With the tuber, you can prepare many dishes, also has interesting properties, is an excellent diuretic and contains protein, fiber and various vitamins and minerals. They do not contain starch and has a slightly sweet flavor. If you use it, try taking it with a teaspoon of olive oil extra-virgin for better use, as it can cause gas. You can use in soups, rice dishes as you use ginger.

This sounds like such an interesting ingredient!!! …and I’ve never heard of it!!! Where on Earth did you find out about them? And it’s even crazier that you have recipes for them!! It sounds wonderful to use, and I know it’s kind of a fad thing right now to use exotic foods in your cooking, but I honestly prefer to go with local foods…but very interesting!
