Northeast Farm Stew
1.
Pumpkin (in fact, we all call it guagua) cut hob pieces, sweet potatoes are hob pieces, so there is no need to break the beans. Because this dish is simmered for a long time, there is no need to break the beans or worry about being unripe, but you can break them if you want to hurry up.
