Taro root salad (Salata me kolokasi) from Ikaria: Lessons on Food, Life, and Longevity from the Island Where People Forget to Die (page 57) by Diane Kochilas

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Taro root skordalia (Skordalia); Classic skordalia with bread (Klassico skordalia me vasi to psomi); Old-fashioned skordalia with purslane (Skordalia me glistrida)

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    This was interesting. I live in North Florida where taro is an invasive plant. So I dug some up and gave it a try. Think it is an acquired taste. It’s the same plant used to make poi in Hawaii.
