Prep notes
A woodland tuber with legume protein. Cook it. More protein than potato, more iron too. Not the African peanut (Arachis) — same English name, different plant. Usually prepared before eating. Per 100 g figures match this catalogue row.
Caution
Grocery / shop food data only. Not a wild forage guide. Thrive shows composition curiosity — not medical advice.
