Hello, everyone!
Today I bought dozens of oysters
You see
It's about 50 or 60 of them, I think.
The total cost here is a little over 200yuan.
We now have oysters in Sichuan because they are shipped in from the seaside.
They are a bit more more expensive.
We buy them here at 15yuan per jin.
Each one of them weight about...
Two or three liang (100-150g)
The side stirt is black.
The meat in the middle is light yellow, and this one is light green.
The colour of the meat is different.
The dark green colour is its intestines digest what it eats.
The main ingredient for our oysters is minced garlic.
And also scallions.
Some of chillies.
Those are the main ingredients.
The most important thing to avoid with grilled oysters is the ginger.
All we need is enough of the minced garlic!
Let's chop those up first.
Lots of garlic.
Okay, now I'm going to start mincing the garlic and then the chillies.
Wang Jieping start the fire, make the charcoal ready.
In fact, many people don't know about the trick of this minced garlic.
For grill oysters, the minced garlic should not be too fine.
Make sure it is not chopped too fine.
About this size should be okay.
If you chop it too finely, the garlic will go powdery as soon as you grill it.
It doesn't taste good.
It has no garlic flavour.
The grilled oysters also led to a marriage story.
That's how I met Fen (my wife) !
You guys had a barbecue together?
Not barbecue. Actually I taught her how to do barbecue.
Oh
She came to learn grilled oysters.
She's an apprentice?
Hmm
Now she is an apprentice for life long!
If you guys also want to learn how to do authentic grilled oysters, leave your comments down below.
In the future, I'd like to share with you a more authentic version of grilled oysters with garlic sauce.
The commercial version that you find in the restaurant.
This time it's up to us to do a family version.
Home-style.
Good.
Honey, you still remember?
Remember, I used to mix sauce with a huge bowl.
Is it still possible to mix the sauce?
I've lost the recipe note...
If you give me all the right ingredients, I can mix it!
Good. Now we have the charcoal burning.
And the sauce is ready too.
Now we put oysters on.
Can you hold it, Uncle?
Be careful, you might burn yourself!
I'm back to the old days of grilling oysters again!
The same old tricks.
Yes.
Good. Now that we need to put the sauce on.
Put this garlic sauce that we make on top.
One at a time.
Every oyster gets it.
We rely on this garlic sauce to grill oysters!
If this is without garlic,
Then they are not that good anymore!
Well, now we have to wait.
Wait for it to boil and grill.
The fast ones are already boiling.
When it's ready, get them out.
Then add the chillies and the scallions and it's ready to eat!
Good. Almost there with this one.
Put some of this chilli oil.
Garlic Chillies oil.
It's ready!
Good.
Okay, this is our first batch.
Take a look everybody!
Take a look.
Super appetite!
For now we leave them there.
The second batch is almost there.
Nice.
The ones in the middle.
So good.
How much for twelve of them?
Six years ago it was 68yuan.
68yuan for 12 oysters, it't not enough for one meal.
It shouldn't be that much more expensive now.
Maybe 80 or 90yuan.
Aunt.
Almost there.
Still waiting for these.
That's a lot!
There's another plate there.
Ah, so much to eat.
It's easy for so many people that one person can two or three to finish everything.
This one's ready too.
Oh, that's good.
This one's ready.
Now they are all grilled!
The sun has almost gone down.
I don't care. I'm not gonna wait for you guys. I'll eat it!
Eat, just eat!
I'll try one.
This side is not so hot. They came out first.
Yes.
You can use your hand.
It should be the first time that Auntie eating this.
Wow, this is making my mouth watering!
Mouth is watering!
Delicious!
It's so delicious!
Didn't you say at first that you may not like this?
Mmm. I want to eat them after you grill them!
They were full of flavour with chilli and garlic.
The second coming.
This is so good!
They are slightly salty because...
Oysters are usually served with beer.
And as a late-night snack.
Let me have another one.
I really need to eat 20 to 30 of these!
Hmmm
Whoa.
Take a look at this oyster.
This is a big one!
Hmmm
Look at this oyster!
Oysters are not that rich during this season.
This would been more richer and tastier if you wait a few months.
Mmm. A bit salty.
A little bit.
It will be fishy if it's not salty.
It's good.
Yummy!
Really tasty!
I've been worried about how to eat those.
grilling make them so tasty!
Get the one with less spices.
Nice!
Look at mine...
Your's is also good.
So fat!
Yeah, good.
If I pile up all the shells it can be up to my chest!
Maybe to the chin.
The one you had before was big, but this one is even bigger.
See?
Good.
This is so rich.
Good, really good.
If you guys also like oysters, you can try it at home.
You can also use oven to grill them.
Of course, if you are not a fan of grilling.
You can steam them with garlic sauce just fine.
Put the sauce on and put them into the steamer.
But it doesn't taste as good as this.
Have a look, grilling cause the golden colour on the shell.
The garlic sauce grilled until golden brown.
Take a look at this.
The golden things are garlic, which is also very delicious.
Okay, that's it for this video. Bye!
Nice, really nice.
One more to eat.
Yes.
