How to eat scorpions? What do scorpions eat?

If a whole scorpion wants to be used in medicine, it must first be processed, and generally speaking, the processing method of a whole scorpion is to remove impurities, wash and dry. Spring to autumn is a good time to catch the whole scorpion, after the catch, put the whole scorpion into the water to choke to death, and then put the whole scorpion into the pot to boil, generally speaking, we pour the amount of water into the pot as long as the whole scorpion can be covered.

Then put in some salt, it is recommended to have 150 grams of salt for every 500 grams of whole scorpion, and then boil for 3 to 4 hours after putting the salt, and wait until the water in the pot is almost finished, we can check. The main way to check is to pinch the tail end of the whole scorpion with my fingers.

If the whole scorpion after being boiled can still keep it upright and erect after we pinch its tail end with our fingers, and the back is grooved and the abdomen is deflated, it means that the whole scorpion has been processed, we can take out the whole scorpion in the pot, and then put all of them in a ventilated place to dry, and when we need to use the whole scorpion, then rinse the processed whole scorpion with clean water and salt to use.

I've seen people soak in salt water, wash it, drain it, and fry it.

1. Wash the scorpion and soak it in water for 10 minutes.

2. Use a kitchen paper towel to absorb the water on the scorpion's body (you must finish absorbing the water, otherwise Lu Song will splash out the hot oil when you fry it, and it will hurt you), be careful not to break your legs.

3. Put the drained scorpion into the oil pan and fry it until golden brown and ripe.

4. After frying, take the pot and put it on a plate, and be careful to burn the reeds early when eating.
