Handling protocols

  • Handle carefully because cuts and bruises create entry points for decay.
  • Do not wash before storage; remove loose soil gently and wash immediately before preparation.
  • Keep corms dry and ventilated and use damaged pieces first.
  • Cook cocoyam properly before eating rather than consuming it raw.

Storage tips

  • Store whole cocoyam in a cool, shaded, dry and well-ventilated place away from damp floors.
  • Do not seal damp cocoyam in airtight plastic.
  • For dependable household quality, use within about 1–2 weeks after delivery.
  • Discard corms that become soft, slimy, moldy, leaking or strongly rotten-smelling.
