Buyer's guide

Cassava is available year round. It’s quite hard to peel, so it’s easiest to buy it ready prepared and frozen. If you do see it fresh, look for a clear outer skin and white flesh.

Storage

Cassava discolours quickly when cut, so keep it whole in the fridge and use within a couple of days. Once peeled, cover it with acidulated water until ready to use. To freeze cassava, peel, cut into chunks, and freeze.
