Taro corms are highly perishable owing to their high moisture content. Processing removes the water which reduces the bulk and also increases their storage life. The method of processing‚ ranging from simple boiling to elaborate fermentation‚ drying and grinding to make flour may vary depending on the varieties of roots and tubers. The taro flour production from fresh tuber soon after harvest serves as an effective procedure against storage loss. Converting fresh edible tubers to flours will avoid

Kavya reddy (2011) made an attempt to formulate extruded snacks in combination with corn grits‚ black gram dhal‚ root and tuber like potato‚ sweet potato‚ colocasia and beet root‚ corn grits‚ black and gram dhal and tubers were added in the ratio of 60: 20: 20 respectively to produce puffed snacks. The author has concluded that most acceptable based extruded products can be prepared by using tubers. The products
