Candied Taro and Taro Shaved Ice
It's so hot! Making some candied taro is great whether you eat it directly or add it to shaved ice! Especially for those who love ice, it's a perfect summer treat!
Tips
Adjust the sweetness to your liking. You can replace rock sugar with granulated sugar or brown sugar. The sugar amount is about 40% of the taro weight, so adjust according to your preference. Add a bit of alcohol for flavor and nourishment, or replace it with water if you prefer or omit it entirely.
Thoughts
The candied taro is soft and fluffy after cooking, and it's delicious even without the shaved ice!
