Oh sedapnya...?


Cassava.
CASSAVA.

Danngg that sounds like some Spanish vocab, or similar to cassanova. Apparently this is one type of shrub that is usually found in our daily Malaysian meals. Ok lah, ini la pucuk ubi kayu. mMmmMmmm... usually my mom has em cooked with anchovies. So if you're not good enough to look for the right cassavas, better dont. Leave it to the experts.

There was one time when my friends and I went on to explore the markets in Sabah for some cassavas. Apparently this 'vegetable' is kinda rare here, or its us who didn't know how to look for some. We were planning for a Sarawakian food fiesta in his house, wanted to cook some Sarawakian foods like 'manuk pansuh'(chicken cooked in a bamboo), pucuk ubi(cassava) and some other delicacies. In the end, the planned was, if im not mistaken, scrapped. Basically, preparing the cassavas can be deadly. Thats the honest truth since they're high in cyanide, which can actually cause irreversible paralysis.

Eating too much chilli can be fatal too. Man i like em hot but i need to bring it lower down in consumption... Great trivia is, chilli has lots more vitamin C.

Just a warning, dont take potatoes that have green eyes, sprouts and greenish skins...

A lot of phenomenas that i really want to discover, the sailing stones, the WOW signal... this is a world, undiscovered.

And yeah, Mike posner's album ROCKS. I havent bought the album yet. Its worth the money anyway. :)

Peace you all.:D
