I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating


62 Spicy Snails

“Second Sister-in-law, don’t worry. This thing will definitely be edible!” Ji Zhao’s face was filled with confidence.

She held the scissors and quickly removed the snails’ tails.

That’s right, the dish she was going to make was a must-have side dish for summer-

Spicy snails!

“Ah Tao, I’ve already peeled the garlic.” Second Sister-in-law Shen quickly handed the peeled garlic to Ji Zhao.

“Thank you, Second Sister-in-law!” Ji Zhao smiled sweetly and began to make this delicious side dish.

First, she washed the snails that had spat out sand and left them aside.

Then, she began to mince the condiments. The peeled garlic was cut into cubes with the ginger and millet peppers. Then, she stir-fried these spices in cold oil over a medium fire to produce a fragrance. Then, she added a spoonful of honey sauce and stir-fried them again to produce an even richer fragrance.

She quickly added the snails, then added a suitable amount of cooking wine, soy sauce, and rice wine to stir-fry.

Finally, she poured boiling water into the pot and stewed it for 15 minutes.

Before thickening the sauce, she sprinkled a little salt and add the diced green pepper.

When she took it out of the pot and placed it on the plate, she sprinkled some scallions.

“Smells good!”

Second Sister-in-law Shen could not help but swallow her saliva. However, when her gaze landed on the plate of spicy snails, she became more suspicious.

“Ah Tao, how do we eat this? The shell on the outside is quite hard. There’s no way to bite it directly, right?” Second Sister-in-law Shen once again had deep doubts about this delicacy.

Until Ji Zhao showed her a bunch of long and thin wooden sticks.

“Use this!” Ji Zhao smiled and demonstrated. “Second Sister-in-law, look. We’ll grab a snail in one hand and hold this small wooden skewer in the other. Then, we’ll pick out the snail meat from here, but the end won’t be edible.”

As a veteran foodie, Second Sister-in-law Shen understood immediately.

Soon, the snail shells in front of her piled up into a small mountain.

Second Sister-in-law Shen’s mouth was covered in oil, and her cherry lips were slightly swollen.

When she wanted to continue eating, Ji Zhao quickly stopped her.

“Second Sister-in-law, although this spicy snail is delicious, pregnant women shouldn’t eat too much,” Ji Zhao hurriedly explained. “I’ll make other delicious food in a couple days. You can eat more.”

“Let me eat half a bowl more?” Second Sister-in-law Shen looked at her eagerly and asked anxiously, “Or another ten?”

Second Sister-in-law Shen did not expect that such an ordinary-looking snail would become so delicious in Ji Zhao’s hands!

“Snail are creatures that grow in water. The internal coolness is stronger, and pregnant women really can’t eat too much. Second Sister-in-law, I can’t risk your body,” Ji Zhao said firmly. “You really can’t eat anymore.”

“Alright then…” Second Sister-in-law Shen reluctantly put down the small wooden stick in her hand, but she was still a little unsatisfied. “Then Ah Tao, there’s still so much left. What do you plan to do with it?”

“Bring it to the county city and sell it to Second Manager You.” Ji Zhao smiled gently. “Second Sister-in-law, what kind of pastries do you want to eat? I’ll bring them for you when I come back.”

“No need.” Second Sister-in-law Shen quickly waved her hand. “I haven’t finished the pastries Mother brought me last time! Besides, I don’t want to always take advantage of you~”

“We’re all family. Second Sister-in-law, you’re being too polite.” Ji Zhao couldn’t help but smile, and her eyes became gentler.

“Then bring me a packet of sour fruit? I want to eat something sour.”

“Okay!”

After arriving at the county city, Second Shopkeeper You was once again impressed by Ji Zhao’s culinary skills.

“I didn’t expect this river snail to be edible.”

“Second Manager You, although this spicy snail is delicious, there are some taboos when eating it.”
