Boiling them in a clay pot, one of the only materials available to them, renders them edible and famously almost nutritionally complete. They are incredibly easy to grow and grow almost anywhere. They were immediately available. "What happens if we boil it" is the basis for quite a lot of staple foods and would have been a human go-to.
