"El bobo de la yuca" is a Spanish idiom that translates to "the fool of the yuca." In Latin American culture, yuca (or cassava) is often associated with simplicity and basic sustenance. Therefore, calling someone "el bobo de la yuca" implies that they are simple-minded or foolish. It is a colloquial way of referring to someone who is not very bright or who makes silly mistakes.
No. It's fattening
Yuca.
i think it is a vegetable but it is not that good in nutrients unless you are looking for Carbs because that is mostly what is in them. They are delicious though fried, but very fattening so I have that maybe once a year. If you want to fry it then here is a recipe its a great replacement for french fries. * Yuca (cassava) root -- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds * Water -- for boiling * Oil-- for deep frying * Salt -- to taste 1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Peel the hard brown skin from the yuca and cut into large chunks. Avoid the stringy center. 2. Add the yuca to the boiling water and cook for 15-20 minutes. Drain and spread the yuca out on a clean towel. Let steam dry for 10-15 minutes while you heat up the oil. 3. Heat the oil for deep frying until it begins to shimmer, or to about 365°F on a deep frying thermometer. Fry the yuca in batches until it reaches a golden brown. Remove to a paper-towel-lined plate and hold in a warm oven while you fry the remaining batches. 4. Sprinkle with salt and serve. But For a low fat version, toss the boiled yuca with a little oil and bake in a 400°F oven for 15-20 minutes, or until browned. Stir halfway through cooking time. Us Cubans serve this with mojo sauce on the side which is * Good quality olive oil -- 1 cup * Garlic, crushed -- 6-10 cloves * Lemon or lime juice -- 1/4 cup * Salt -- 1/2 teaspoon 1. Place all of the ingredients into a blender or food processor and process until smooth. 2. Adjust the amount of salt or juice to taste. Enjoy!! It really is good though
