Introducing Kalo (Taro Root) — one of the original canoe crops and is central to the creation story of the Hawaiian people. Our kalo is pre-prepared: peeled, cut, steamed and frozen, saving time for busy kitchens and manufacturers who require ease without sacrificing quality. 

Defrost by lightly steaming for 5-10 minutes to rehydrate, and enjoy in a stew, curry, stir-fry or straight up! Kalo can be pounded, mashed, and also enjoyed in a poke-style salad.

Elevate your plant-based poke with our new diced kalo or simply serve it as a rice substitute with virtually anything!

Kalo variety

I love being able to ship monthly. I use this Kalo paa strictly for poi and pa'i 'ai. Any way I can request poi varieties? Ele'ele or manaulu or moilehua?

So grateful!

I love being able to get kalo every month! We’re working with the team on smoothing out payment to not include shipping and coordinating pick up schedule. Mahalo nui for all of the team’s hardwork!
