Traveling through ancient times: Savages are hungry for food

Early the next morning.

The mountains were covered with a thin layer of mist, and the air was lightly shrouded in moisture, making it cool and chilly.

Everyone simply drank some mushroom and egg soup and hurried on their way.

Feng and Xu took Ping An and Xi Le to explore the way, while everyone took tools and went to the forest ahead to build a road.

Sang Tian lowered his head and cleared the bushes on the ground.

As a result, two bright yellow beasts suddenly jumped out from the bushes in front.

Ping An and Xi Le happily wagged their tails and pulled Sang Tian's trouser legs.

"what happened?"

After a while, Feng and Xu quickly returned from the woods.

Always smile.

"Everyone, go and have a look. There's a large field of taro up ahead!

The area is more than twice as large as our tribe's taro field!"

Sang Tian and his tribesmen's eyes immediately lit up.

This is good, taro is quite filling. It's large, high in sugar, starch, carbohydrates, and a lot of other nutrients!

There were already a lot of people in the tribe, but now with these five or six hundred more people, it is definitely not enough.

This taro was discovered just right!

The few tribes that had just joined had obviously tasted the soft, sweet taste of taro, and their eyes were filled with surprise.

What special abilities do these Tianlang people have?

How come finding food is as easy as drinking water for them?

The group immediately quickened their pace and followed Ping An and Xi Le who had rushed out.

From a distance, Sang Tian saw a large field of emerald green heart-shaped leaves.

When the breeze blows, the heart-shaped leaves create waves, making a crisp and pleasant sound.

Yong and the others ran to the taro bush and looked around happily.

Sang Tian also stepped forward.

However, when Sang Tian walked to the edge of the taro bush, his brows furrowed slightly.

She noticed something was wrong.

After carefully observing the plants growing in this field.

Sang Tian came to an uncertain conclusion in her mind.

So he stretched out his finger and touched the heart-shaped leaf.

And communicated with the system using thoughts.

A cold, mechanical female voice sounded.

[Ding! Araceae, genus Colocasia—ancient taro detected.

Taro likes high temperature and humidity, is not drought-resistant, and is relatively shade-tolerant.

It is rich in starch, vitamin C, B vitamins, calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, magnesium, sodium and other minerals. In addition, taro also contains active ingredients such as plant colloids and mucin.

There are many ways to eat it, such as steaming, cooking porridge, roasting meat, making desserts, etc. It has a soft and sweet taste, soft and glutinous, and sweet but not greasy.

It should be stored in a dry, ventilated, cool place, away from direct sunlight and humid environment.

It was just as she expected!

This large piece is not taro.

But it’s taro!

Taro and taro are so similar.

No wonder the tribesmen thought it was taro when they saw it!

Taro leaves are typically rounded, heart-shaped, and dark green with a glossy, relatively smooth surface and a thick texture. The petioles are mostly green, sometimes tinged with purple, and are thick and long.

Taro leaves are also heart-shaped, but they are generally wider and lighter green than taro leaves. They may have fine hairs on the surface, making them less smooth to the touch. Taro petioles are relatively thin.

Taro plants are generally taller than taro, and usually stay taller for about half a year, which allows taro to photosynthesize better.

And what about the fruits buried underground?

The fruit of taro is generally oval in shape and smaller than taro. The skin is darker in color, mostly brown or dark brown, and the texture on the skin is relatively fine.

Taro fruits come in a variety of shapes, including round and oval, and are generally larger than taro. Their skin is lighter in color, often light brown, and has a relatively rough texture.

Taro is rich in carbohydrates, and its starch granules are small, making it easy to digest and absorb.

The carbohydrate content of taro is also high, but the starch granules are slightly larger than those of taro.

Let’s talk about the taste.

The sweetness of taro is obviously higher than that of taro.

However, this also means that eating too much taro will make you feel sick, and it is not suitable to replace the main food to fill you up. In the morning, I can't eat a single bite.

It is best suited to be made into dessert.

Taro is different, it is much less sweet and you won’t feel sick even if you eat too much. This is very good, and it also has a strong sense of fullness, making it very suitable for filling your stomach.

……

Sang Tian carefully explained his conclusion to Lei and the others.

I also taught everyone how to distinguish taro from taro.

Everyone was also surprised.

They looked so similar that they couldn't tell them apart.

But this means that the tribe now has one more food to fill its stomach.

Naturally, I was in a very happy mood.

There was a smile on every face.

……

So, the Tianlang people marked a location.

Just wait until they are ripe, then come and pick them all!
