Chapter 751 The Power of Potatoes (1)
"Oh! Why don't you just try it? I have to save this for my son and daughter-in-law." Old lady Liu blinked and put the shredded potatoes in the cupboard.
Old Madam Wang rolled her eyes at her and said, "Pooh."
Old Mrs. Wang pulled the few potato shreds in the bowl into her mouth, but she swallowed them before she could even taste them.
She was really unsatisfied, but seeing the behavior of Old Lady Liu, Old Lady Wang couldn't do anything about her.
"Why are you hiding? How can you be so promising!" Old Lady Wang was annoyed by her old friend's shabby appearance.
"If it were you, you would definitely only give me one!" Old Lady Liu rolled her eyes at her, as if they didn't know each other. They had been friends for decades and she knew the other person's character very well.
Old Madam Wang: “…” There was no way to refute it, it was indeed like that.
"Hurry up and try the sweet one!" Old Lady Wang urged.
"Why are you in such a hurry!" Old Lady Liu snorted, picked up a piece of sweet potato and put it in her mouth. It was soft, sticky and sweet, and tasted better than pastries.
But sweet things are precious. Old Lady Liu thought of her little grandson. Even if the grandson liked it very much, she would not eat it after eating one piece.
"Give me a piece." Old Lady Wang said quickly when she saw that she was about to put it into the cabinet again.
Old Lady Liu glared at her for a long time, but still reluctantly picked up a piece for her, which was the smallest piece among all the potato pieces.
Old lady Wang also knew that sugar was expensive, so she didn't argue with her. In fact, she didn't like sweets. Firstly, she couldn't afford them, and secondly, her taste had changed as she got older, so she really didn't like them.
After tasting a small piece, she found the sweetness moderate and not too sweet. In addition, the potato was soft and sticky, so she couldn't help wanting to eat another piece.
"This is better than any cake in town! I didn't expect that potatoes can be eaten in so many ways." Old Lady Wang praised, she was really impressed by this humble thing.
"When we stew meat at home, we can put potatoes in it. They will absorb the juice and have the taste of meat." Ji Xiaomu said with a smile.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up.
"Is that true? Oh my! These potatoes are really good! I'll try them when I get home!"
"If the stew tastes like meat, the meat from that meal can be eaten for several meals."
"Every time we buy meat, there is never enough to go around. The kids at home always complain about it. I'll go try it later!"
The women outside the door were so excited that they seemed to be able to eat meat right now. Ji Xiaowu couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "I feel like I made these three dishes, but I can't make you like the last one!"
"No, no, we like all the methods you proposed! It's just that the last one is the most practical and the best!" Old Lady Wang said with a smile.
"That's right. After you said that, I wanted to ask my son to buy some meat and stew it for them today!" said Old Lady Liu.
"You can actually try it. You can also try it when you can, because this thing doesn't have much taste, so if you give it a little flavor it will become delicious!" Ji Xiaowu smiled, "There are many ways to cook it, not just what I said."
"But I have only tried these few methods so far." Ji Xiaomu's words made all the women think about it involuntarily.
Not long after the crowd dispersed, the smell of meat wafted through the village.
The old ladies who got the recipe today became more and more excited as they thought about it when they got home. Finally, they couldn't help but asked their daughters-in-law to go out and buy some meat. They stewed a pot of meat on the spot and threw potatoes into it according to the method that Ji Xiaomu said.
