Taro is a starchy root vegetable with a mildly sweet and nutty flavour, commonly used in Asian, Pacific Islander, and Middle Eastern cuisines. It’s perfect for boiling, steaming, baking, or deep-frying, and can also be mashed or added to soups and curries. A great source of fibre, potassium, and vitamin E.
