Cooking Basics
Peel the satoimo to create a six-sided shape. Doing so increases aesthetic appeal, and is especially recommended for Japanese-style simmered dishes served for guests. First thinly slice off the top and bottom, then adjust each width while peeling vertically to create six even sides. Once a section is peeled, peel the section on the opposite side next, rather than the section beside, as this will make it easier to create equal-sized peeled sections.
