Selection & Storage Advice

Selection: Choose roots that feel firm and heavy for their size. Ensure they are free of soft spots, cracks, or any signs of mold. The flesh inside should be a clean, solid white.


Storage: Fresh cassava should be kept in a cool, dry place and used within a few days. For longer storage, it is best to peel, chop, and freeze it, where it will stay fresh for several months.
