I am so glad to hear that! It makes all my efforts worthwhile :) Btw, check this video where I show how to cook banana flower/blossom. I thought you might like that! ruclips.net/video/TC5NRaciTpM/видео.html
Thank you. Your instructions are as detailed as they come. Just ordered it off Amazon fresh, never seen it before (only read about it) ! If I were to pressure cook, would you have any idea how much time after the first whistle ?
@@Cook2Nourish I followed your instructions exactly as you described (except I did not mash the Yuca at the end). It was the first time I have ever peeled and cooked Yuca. It tasted delicious! Thank you making a video that was so simple and joyful to follow, with such a delicious dish at the end :)
Fresh or frozen cassava does not need to be soaked. If you are using dried cassava (which is available in India and perhaps some other countries too), that needs to be soaked in hot water for a couple hours or overnight.
No, not all...The ones that are available in the groceries or market is definitely not poisonous! It is very commonly used in Kerala and in south america.
I bought some from Walmart and noticed as I peeled and cut them, they were bruised inside, gray, and had dark strings. And had a very metallic odor. When I did researche I discovered that these parts are toxic. Just FYI. You have to remove them and only keep the clean and white parts obviously.
That is interesting. definitely remove the dark colored parts. As far as I know they are not necessarily toxic(because the toxic cassava root is not grown for food) but could be infected with bad bacteria or pathogens.
Where I live my grandmother, and pretty much everyone that prepares soups used to cook the Yuccas with chicken, celery, mushroom, all in one pot, I don't know how we never died. but yes I've also read about not using the same water.
I did discard most of the water. I retained little bit of it so that the mashed yuca remains moist and not dry. If you like, you can drain all of the water and then add some extra water while mashing it. The reason why water is to be drained is because of presence of cyanogens(in very low quantities) which get converted into cyanides inside the body(apple seeds have it too). But cooking gets rid of them. Also only some varieties of yuca have more of this(african varieties) but most varieties of yuca that you get in the US are the sweet variety and have a very low content of this cyanogen.

Love cassava chips!
Thank you. Your instructions are as detailed as they come.
Just ordered it off Amazon fresh, never seen it before (only read about it) !
If I were to pressure cook, would you have any idea how much time after the first whistle ?
In pressure cooker, I would say 3 whistles should be fine. I do cook it in my Instant Pot and I pressure cook it for 10 mins.
Thank you for showing how to peel. Huge help!
You are so welcome!
Very informative. Thank you my sister.

Anyone get really nervous when she was cutting that thing up. My god 😱
That was difficult to watch. I will be trying a gentler approach for that portion of the preparation.
Love this recipe. Thank you!
So glad to hear!
Is it necessary for the cassava to be soaked as well? I see anywhere from 20 minutes to 3-4 days. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
Fresh or frozen cassava does not need to be soaked. If you are using dried cassava (which is available in India and perhaps some other countries too), that needs to be soaked in hot water for a couple hours or overnight.
Thanks 😇
Thanks this recipe I want to try this
You are welcome! And yes do try and lmk!

wow i had no idea yuca was kapa haha my parents always made it but i didnt realize it was the same vegetable
Yes many people don't know that. Kappa is also called tapioca in India and in South America it's called cassava or yuca.
Amazing. Thanks.
You are welcome!
Great video! Do they get brown if the aren’t placed in water like a potato would?
No they don't get brown. I freeze them too if I am not cooking them all and they freezer well too!
Thank you for sharing this beautiful recipe. Love your sister in Christ.
thanks so much!

Cassava are main food?
شكراً

i live in Bangalore, how can i find Yuca to buy or order online??
You should be able to find cassava (called as tapioca in india) in Kerala grocery stores.
Hi ,Does yucca and kappa (kerala tapioca)tastes same?
Yes they are both the same! Here in the US and in south america, it is called yuca or cassava.
Yuca & yucca is not the same thing yuca is cassava or manioc root😜🇺🇸🇲🇺🦤
we always threw away boiled water thinking its bad for health
I bought some from Walmart and noticed as I peeled and cut them, they were bruised inside, gray, and had dark strings. And had a very metallic odor. When I did researche I discovered that these parts are toxic. Just FYI. You have to remove them and only keep the clean and white parts obviously.

THANK U
You're welcome!
I can’t cut it. 😞
Don’t use the water, purpose of boiling for long period of time is to prevent cyanide poisoning
Where I live my grandmother, and pretty much everyone that prepares soups used to cook the Yuccas with chicken, celery, mushroom, all in one pot, I don't know how we never died. but yes I've also read about not using the same water.
I know you drain some of the water but that’s a ton of salt
You can add less salt if you like but I find cassava to be pretty bland if it's not seasoned well enough.
The cooking water should be discarded. Use fresh water with the mashed cassava.
why should the cooking water be discarded?
I did discard most of the water. I retained little bit of it so that the mashed yuca remains moist and not dry. If you like, you can drain all of the water and then add some extra water while mashing it. The reason why water is to be drained is because of presence of cyanogens(in very low quantities) which get converted into cyanides inside the body(apple seeds have it too). But cooking gets rid of them. Also only some varieties of yuca have more of this(african varieties) but most varieties of yuca that you get in the US are the sweet variety and have a very low content of this cyanogen.
@@incorectulpolitic You're boiling the Yucca to get rid of the cyanide. You have to discard the water. It's very dangerous to consume.
I love you
