I present to you, the humble but delicious taro!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Or, the humble malanga! Folks, I must be honest – I don’t actually know what this thing is called. I’ve always been told growing up that it was taro. However, I’ve since seen it labeled as both taro and malanga in supermarkets, and what I’ve found on the<\/a> internet<\/a> is<\/a> hardly<\/a> conclusive<\/a>. Either way, it hardly matters – they are close cousins, sharing the same family<\/a>. I’m actually now convinced that anything labeled taro can really be one of many cousins, and it’s more important to just go by appearance when grocery shopping. I’m going to call this thing taro throughout the rest of the post. Let me know your opinions, but unless I get definitive evidence otherwise, taro it shall be.<\/p>\n
