Steps 1

Kill turtle: turtle head and neck bloodletting, this step is not documented, to the husband out of the horse, you need to be careful with your hands by the turtle bite. After bleeding, hand peeled off a thin layer of skin floating on the shell. The picture is already peeled. Then take a sharp knife and cut the turtle's stomach into crosses. As the shell is too hard, you can take an auxiliary tool to tap the back of the knife to help. (This step is best done by two people.)

Step 2

One person presses the knife while the other uses a stick to tap the back of the knife.

Step 3

The hardest part of killing the turtle is done.

Step 4

To get rid of the internal organs, this is the female snapper, there are a lot of snapper eggs, a sin. (Female snappers have short tails, male snappers have long tails)

Step 5

Use a medium normal sized scissors to remove the butter (too big scissors are not good for cutting). Wild snapper oil is a little bit yellow. Farmed snapper butter is a little whiter in color. This butter is distributed in the area of the four legs. It is important to cut all of it cleanly so that it doesn't taste fishy when you eat it.

Step 6

Patience is needed to remove the butter, the more butter the farmed snapper has. The wild one is a little less. Then, just like killing chickens, the back of the turtle has intestines, liver, bitter gall bladder of these internal organs, all removed. Pay special attention to the bitter gall don't cut through, or eat a bitter flavor. The black piece in the picture is the bitter gall.

Step 7

The cleaning of the turtle is complete, and the red meat inside is ready to eat. The tail is also to be cut open to remove the egg sack of the snapper. The head to remove the turtle's teeth two. (Upper and lower one each) The internal organs are gone. Rinse it well.

Step 8

Tilt up to plate. Since this one is quite big, I can't fit it in my pressure cooker at home. So I used a steamer. The steamer is slow and should be filled with water to at least one-third, or 40% of the way to the steamer. (Pressure cooker high heat to medium heat a *** 30 minutes, however, the steamer to 1 hour 20 minutes, the first 20 minutes of high heat, followed by 1 hour of medium heat)

Step 9

Four slices of ginger, a handful of green onions, green onions can be stuffed with the stomach.

Step 10

Pour a little yellow wine.

Step 11

After an hour and a half to eat, because there is no salt, eat the meat is another dip in soy sauce. The soup is very tasty, if you can use a soup bowl, you can drink more soup.
