Mu Yangling insisted on planting sweet potatoes because Chen Ming had bought a lot of noodles during the new year. Only then did Mu Yangling think of sweet potato noodles.
Sweet potatoes were indeed not easy to preserve, but if they were made into sweet potato powder, they could be kept for a long time after drying.
Even if they could not eat this for every single meal, alternating it with coarse grains would greatly relieve the shortage of grains.
Only then did Mu Yangling remember that in the past, she had always been focused on how to grow grains and increase the production of grains, but she had forgotten to develop the ways to eat various foods. For example, corn could not only be crushed to make porridge, but it could also be crushed into corn flour to make corn buns and pancakes.
Although she did not know if they needed to add other flour or something, considering there were so many people in this world, surely someone could figure it out?
