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

Zhou Yue nodded seriously and said.

"Cassava can really be ground into flour, and it produces more flour than sweet potatoes. One pound of cassava can produce four ounces of flour."

Cassava has a very high starch content, even more so than sweet potatoes and lotus roots.

According to the ratio of one pound of cassava to four ounces of flour, these two hundred pounds of cassava can produce eighty pounds of cassava flour!

These cassava flours can also be made into cassava vermicelli. One pound of cassava flour can make nine taels of cassava vermicelli.

When you have cassava vermicelli, you can put some in your cooking. The delicious fish soup with vermicelli will be so delicious.

In modern times, many people feel that cassava vermicelli is not as good as sweet potato vermicelli.

In fact, cassava vermicelli tastes very good and is also very nutritious.

In modern times, it is common to use cassava vermicelli to impersonate sweet potato vermicelli.

In fact, it’s not because cassava vermicelli is bad, but because the cost of sweet potato vermicelli is too expensive.

The cost price of pure sweet potato vermicelli without additives is more than ten yuan per pound.

Vermicelli made from cassava is quite cheap, only two or three yuan per pound.

The reason why the prices of the two are so different is that cassava has a high yield and few people eat it.

Cassava is a staple food in Africa and is eaten almost every day.

In 21st century China, few people use cassava as their staple food.

Not many people eat cassava, but its yield is indeed amazing. One acre of land can easily produce several thousand kilograms.

As a result, the price of cassava is very cheap nowadays, and cassava vermicelli is naturally cheap as well.

Much of the above knowledge is from the system and Zhou Yue’s popular science.

After Zhou Yue knew this, she thought to herself that the sweet potato vermicelli she bought in her previous life for a few dollars per pound were probably fake cassava vermicelli.

After peeling all the cassava skins, Sister Chunyan asked.

"Xiaoyue, what should we do with this thing next?"

"It's just like making sweet potato flour. Grind them first, then filter out the juice and let it settle."

In modern times, grating cassava would be a very simple step.

Cut the cassava into small pieces and put them into the grinder.

After plugging in the electricity and waiting for a while, the cassava will be ground into powder.

But in this day and age, there is no such machine!

Zhou Yue was thinking about how to grind the cassava.

Sister Chunyan went back to the house and took out some tools, which were the crushers of this era.

When Zhou Yue saw what was in Sister Chunyan's hand, she sighed that the working people were really wise!

The tool is made of a thin sheet of iron that is about the size of a book.

After hammering the iron sheet with iron nails many times, one side became concave and the other side had many sharp protrusions.

Place the cassava on those sharp protrusions and grind it by sliding it back and forth.

This tool is really useful and can grind things into very fine particles. However, you need to use force with your hands and your arms will feel sore after using it for a long time.

Fortunately, with the help of the NPC in the yard, the two hundred kilograms of cassava were all ground before lunch.

The afternoon job is to wash out the starch from the cassava crumbs.

Sister Chunyan brought a few clean cloth bags and put the ground cassava crumbs into the bags.

He also brought out several large basins and filled them with clean well water.

Scrub the cloth bag containing the crumbs in a basin to wash out all the starch.
