    Same plant different names amazing! Here in nepal we call it gava or karkalo this can be eaten in several ways, cook leaves putting spices by whistling in pressure cooker as a paste eat with rice, stem can be turned into pickle, or dried by chopping in small pieces and mix it into soaked skinless black lentil paste turning it to small balls and sun dry for a week and enjoy with potatoes as a curry in winter.... great food to combat winter... eat everyone it is very benefical 🙂

I live in Oklahoma and have my ohana send me poi every month and not only do i have to send them money to buy the poi but also ship the poi but to me its all worth it.

    in the caribbean, we have three things like that. eddoes, dasheen and tania. the eddoes is alike a small plum size version of the dasheen. the dasheen is large, like a small coconut. they have different textures, where the eddoes is more slimy compared to the dasheen, and the dasheen is kinda more tough, like sweet potato. i cant remember if ive ever eaten the tania, but its supposed to be sorta bitter and scratchy.

    Taro is one of the oldest cultivated crops in the world. To hear that it has become a luxury crop in Hawaii is sad. I thought it was an everyday thing.
    It's a rarity in Aotearoa now. I'm trying to bring it back in my area. One day I hope to see plantations like this in Aotearoa.
    Thank you for sharing.

    To us, 6 months old taro is still young. The stems are still many and healthy meaning not ready to harvest.
    We harvest at 9 months. At this time, the taro will have about 4 to 3 leaves left. FYI to those who want to learn about different taro planting and harvesting methods.
    Nonetheless, that is yummy!
    God bless you.🙏
