When is the season for fresh suran (Amorphophallus paeoniifolius tuber eaten
in India)? I checked out one of the Indian neighborhoods in Los Angeles
(Pioneer Blvd. in Artesia) a couple months ago--all they had was canned.
Does anyone know whether other Asian markets (Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese)
ever carry it? Do these ever have fresh A. konjac? There are a lot more of
those markets (and they're a lot bigger) closer to me.
