Fried taro with chives
Overview
The large fleshy corm of taro is called mother taro. The first tillering occurs from the mother taro, forming small corms called child taro, and then the grandson taro is produced from the child taro. When I was a child, the mother taro grown at home was sold at the market for money. My family only ate the smaller child taro, and I also preferred eating child taro. I thought the child taro was waxier and more elastic than the mother taro.
