    Taro Taro (Colocasia esculenta) Systematik Unterklasse: Froschlöffelähnliche (Alismatidae) Ordnung: Froschlöffelartige (Alismatales) Familie: Aronstabgewächse (Araceae) Unterfamilie: Aroideae Gattung: Colocasia Art: Taro Wissenschaftlicher Name Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott Traditioneller Taroanbau auf Terrassen aus Lavagestein auf der Insel Kauaʻi Taro (Colocasia esculenta) ist eine Nutzpflanze aus der Familie der Aronstabgewächse (Araceae), die seit mehr als 2000 Jahren als Nahrungspflanze kultiviert wird. Ein anderer Name für Taro ist Wasserbrotwurzel. In alten Nachschlagewerken, wie z. B. Pierer's Universal-Lexikon findet sich für die Pflanze auch die Bezeichnung Tarro. Genutzt werden vorwiegend die stärkehaltigen Rhizome der Pflanze. Sie werden wie Kartoffeln gekocht. In den Anbauländern werden auch die Blätter und Blattstiele als Gemüse gegessen. Sie enthalten viel Mineralien, Vitamin A, B und C. Taro wird heute weltweit in feuchten, tropischen und subtropischen Klimazonen angebaut. Für den Export wird er in Ägypten, Costa Rica, der Karibik, Brasilien und Indien angepflanzt. In Hawaii ist die dort kalo[1] genannte Pflanze eine der wichtigsten traditionellen Nutzpflanzen. Aus den Rhizomen wird poi, eine Paste, hergestellt. Die Aborigines in Australien nutzen diese Pflanze um daraus Busch-Brot zu backen, indem sie aus dem Rhizom Mehl herstellten.

  • 14 Places with Quirky Singaporean Fusion Food You Must Try by EMICHOK on MARCH 6, 2016 • ( LEAVE a COMMENT )
    14FEATURED Places with Quirky Singaporean Fusion Food You Must Try 14 Places with Quirky Singaporean Fusion Food You Must Try BY EMICHOK ON MARCH 6, 2016 • ( LEAVE A COMMENT ) First up, what’s fusion food? According to Dictionary.com, fusion food is “any dishes combining ingredients or cooking methods from 2 or more regional or ethnic culinary traditions”. In fact, fusion food is not that distant a concept to Singaporeans. Peranakan cuisine is the perfect example of fusion food, which originated from Chinese-Malay marriages back in the early days by using ingredients from classic Chinese dishes such as pork and garlic, with spices commonly used in Malay dishes such as lemongrass, and belacan (yum!). While Asian-Western fusion cuisines and restaurants are commonly known, what about specifically, Singaporean fusion food? Think nasi lemak risotto, laksa maki, chendol xiao long bao, and chilli crab cheese fries… Local-fusion or confusion? You’d only know if you’ve tried. 1. 49 Seats: Seafood Tom Yum Pasta With its affordable prices and accessible outlets, 49 Seats has increased in popularity over the years. Its original outlet at Kreta Ayer Road opens till 2am from Mondays to Thursdays, and 5:30am on Fridays and Saturdays, thus making it a great supper spot to satisfy those midnight hunger pangs and sudden cravings. Other outlets are located at Bugis+ and Orchard Central. For $14.90 with no GST and service charge, enjoy a generous serving of tom yum pasta topped up with succulent prawns, mussel and clams. Be warned, it is spicy! (Discover More) 2.
