Regular Dried Cassava Slice

Cassava, also known as yucca or manioc, is a root vegetable that is a staple food in many tropical regions, including Indonesia. It is rich in carbohydrates and is often used as a source of energy, especially in areas where other staple foods such as rice are not readily available.

Cassava is also used to make a variety of products, including cassava flour, which is a gluten-free alternative to wheat flour and is used in many traditional Indonesian dishes, such as lontong (steamed rice cake) and martabak (a savory stuffed pancake). Cassava is also used to make tapioca pearls, which are commonly used in desserts such as bubur kacang hijau (mung bean porridge) and es campur (mixed shaved ice).

In addition to its culinary uses, cassava is also used in the production of biofuels, textiles, paper, and animal feed. Cassava is an important crop for many small farmers in Indonesia and other parts of the world, as it is relatively easy to grow and has a high yield, making it an important source of income and livelihood for many communitie
