Mu Feng carried the corn stalk back, broke the corn when passing by the sheep pen, and threw the whole corn stalk into the sheep pen.
In the past, when sheep were herding, they would plunge into the corn field and nibble on corn leaves if they didn't pay attention to them - sheep not only like to eat salty, but also sweet!
Coincidentally, White Fang happened to be passing by the sheep pen, and when he saw Mu Feng's behavior, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Mu Feng, what are you doing?"
"Hey the sheep!" Mu Feng explained with a smile, "Hey, look, this is corn, and those are corn stalks. Sheep also like to eat!"
"Corn?" White Fang's eyes lit up, and his pretty face was full of wonder, "This is the edible corn you said before, how is it different from the one you brought back?"
"These are not fully ripe yet, they are relatively tender, they can be eaten raw or cooked, you can try them!" Mu Feng handed her a corn.
White Fang raised his eyebrows, holding the corn with bud leaves, looking at Mu Feng shyly: "Do you just eat it raw like this?"
"Of course not!" Mu Feng laughed, "You have to peel off the bud leaves and eat the rice inside!"
It was only then that Bai Ya reacted. Pretty face flushed, and she was a little shy. She peeled off the buds and sniffed it in front of Xiao Qiao's nose, and said strangely, "What kind of taste is this, is it delicious?"
Mu Feng smiled and said, "You will know after you taste it, it's delicious!"
White Fang took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, took a bite, and then stretched his eyebrows, his eyes lit up, and his face was full of surprise: "Ah, it's so sweet!"
"I didn't lie to you!" Mu Feng smiled proudly, "It will be delicious when it's cooked!"
"Can you still cook it?" White Fang was surprised.
"Of course!" Mu Feng said with a smile, "Go and call Uncle Lihu, Uncle Mingguang and the others, and say I'll treat them to boiled corn today!"
"Okay!" White Fang left happily, and after running for a short distance, he did not forget to turn his head and shout to Mufeng playfully, "You have to wait for me to come back and cook the corn!"
Mu Feng said with a smile: "Don't worry, cooking corn is very simple, you can see it!"
"it is good!"
Soon White Fang called out Lihu and Mingguang.
As soon as the two heard that it was Mu Feng who asked them to come over to eat, they swallowed a few times along the way.
They all know that every time Mufeng asks them to try new food, the taste is extremely delicious, something they have never tasted before.
Seeing the two of them coming, Mu Feng first took a piece of corn and handed it to them in two pieces so that they could taste the taste. Then he asked White Fang to peel off the husks, wash them, put them in a clay pot, add water, and start make a fire.
This made White Fang very surprised. She flashed her big eyes and asked, "Brother Mufeng, is it so easy to cook corn, without adding salt or mushrooms?"
"No!" Mu Feng laughed, "This is not soup! But you reminded me that tender corn kernels can be boiled into porridge if they are cut with a knife!"
After saying this, he naturally brought two corns, peeled and washed them, cut off the rice grains with a knife, put them in another pot, and mixed them with water to make porridge.
While cooking with White Fang, he turned to ask Lihu and Mingguang, "How is it, how does the fresh corn taste?"
Li Hu said while nibbling: "
It tasted weird, a little sweet and a little sticky. "
Mingguang also nodded and said, "It tastes good, just a little less!"
Mu Feng smiled and said, "That's good. Our cornfields are full of such corn now, and we can break them down and give them to our clansmen to eat. Whether it's raw or cooked, it can be eaten!"
The two were pleasantly surprised: "Great Chief, do you mean that our tribe has new food?"
"Yeah!" Mu Feng nodded and said, "Let the clan eat more corn, and then mix it with wild vegetables and bamboo shoots. Only by eating all kinds of food can the nutrients in the body be balanced and the lifespan will be longer!"
"Matching, balanced nutrition?" The two obviously did not understand these two words.
But when they heard "the lifespan will be longer", they immediately understood: "Great Chief, you are saying that the lifespan of the meat-eating tribesmen will not be long, right?"
"Yeah!" Mu Feng nodded and said, "The lifespan of eating meat alone is not as long as eating both meat and vegetables! Just like animals in the wild, animals that eat grass have a longer lifespan than those that eat meat."
"Why?" Mingguang asked, "If our people also eat grass, would they live longer?"
Mu Feng laughed dumbly: "How is it possible, no human race has ever eaten grass, we eat vegetables! As for why grass and vegetables have a longer lifespan..."
Mu Feng scratched his head, and frankly, he didn't quite understand.
He only knew that in nature, herbivores generally live longer than carnivores, and in the human world, vegetarians generally live longer than those who like to eat meat.
It's like the monks and nuns in many temples in previous lives are old birthday stars.
Before he could explain, Lihu tapped Mingguang: "Why are you talking so much nonsense, the Great Chief said let us eat corn, then we will eat corn, will the Great Chief still harm us?"
"I didn't mean that!" Mingguang quickly explained.
Mu Feng smiled and waved his hand: "Let's put it this way, eating meat all the time, our body can't stand it, only if we eat meat, vegetables, and whole grains like corn, and meat and vegetables are combined, our lifespan will be reduced. longer, understand?"
"Oh, I understand, I understand!" Mingguang said uncertainly.
Mu Feng laughed dumbly, he guessed that Mingguang didn't understand, he just remembered him
Said to eat all kinds of food together.
It didn't take long for steam to come out of the pot, and the corn was cooked.
The peculiar smell of corn wafted out almost at the same time in the pot of cooking the corn and the pot of cooking the porridge.
"Yeah!" White Fang's eyes lit up, and his beautiful eyes were full of surprises, "Although it's not as fragrant as meat, it smells good too!"
"Of course!" Mu Feng inserted the corn with chopsticks, then handed one to each of the three of them, and said with a smile, "It's a bit hot, blow it before eating!"
The three of them did as they did, and before the corn had cooled down completely, they nibbled at it.
"Mmmm!" White Fang said in a muffled voice as he nibbled at the corn, "cooked corn is delicious!"
Lihu and Mingguang didn't care to talk anymore, they just held the corn and gnawed there!
Mu Feng also picked up a corn, took a deep breath, and said with intoxication: "It's still a familiar taste!"
Then he took a big bite and chewed
, That's why I feel that I haven't tossed in vain these two days.
Then he picked up the clay bowl and gave each of them a bowl of polenta—boiled corn kernels, to be exact.
But it is precisely this kind of thing that can just relieve their choking feeling of eating corn at this time.
The three of them drank the polenta, which was another wonderful taste.
