Cassava Root Manioc Tapioca Starch

Product details

Cassava root, also known as manioc or yuca, is a starchy, tuberous root vegetable native to South America that is cultivated as a staple food in many tropical and subtropical regions. It is a major carbohydrate source for hundreds of millions of people worldwide but contains natural toxins, particularly in and near its skin, requiring thorough peeling and cooking before consumption to ensure safety. Cassava is used in various forms, including as a cooked vegetable, ground into flours (cassava flour or tapioca starch), and processed for animal feed and industrial applications.
