Chapter 593 Best peeled

"The water on the top is poured out, and the starch on the bottom needs to be dried." Jiang Yue continued, "It's a bit like the face-washing part of making Liangpi, which has to be left to settle, and finally the starch on the bottom."

"Um."

"Let's wash it ourselves first and let the family see it. Next time, we won't do it ourselves and hire someone to wash it."

"Um."

Xue Yan just answered again, and the two also came to their door. But they didn't enter the house, but went to the river through the path next to the house, washed a basket of potatoes before entering the house.

Potatoes are best peeled and then cut into small pieces and mashed. So, when they got home, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue peeled the basket of potatoes.

Peel the skin, then cut into small pieces and mash.

When Li Hehua is okay, he will also come to help.

Yu Hongyan stood by and watched. It was uncomfortable to stand, so she sat beside and watched.

Because she is about to give birth in the next few days, Yu Hongyan didn't dare to go anywhere, and her family didn't dare to let her out. At most, she was just wandering around in the yard.

A basket of potatoes, all mashed, didn't even have a pot yet. Jiang Yue added water to the pot, stirred it again, and then filtered it.

The filtrate was poured into a clean empty bucket, and the filtered residue was wrapped in gauze.

The gauze was twisted hard, and white water could come out of the slag.

Then, Jiang Yue put the residue in the gauze back into the basin.

Xue Yan hurriedly picked up the scoop, poured a large scoop of clean water into it, washed the **** well, then filtered it again, filtered out the slag, and poured the filtrate into the bucket again.

I twisted the filter residue wrapped in the gauze again, but still a little white water came out.

This **** naturally still contains starch. Then, Jiang Yue poured the **** of the emery cloth back into the basin, and Xue Yan poured water, washed it, and filtered it again.

After twisting and wrapping the potato dregs in the gauze again, there is no white water coming out. I only mashed a basket of potatoes today, which is not much, so I don’t need to wash it so many times.

Then, Jiang Yue stopped washing the potato dregs, put the potato dregs aside, and when he came back to cook the pig food for the pigs, he could put a piece of the pig food and cook it for the pigs to eat.

All the filtrate is in the same bucket, which is only half a bucket.

Li Hehua helped to carry the bucket to the main room and let it settle in the main room.

In fact, the precipitation settled at night, but because there was no sun at night, so Jiang Yuecai and Xue Yan poured out the water above, leaving only the white precipitation below, after the sun came out the next day. That is potato starch.

This starch still contains water, so it has to be dried in the sun before it can be put away.

Xue Yan had already taken a clean sheet and spread it on a wide wooden board. The wooden board was resting on two benches and placed it in the yard to dry.

Jiang Yue used a spoon to scoop out the starch from the bottom of the bucket one by one, and put it on the cloth sheet to dry it. When it dries a little, you can squeeze it with your hands, and it will disperse into powder at that time. Now because it contains a little moisture, it is sticking together.

Although the starch is small, it has to be dried for a few days, so as not to actually dry.

Besides, it is not summer now, and sometimes the sun is not very good.

While Xue Yan and Jiang Yue were drying starch in their yard, Liu Guixia held a clay pot under the cooking shed and soaked duck eggs in salt water. The duck eggs were bought from the town yesterday. Dip it in, and after a while, there will be salted duck eggs at home.
