What Is Yuca? / Cassava Croquette-Style Tater Tots Recipe

[cod0mw2]

im dominican and yuca is like our main side dish next to plantains.. my dad boils it and he dosent mash it but he adds onions and salt and it taste really good..

I remember my grandma would pick flowers off of yucca plants and fry them, season them with salt and pepper and eat them. I never tried them because I was a kid and it seemed weird to me, but now I'm kinda curious as to how they tasted. Have you ever tried them?

I have had yucca in a few stews before and they were extremely thick. Like snot thick, admittedly not the greatest texture, but I can see why they important on a global scale.

@thePowerPlant and I'm sure they keep getting thicker and thicker too.

I made a beef korokke recipe 2 weeks ago - you can see it on my channel! I think its pretty good because youtube famous japanese cook runnyrunny999 accepted it as a video response to his own recipe and youtube offered me individual partnership on it. HUZZAH!
