DASHEEN BUSH (taro leaves, kalo, elephant ears) Field in Trinidad | K&I

Описание: In my #SupportLocal feature today, I am at a Dasheen Bush (taro, kalo, elephant ears) field! It was my first time visiting a dasheen bush field this big, and it was absolute fun!

Dasheen Bush by K&I is a family-run business, and they supply dasheen bush to wholesale markets, supermarkets, small markets, restaurants and cafes. If you'd like to order from them, call Imtiaz at (868) 722-2345.

I made callaloo and it melted so quick in the pot! I must say their dasheen bush is high quality and so tasty!

Trinbagonians refer to dasheen bush as “bhagi” or “callaloo bush”. In many other countries, it’s known as “taro leaves”.
“Elephant ears”, “Polynesian poi”, and “kalo” are other names used.
The young leaves cook similar to spinach.
The dasheen plant also produces corms
and tubers- dasheen/taro & eddoes.

Taro leaves are an excellent source of ascorbic acid
and dietary fiber, and also contain thiamin, riboflavin,
iron, phosphorus, zinc, vitamin B6, vitamin C, niacin,
potassium, copper, and manganese.
