With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

When Zhou Yue was picking wild vegetables in the mountains, she suddenly saw a plant that looked particularly familiar.

This plant is neither a tree nor a grass, but is more like a shrub.

There is a long upright stem with many leaves on it.

Zhou Yue recognized it at a glance. It was cassava, because this was what her grandmother grew at home in her previous life.

Zhou Yue approached the cassava plant, dug in the ground with her hands, and found the cassava roots underneath.

This cassava must have been growing for several years. The rhizome underneath is very large and cannot be dug up by hand. It requires a hoe.

Sister Chunyan, who was picking wild vegetables, saw Zhou Yue picking at this thing and asked in confusion.

"Xiao Yue, why are you digging this up? You can't eat it. It will upset your stomach!"

Cassava is indeed poisonous and must be fully cooked. Otherwise, eating it will cause stomach upset at best and life-threatening at worst.

Zhou Yue smiled and pointed at some exposed cassava roots.

"Sister Chunyan, this is cassava, you can eat it!"

“Cassava?”

Sister Chunyan scratched her head, obviously not knowing what this thing was.

"I don't know what this thing is called, but it's really poisonous. Villagers have dug this up and eaten it before, and ended up vomiting and having diarrhea!"

When Zhou Yue heard this, she felt a little strange. Why didn't everyone recognize cassava?

Although cassava is not as common as sweet potato, it should also be a traditional crop.

Zhou Yue was a little confused, so she asked the system.

[Tongzi, isn't cassava a traditional crop in our country? Why don't people recognize it? ]

After checking the information, the system quickly got the answer.

[Sister Yueyue, cassava is different from sweet potatoes and is not a traditional crop in our country! It was introduced from tropical areas of Brazil in the 1920s, and it has only been about ten years since then.]

After hearing this Zhou Yue understood that cassava had only been introduced to China not long ago, so it was normal for everyone to be unfamiliar with it.

For those who are not aware of the habits of wood, it would definitely be dangerous if they eat it rashly.

If you eat this cassava raw, 100 grams will cause poisoning, and if you eat one or two kilograms, you will die immediately.

Zhou Yue still remembered a news story she had read in her previous life. A family was poisoned after eating cassava, and many members of the family were either killed or injured.

The cassava must be fully cooked, or it can be ground into powder. Cassava powder is not only non-toxic, but also has many uses.

In her previous life, Zhou Yue often used tapioca flour to make various desserts.

Seeing that Sister Chunyan treated the cassava as trash, Zhou Yue had an idea and hurriedly said.

"Sister Chunyan, this thing is called cassava. It is really edible. You got poisoned because you cooked it incorrectly before. You can use this cassava to make flour and make cakes!"

When Sister Chunyan heard this, she was surprised but immediately became happy.

"Is this really edible? That's great! There are a lot of them on this mountain! Let's go back and get a hoe, dig some and bring it home to try!"

So they stopped picking wild vegetables, went down the mountain, got the right tools, and started digging cassava.

Taking the hoe, Zhou Yue came to the location of the cassava plant. He waved the hoe and dug very deep before he finally dug out a large nest of cassava.
