The dry season in Belize is a great time to harvest roots. We have been pulling up cassava from our beds. Each plant has been giving us a generous 10lbs (5kg) of root. Cassava requires immediate processing because it tends to go off after 1 or 2 days. We usually peel a whole load of them in one go, boil them and then store them in the freezer.
This is food security:
This time we had a surprise harvest. Gnome called me out to the veranda and said,
“Surprise!! I found three brains for you!”
He was of course referring to these; elephant foot yam which we have humourously coined “The Brain.”
More Food!!
