How to choose fresh and delicious cassava
- When buying cassava, observe and choose those that are plump, long, straight, brightly colored, and feel heavy in hand.
- Lightly scrape the outer skin and select those with a light pink inner skin.
- Do not choose those that are too thin, misshapen, or have an excessively white inner skin, as a white inner skin indicates the presence of toxins.
- You should not buy those with overly soft flesh or those that are hard and dry, as these are stale cassavas and no longer fresh.
