How to choose good and chewy taro
- You should buy taro bulbs that are round and of moderate size. If you see a bulb with a rough outer skin, dirt sticking to the skin, and many roots, you should choose these bulbs.
- Choose bulbs with many dimples when viewed, as this indicates good taro. Conversely, avoid buying bulbs with smooth skin and few dimples.
- Choose taro bulbs that feel light when held; do not choose those that feel heavy in hand, as these may contain a lot of water, and when cooked, they will lack the characteristic flavor and be very bland.
