Baked Taro
Baked taro root.
Notes
Baked Taro is a tier-2 baked vegetable dish made by cooking taro root, providing 700 calories and a total of 28 nutrient points distributed across all four categories (8 carbs, 6 protein, 2 fat, 12 vitamins). Its high vitamin content makes it a useful component for balancing a diet when paired with foods richer in other nutrients, though its low fat value means it should be rotated with fattier items to maximize the ×2 balance modifier. As a Baked Food, it qualifies for culinary research and can serve as a cooking ingredient, while its 72-hour shelf life makes it a practical stored food for settlements that have established baked-good production.
