Taro contains much cornstarch, eat too much at a time can cause abdominal distension. So share it with your friends.
Your hands may be itch and hurt when you peel taro. It is because taro juice contains saponins which can irritate the skin. Wearing a glove is a good idea to prevent irritation.
If you don’t know whether the taro is cooked, use a chopstick to puncture the taro. If the taro is soft inside, it is well cooked.
