Konjac

$39.00

Cultivated for the edible corm, which must be cooked before eating. The starch from the corm is used to make flour, jelly and noodles. A unique plant producing only one enormous bipinnate leaf a year, up to 1m tall and 2m across. The flower is produced before the leaf, and when grown, the flowers have a fetid smell to attract pollinators, carrion flies and midges and can be up to 50cm tall. Once pollinated the smell abates. Corms may grow up to 25cm in diameter and must be thoroughly boiled or baked to destroy the calcium oxalate crystals contained within, which are toxic when raw. Native to tropical SE Asia and found from Northern Australia to China. It has many traditional culinary and medicinal uses throughout SE Asian cultures. Care must be taken when eating the jelly form as it is very firm and may present a choking hazard.
