Hi Kim,

Hi Kim,

I'm curious as to what this vegetable looks like. Have you shared this photo online? Can you send us a link so we can take a look at it too? Maybe someone in the Foodista community is familiar with it and can help identify what this is. Thanks!

Don't know if this will help

Don't know if this will help or not. taro = taro root = dasheen = coco = cocoyam = eddo = Japanese potato = baddo = elephant's ear = old cocoyam = sato-imo Pronunciation: TAHR-oh Notes: If you've sampled poi at a Hawaiian luau, then you're already familiar with taro. Many people don't think much of poi, but taro can be served far more advantageously. It has an interesting, nutty flavor, and it's quite good in stews or soups, or deep-fat fried or roasted. In its raw state, it can be toxic and harsh on the skin, so wear gloves or oil your hands when handling it, and always cook it before serving it. Substitutes: malanga OR parsnip OR sweet potato OR yam OR new potatoes
