The two rested for a while before continuing to dig up bamboo shoots.
"How long can bamboo shoots last?" Qiao Duo'er asked seriously.
She could almost see the dark days ahead, which would be filled with winter shoots every day.
Though bamboo shoots could be fried, sautéed, braised, stir-fried, or stewed in countless ways, no matter how they were prepared, they were still bamboo shoots. Could she not become sick of them?
Shoots are lean, and they definitely need to be stir-fried in fatty oil, which would also mean soaking up a lot of grease. Consuming such a large amount of fats could be a significant burden on the body.
Tan Zhenghong thought for a moment before replying, "Shoots can last for more than a month if they're wrapped in their husks and baked by a fire. If turned into dried shoots, they can last even longer."
Qiao Duo'er immediately dug up a month's worth of shoots so that they wouldn't have to climb the mountain to dig every day.
