This Vegetable Can Feed An Army (And Why You Should Grow It)

This was the first year I tried growing mashua. I've tried one variety so far but I'm intrigued to try more. I've seen some diverse way of cooking it. I've had it boiled, fried, roasted and raw. Raw it has a liquorice, peppery taste. I've also seen it boiled and mixed into a "batido de mashua" or milkshake as a tonic for the prostate. I've yet to try it.
