About Poi
Pokeberry shoots are edible only when young and when properly prepared - the roots, berries, and mature plant parts are toxic, and raw shoots require boiling and discarding the water before eating. Raw, the shoots are primarily water, with modest protein and minimal fat or carbohydrate. Once properly cooked, they have a flavor somewhat like asparagus. They are a foraged green with deep roots in Appalachian and Southern American foodways, rarely found commercially, and best approached only by those familiar with correct preparation.
