Brilio.net - Cassava, also known as sweet potato, is one of the tubers that is rich in important nutrients. According to medicalnewstoday.com, one of the main nutrients in cassava is vitamin K, which plays a role in the formation and development of bone mass.
To get these nutritional benefits, cassava can be consumed directly after being processed with various methods, one of which is by boiling. Boiled cassava is often an alternative to rice because it can make you feel full longer.
Boiling cassava can actually be done in the usual way. However, to get a soft and cracked cassava texture, it turns out to be not as easy as imagined. Many people actually find boiled cassava hard, making it less tasty when eaten.
There is a special technique required to boil cassava to make it soft. If using a regular pot, cassava must be boiled for at least 30 minutes. This long boiling duration can make the use of LPG gas more wasteful.
To speed up the boiling time, some people add salt. Salt is believed to speed up the cassava boiling process, so that the cassava can be soft in 20 minutes.
However, there is another technique that can make the boiling time faster. This technique was shared by TikTok user @mimi_arayzka. In one of her videos, she shows a special technique that can make boiled cassava soft in just 10 minutes.
As reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @mimi_arayzka on Saturday (14/9), it is better to choose cassava that has cracked skin and still has a lot of soil attached. Cassava like this tends to be soft, easy to crack, and also tastes good when cooked.
After that, wash it clean and peel the skin. Don't forget to rub the surface of the peeled cassava with a knife. This aims to remove the bitter taste of the cassava skin that is still attached. If so, cut the cassava into several pieces and set aside first.
If so, prepare water in a pan and boil it until it boils. Then add the cassava that has been cut into pieces. Boil the cassava over high heat for 5 minutes in an open pan.

After 5 minutes, cover the pan and turn off the stove. Let the cassava soak in hot water for 30 minutes. Well, this hot water will continue boiling, making the cassava soft.

Next, open the lid of the pan and turn the stove back on. Then boil the cassava for 5 minutes after the water boils. If it has been boiled for the second time, cover the pan and let it sit for another 7 minutes to make it softer.
