yuan, I remember last year this season crayfish to sell to about 26 yuan, I buy 2, 3 pounds at a time to dozens of yuan, this year's price is not even half of it. After all, everyone can eat at home as much as possible at home, the party supper is reduced a lot, even if you want to eat, you will order some takeaway to send to the home to eat, try not to gather.
Although the crayfish is delicious, but it is only in line with the likes of most young people, many elderly people do not like to eat crayfish, my mother said to eat crayfish, rather eat monk crab, meat and paste!
This monk crab is the name of ningbo people, also called yuanbao crab, because the shell is round bald relationship so called monk crab, of course, the shape is also like yuanbao, I don't know if there is this crab in other places, anyway, this crab is very cheap, compared to the ningbo people love to eat white crab is also pike crab, the price of a heaven and an underground, because it does not have the deliciousness of pike crab, but pike crab live to sell to 100 yuan a pound, frozen crab also want 60 yuan a pound, and yuanbao crab only 10 yuan a pound, but only only cream, cheap enough, right?
Yuanbao crab is small, umami is not as good as white crab, but as long as there is a paste, it is still very fat, can not be bought like white crab just steamed and boiled, eat it an original taste of fresh, Yuanbao crab usually to borrow other things to enhance the taste, such as today bought a few yuanbao crab back, with onion ginger fried, green onion to cut into inches, ginger is also cut into almost long ginger shreds, in addition to adding a few cloves of garlic flavor, oil stir-frying into crab pieces stir-fry, condiments use soy sauce, oyster sauce and cooking wine, eat it a bite of onion ginger garlic flavor of crab meat umami, The crab lid is full of yellow and paste, and I think that a few yuan can eat a plate of fried crab is really worth the fare.
Life is not easy, making money is not easy, in a plain life to eat some affordable dishes, for us, more realistic.
