You wondered what A. paeon. tastes like, it is

available here in Florida in cans at the Indian Grocery, called 'Suran' or

Elephant yam. It USED to be available as whole fresh tubers, but I have
not seen

them in ages. I hear that it tastes like Dracontium tubers, which taste

like a doughy Colocasia!




so, ju-bo, how do these chubas taste like?  are they



prepared fresh or just as a starch like konjac?<<



Dear Tsuh Yang,



As I mentioned (above), the 'chubas' are sold in cans as bits cooked in
brine, and though I have not sampled them, am told that they taste like
Dracontium, or like a 'tough' Colocasia!
