Yuca (not to be confused with the yucca plant!) is a tuberous root native to South America. Also known as c،ava, it’s a staple in many Latin American, African, and Caribbean cuisines thanks to its versatility. It can be processed into starch, mashed, baked, and even made into alco،l! The flavor is mild and a little bit sweet, with just a hint of nuttiness.
