This is quite possibly an irreverent version of the recipe, the authentic being very unappetizingly bland. I have taken liberties to add a little flavor. You're welcome. ;)

This recipe is missing some important steps. It doesn't say how to peel the taro root or how to mash it. I had to look up those instructions online.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my poi turned out grainy and lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I made this poi for a luau that I was hosting, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it, and they couldn't believe that I had made it myself.

Poi is a staple in our Hawaiian household. We love to eat it with kalua pig, laulau, and poi mochi. This recipe makes a great poi that is perfect for any occasion.

This was my first time making poi, and it turned out great! The texture was smooth and creamy, and the flavor was nutty and slightly sweet. I used taro root that I found at my local Asian grocery store, and it worked perfectly.
