Eddo

Coconut lookalike for versatile use

Eddo - Product photo

Bursting with starch and of tropical origin: the eddo is a carrot that is gradually gaining prominence. In Indonesia it is a very common food; not only the root but also the crop above the ground, as a leaf vegetable.

The appearance of the eddo is reminiscent of a coconut: brown with a hairy skin. After preparation, the nutty flavour of the eddo stands out in particular.

Storage advice

  • Transport and storage: Cool conditions are essential for eddos. The roots are best transported and stored at temperatures between 10 and 12˚C.
  • Shop: The regular fresh produce shelf with a target temperature of 12˚C is a great place.

Recipes & preparation tips

The hairy skin can easily be removed from eddos with a sharp knife. Next, the tuber can be sliced or cubed for further processing. There are plenty of preparation options. Just like the potato, the eddo can be boiled, pan-fried, deep-fried, steamed and even roasted. The eddo is a delicious basis for a stew, because it is so nutritious. They are also often boiled in soups.
