Chapter 163: Bone Soup (2)
The main component of shells is calcium carbonate, which is the main component of "calcium tablets" used to supplement calcium on modern Earth.
Swallowing shells raw is a bit bloody. Modern calcium tablets are also processed, and the intake must be strictly controlled. Long-term consumption should be avoided, otherwise it is likely to cause stones.
However, considering the recovery of Ye's leg bones from yesterday to today, adding a certain amount of calcium carbonate to this meal should not cause an overdose.
She ground off all the colored parts of the shell, leaving only a small milky white flake the size of a fingernail.
Then smash it with a stone and put the crumbs directly in.
Ye was stunned by this operation, and even his tone was a little incoherent, "This... did I see it right just now? You put... shells, can this be eaten?"
Eating bones is to replenish the body with like nourishment, and it is ultimately for the recovery of one's own bones, which is acceptable ideologically.
But this shell...is it edible?
Could it be that Xia Xia actually wanted to add salt, but took the wrong one?
However, compared to Ye's surprise, the audience in the live broadcast room accepted the "eating shells" operation well.
[Isn't it true that calcium carbonate is the only real calcium supplement? I've never heard of bone soup or anything like that.]
[I guess it's because of a bone injury, so they're eating bones? But adding shells is fine.]
[Hahaha, it sounds fantastical, but...it really is the truth.]
[I’m a fan, this anchor is really good! 】
"That's right. Your current situation is quite special, so adding some shells to the soup is to help your body recover. Just think of it as medicine." Xia Tian put the crushed bones in as well. "Cook it with these bones. Don't worry, you don't need to eat the scraps. We'll filter them out later."
When the soup in the stone pot boiled, Xia Tian turned the stove to low heat and told him to pay attention to the heat. "There is another thing to pay attention to when making bone soup. It must be simmered slowly over low heat. Don't rush. You watch the fire first and add firewood little by little. I'll go check on the two rabbits."
Seeing Ye nod to show that he understood, she wiped her hands, turned and went into the cave to look for the two rabbits.
Early morning is when animals are least alert, so Si Ye usually hunts in the early morning and then comes back in the morning. This is a tacit understanding that has been formed between them.
It was still early, Si Ye was no longer in the cave, and the smell had faded. Without the threat of bloodline suppression, the two rabbits were obviously much more lively than when they first met yesterday.
One is gray and the other is brown, both are chubby. They were hiding in the corner and playing with each other, and they didn’t even notice Xia Tian approaching.
However, their activeness also indicates one thing, that is, the rhizomes of the so-called devil's grass are actually non-toxic and can also serve as a source of energy for herbivores.
But to be on the safe side, Xia Tian decided to add a larger amount and try again.
If the result is normal this time, then she can eat it with confidence.
The same portion of fresh raw food and boiled food were fed to the two rabbits respectively.
There was nothing wrong with it except that he was a little overfed. Xia Tian observed it for a while, and after confirming that there was no problem for the time being, she turned around and left.
Back in the kitchen, I could smell the rich and mellow aroma of bone soup from a distance, which made me salivate.
If you have calcium tablets at home, you can check to see if the main ingredient is calcium carbonate. Hahaha. Theoretically, eating shells and eggshells can supplement calcium, but they are too hard, so it is not recommended. And not everyone needs to supplement calcium. Be careful of kidney stones from excessive calcium supplementation!
