Fresh Arbi (SHIPPING ON THURSDAY)

Description

Fresh arbi, also known as taro root, is a starchy root vegetable that is commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions, especially in Asia and Africa. It has a brown, hairy skin and a white or purple flesh inside that is firm and starchy. Arbi has a mild, nutty flavor and a slightly slimy texture when cooked, similar to potatoes. It is often used in Indian and Southeast Asian cuisines to make curries, stews, and fritters. It can also be boiled, mashed, or roasted as a substitute for potatoes. Arbi is a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C and magnesium. It is also believed to have several health benefits, such as improving digestion, regulating blood pressure, and boosting immunity. However, it should be prepared properly before consumption as the raw root contains calcium oxalate crystals which can be toxic if ingested in large amounts.
