Hey, Islanders, why is my taro white? Should it change colors after cooking? I made poi, it's delicious...but it's white (not purple).

It was marked Taro/Satoimo at the store. I steamed it until it was soft enough to put a knife through, peeled, then put it in the blender with water.

Yeah, what Kory said. Satoimo ("village potato") is Japanese taro root, different variety than kalo. Was ono, main t'ing.
