Quê Hương Frozen Peeled Cassava

Quê Hương Frozen Peeled Cassava is whole yuca root with its thick, waxy skin already peeled away, frozen in firm pieces that cook up dense, creamy, and mildly sweet. Prepping fresh cassava means wrestling off tough bark and the woody core, and this bag spares you all of it, leaving clean white pieces ready to drop into the pot.

Boil or steam the pieces until a fork slides through, around twenty to thirty minutes, then enjoy them the classic Vietnamese way. Serve khoai mì hấp with grated coconut, crushed peanuts, and a pinch of sugar and salt, simmer cassava in coconut milk for chè khoai mì, or cut it into fries and savory braises. The soft, starchy flesh soaks up sweet and salty flavors alike.

Pick the format that suits you, from a 16-ounce bag to bulk cases of 5-pound bags, six or four bags to the case. These are peeled cassava pieces and nothing more, unlike the finely grated cassava meant for batters. Keep them frozen at 0°F and cook straight from frozen for the best, fluffiest texture.
