The Rise of the European Emperor

"The Rise of the European Emperor ()"!

In fact, potatoes are a better grain than sweet potatoes. Potato noodles are also much better than sweet potato noodles (sweet potato noodles), and are more suitable for making pasta. The nutritional value of sweet potato noodles is far less than that of potato noodles, what? You said that sweet potatoes have higher nutritional value and contain vitamin XX? Sorry, after being dried and powdered, and then steamed, these vitamins are actually almost lost.

As a vegetable, sweet potatoes are really good and rich in vitamins. But for flour grain, it is far inferior to potatoes. Because the sweet potato noodles are not sticky after adding water, they cannot be kneaded, and cannot be made into shapes such as steamed buns and bread. Therefore, it can only be used directly to spread pancakes. If you want to make pasta, such as steamed buns and steamed buns, you need to mix it with other flour before you can use it. The steamed buns that northerners used to eat were made by mixing coarse grains such as sweet potato flour, corn flour, and sorghum flour, then adding water and kneading them into steamed buns. Therefore, sweet potato noodles are classified into coarse grains. But in fact, it is not sweet potato noodles, but real coarse grains such as cornmeal, which make your throat get stuck after eating.

But there is no way, who made the sweet potato noodles unable to make noodles by themselves? Potato noodles are different. It is similar to other wheat flours. It can be mixed with water and then made into steamed buns or even noodles. It is more suitable for eating as a staple food. Therefore, later generations of Huaxia designated potatoes as the fourth staple food, second only to rice, wheat and corn. However, sweet potatoes are not regarded as a staple food.

No way, if sweet potatoes want to be processed into pasta, they need to be matched with other flours. Therefore, it can only be a supplementary food. However, that was in later generations, an era of abundant supplies.

What is this era? It's a good time to eat something! Sweet potato noodles are indeed not suitable for pasta, but so what? Can you not eat when you are hungry?

Moreover, Marin plans to mix sweet potato noodles with a small amount of rye flour and make noodles. Among them, sweet potato noodles account for the majority, and rye noodles account for a minority, which act as adhesives. Then, make steamed buns and pastries or something. In this way, it is easier for the people to accept it.

As for potatoes, it is indeed more suitable as a staple food. However, Marin is not willing to promote it. It would be a disaster if the potato seeds were stolen by the French. Because potatoes are too suitable for the cool and not hot climate in Europe. At that time, food prices will fall, and I will have no money to make. Unlike sweet potatoes, even if they are stolen, most parts of Europe are not suitable for cultivation. This thing is probably only suitable for planting in southern European regions such as Spain because the temperature is high enough.

Moreover, according to spies in Spain, the Spaniards have tried to use sweet potatoes to make flour for food. As a result, I had to give up because of the failure of adding water and kneading the noodles. Then, sweet potatoes are naturally out of fashion and can only be used as a food supplement. But the Spaniards don't know that sweet potatoes can also be made into pasta by adding some other flour. Of course, Marin would not remind them either.

Therefore, Marin's plan is to let the Taino people grow part of the rye while planting sweet potatoes. Then, rye flour is mixed with sweet potato noodles to make pasta. Rye grows more lushly than weeds, and weeding is not used much, and management is relatively simple. And sweet potatoes, it's a match made in heaven.

...

In addition to being a staple food, Marin has another plan-making wine from sweet potatoes in the future!

Well, it is the legendary "sweet potato burn".

Sweet potato (sweet potato) wine production rate is not high, three catties of sweet potatoes is equivalent to one catty of rice wine yield. However, the yield of sweet potatoes is high! These days, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu is ten times that of rice. So what if the wine yield is one-third of that of rice? Converted down, the wine yield per mu of sweet potatoes is more than three times that of rice per mu.

Of course, sweet potatoes are not good to drink, just to taste the taste of wine. But this is not a problem. Marin plans to introduce some Japanese farmers to grow rice in the future, and mix some rice to make sweet potato wine, which will taste better.

