Whole Tuber

Vegetable

Whole Tuber

Whole lotus tuber is an uncut joint or chain of joints for storage and later slicing. Leaving it whole protects the pale flesh from air browning. Markets sell linked segments or single drums. Keep cool and moist; peel and slice only what you will cook. Whole roots travel better than pre-sliced packs when truly fresh.
