Bai Wutong picked up the scraper she had invented and planned to scrape the tapioca skin.
Chu Tianbao took it from her. “I’ll do it.”
He was afraid that a little work would tire her out. Bai Wutong was helpless but also felt happy. “Okay.”
Chu Tianbao held the scraper and peeled five tapiocas at the speed of lightning. Meanwhile, the others had just finished peeling one.
Lin Yue was flustered, afraid that if he missed any steps, he would not be able to personally make delicious food for Qingfeng.
Bai Wutong wanted to teach everyone how to cook tapioca, so she waited patiently for them to finish peeling the tapioca.
Sheng Huaixuan and the others stood at the side with carbon paper and charcoal pens and carefully recorded Bai Wutong’s instructions.
If the tapiocas were edible and tasted good, they could plant them in large quantities next year.
The local production was already so high without careful cultivation. In the following year’s harvest, Sheng Huaixuan could even sell them to the Central Plains at a high price through the caravan stores.
After all, the crops that were common here would become rare in the Imperial City because of the difference in climate.
After the tapioca skin was peeled clean, Bai Wutong asked Chu Tianbao to put it in water to wash it clean. Then, she added water and placed it in the pot. At this moment, Bai Wutong said to everyone who looked curious, “You must open the lid and boil it. Otherwise, the poison won’t be released.”
Everyone followed Bai Wutong’s instructions.
After the water boiled, she changed it and boiled again. Bai Wutong poked the tapioca with her chopsticks and emphasized to everyone, “You have to make sure that the tapioca is completely cooked before it can be eaten. If it’s half-cooked and a child eats it, it will be fatal with just a small amount.”
Hearing this, everyone looked at the white and tender tapioca in the pot and trembled in fear.
Soon, the tapioca was ready. Bai Wutong scooped it out of the pot and instructed repeatedly, “You must not eat this boiled tapioca water.” Everyone nodded, feeling as frightened as if cooking tapioca was a war.
Bai Wutong could tell that everyone was nervous. She smiled and said, “Actually, it’s like mushrooms. It’s not very troublesome to cook two more times.”
Hearing Bai Wutong’s words, everyone suddenly accepted it and remembered it more easily.
Bai Wutong looked at the cooked tapioca on the chopping board and said, “Without the poison, the tapioca can be used to make soup or stir-fry vegetables. It can also be eaten as a staple food.”
“The tapioca is no different from ordinary ingredients. Everyone can use it on their own. ”
“Let’s experiment first and see if the tapioca is edible and poisonous.”
“Now, please help us test it, Doctor Wen.”
After Bai Wutong finished speaking, she couldn’t help but laugh.
These lines made it seem like she was holding a press conference for a new product.
Under everyone’s gazes, the Wen Renhua came to the chopping board and took out his special silver needles.
Everyone held their breath and did not blink, afraid that they would miss anything.
The moment the silver needle was pulled out, everyone leaned closer to take a look.
It did not turn black!
This meant that the tapioca was no longer poisonous.
This was too exciting.
Wen Renhua looked at the silver needle and announced to everyone, “It’s not poisonous and can be eaten.”
As soon as he said this, everyone finally felt relieved and cheered loudly.
“Madam Bai! Madam Bai! Madam Bail”
Lu Ye was so excited that tears flowed out.
If they had known that there was such a way to remove the poison of the tapioca, they would not have starved for so long and so many of their brothers would not have died.
Sheng Huaixuan gestured with his eyes. The chef used the steamed tapioca to make stir-fried tapioca, tapioca cakes, chicken soup, and French fries in front of everyone…
The few chefs who were busy the whole time, after a while, laid a table of sumptuous tapioca food in front of everyone.
Everyone was dazzled and swallowed their saliva when they smelled the tempting fragrance.
As expected of a chef, it was so fragrant that everyone’s noses were about to fall off.
Lu Ye ate with them. Thinking of his brothers’ tragic deaths after eating the tapioca, he hung his chopsticks in the air and hesitated.
Since Wen Renhua said that it was not poisonous, it must be safe for consumption.
The others picked up a piece of delicious food made of tapioca without hesitation and put it into their mouths. They immediately revealed blissful expressions.
Sheng Huaixuan placed a piece of stir-fried tapioca in his mouth. The tapioca was soft and sweet, with rich fibers and an excellent taste.
Be it as a staple food or vegetables, they were very suitable and was filling.
Sheng Huaixuan praised Bai Wutong, “It’s no wonder this thing is poisonous. If it wasn’t poisonous, I’m afraid it would have been eaten clean by everyone.”
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “We can set off a day later and dig up all the surrounding tapiocas. When we reach Baye City, we’ll have a lot of food.”
Sheng Huaixuan agreed. “If that’s the case, aren’t you afraid that the food supply will be delayed on the way?”
Everyone was eating heartily and praising the tapioca. Lu Ye finally overcame his fear of the tapioca and picked up a piece of fries to put in his mouth.
The French fries were crispy and sweet.
In an instant, Lu Ye enjoyed himself!
How could such a delicious thing be poisonous?
He picked up another piece of tapioca meatball and had just opened his mouth to stuff it in when Bai Wutong suddenly asked him, “Deputy General Lu, apart from here, are there tapioca anywhere else?”
Lu Ye was busy answering. Before he could chew carefully, he swallowed the tapioca meatball. “There are more tapioca nearby and some along the way. There were originally tapioca around Baye City. Later on, after we took down the southern frontier, they were cleared out to build houses.”
When they first occupied Baye, they had even cleaned up a lot of tapioca.
Recalling the tender and smooth texture of the tapioca balls in his mouth, Lu Ye felt as though he had lost 100 million yuan.
It was a huge pity.
Bai Wutong smiled and said, “In that case, let’s dig as we go. It will sustain us for a while. When the food that Lord You bought from the Syrian is delivered, the army won’t have to worry about starving.”
When Lu Ye heard this, he was extremely touched. He cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, Madam, for telling us the way to remove the poison of the tapioca. The Marshal will definitely be happy when he finds out.”
Bai Wutong said, “You’re welcome. I just happened to know. We don’t have much food either. Knowing that tapioca can be eaten has also resolved our urgent need for food.”
No matter what, Bai Wutong was knowledgeable and capable.
Lu Ye thanked her sincerely and was full of respect for Bai Wutong.
The tapioca was delicious, but it was not suitable for pregnant women to eat too much. Bai Wutong took a few sips and felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, so she returned to the tent.
This was the early pregnancy reaction. It would greatly reduce one’s appetite, make one feel nauseous, dizzy, and sleepy.
Chu Tianbao hurriedly took out the sour plum snack and fed it to her mouth.
“Take some and your stomach won’t feel uncomfortable anymore.”
Bai Wutong put the sour plum in her mouth and the disgust was indeed suppressed a lot.
She smiled. “How do you know to give me sour plums?”
Chu Tianbao let Bai Wutong fall into his arms and adjusted her into a comfortable position. “I asked Doctor Gu.”
Bai Wutong’s mind flashed with images of Chu Tianbao listening carefully to Gu Zhongxun’s instructions on what to take note of for pregnant women and his serious expression as he used a small book to record down. She couldn’t help but laugh. “Thank you, Brother Tianbao
Chu Tianbao was stunned. He narrowed his eyes and requested in her ear , ‘Wife, can you call me that again?”
Bai Wutong was in a good mood and satisfied him. “Brother Tianbao, kiss me—”
Chu Tianbao held his breath and naturally had to satisfy his wife’s request wholeheartedly.
‘Wu How could he let his wife down after she called him Brother Tianbao –
