Directions
-
Peel the cooled taro and cut into 1-inch cubes.
-
Grind the taro in a meat grinder,
-
place the ground taro in a calabash (wooden bowl) and use a poi pounder to mash the taro.
-
Wet your other hand, slip it under the taro and turn the pounded taro over so that it will not stickto the calabash.
-
Continue to mash and turn the pounded taro over each time.
-
Wet the poi pounder from time to time so it does not stick and keep working at it until it is smooth and thick.
-
Poi which has not been mixed with water may be kept at room temperature for several days by keeping it in the calabash and covering it with a damp cloth.
-
If the poi is kept in a refrigerator it should be mixed with water before storing.
-
To mix: Add a little water and stir round and round with the hand until all the water is absorbed.
-
Keep adding water a little at a time until poi is the consistency as thick or as thin as you like to eat it.
-
Store in a cool place or serve immediately.
-
Or let it stand 2 to 3 days for a sour flavor.