Moreover, sweet potatoes are not tasty, so they can be blended. You can add some maple syrup or something, so the taste will come up.

In addition, for the hairy people in Eastern Europe in this era, it doesn't matter if the taste of sweet potato roast is not good. The Maozi even drink alcohol mixed with water to their satisfaction, they don't mind drinking sweet potato burnt.

Even, because the sweet potato roast is cheaper, they will like it more. Because, you guys are poor...

The poor want to drink strong alcohol? It's not easy in this age! After all, food prices in Europe are so expensive!

And the low-cost sweet potato burn just gave them the opportunity to buy more spirits, how could they be unhappy?

Marin is also very happy. In this way, he can save a lot of food. After all, the price of food is so expensive, it is really a waste to use it to make wine. In the past, there was no population and no way to consume food, so wine was made from food.

But now, with Ross immigrants and Indian serfs, food is in short supply. But the spirits business needs to be done, so it is a good choice to use high-yield sweet potatoes instead of rye to make wine.

Of course, beer or something, there is no way, it still has to be brewed with rye. After all, sweet potatoes don't make beer. In addition, the "Royal Salute" provided to the nobles must also be brewed with rye. But there are not many nobles, so the consumption of rye is also limited. On the contrary, the ordinary spirits supplied to ordinary people are relatively large, and the consumption of rye is astonishing. With sweet potato burning, Marin would rather lower the price and save some food.

In the era of food shortage, sweet potato burning is almost the only choice for alcoholics. Like during the Anti-Japanese War, because many farmers fled or were killed, food was extremely scarce. At that time, if you want to drink, you can only burn sweet potatoes. For example, in "Bright Sword", what Li Yunlong usually drinks is sweet potato burn. Even, because he promised to burn half a catty of sweet potatoes, the gunner Zhuzi got excited and directly killed the command post of the Sakata Regiment with one shot.

Therefore, in the era of food shortage, it is more cost-effective to use sweet potatoes to make wine. If people from other countries in this era knew that Beihai used a large amount of rye to make spirits, they would probably want to strangle Marin to death. What the hell, more than half of the bread everyone eats is made of sawdust, soil and the like, and you actually use so much rye to make wine... Come, come, look at my black baguette, which is as hard as a brick, Smash your dog's head!

However, the taste of sweet potatoes is really bad. Therefore, Marin wondered whether to gather a group of brewing masters to study the blending process. For example, blending the wine with the best taste with sweet potato burn...

The purity of the sweet potato burn is a little higher, close to alcohol. Then, take low-alcohol wine and blend it with sweet potatoes. In this way, the degree is increased, but the taste of the wine is retained... Well, this matter has a lot to do...

As for the easy to get drunk after mixing liquor and wine? Is this a problem? Many alcoholics drink, don't they just try to get drunk? So, not a problem. Even, Marin plans to add some sucrose to the wine, using the sweetness to cover up the bad taste of sweet potatoes. And this can be regarded as finding a place to consume Cuban sucrose. Moreover, it is easy to drink too much wine with added sugar without knowing it, which just increases consumption. As for harming the body, harmful to health or something, Marin doesn't care. If you want to be healthy, you'd better not drink alcohol...

Marin did the math. If the planting method with three fertilizers is used, the yield of sweet potatoes will be at least four to five thousand catties per mu, which is equivalent to ten times the current yield of rye per mu in Beihai. However, the wine yield of rye is not as good as that of rice, and the wine yield of sweet potatoes is one-third of that of rice... Therefore, the wine yield of one mu of sweet potatoes is three or four times that of one mu of rye, which is definitely a good business.

What's more, the sweet potato distiller's grains left over from brewing sweet potatoes can also be used as feed to feed pigs... a proper industrial chain... not only can provide white wine, but also produce a lot of pork. The yield of sweet potatoes is not high, so there are more distiller's grains, and there are more pigs that can be raised. At that time, the North American colony will inevitably become a major producer of wine and meat...
