The arrowroot is generally collected from February to March.
The arrowroot collected at this time is the most nutritious.
After this period, the arrowroot becomes tough and has a lot of bitterness.

I like arrowroot the best in early spring.

If you dig it up late in spring, most of the nutrients go to the stem
Usually, they dig a lot in early spring after winter.
The best thing is in winter because arrowroot stores nutrients in its roots in winter.
But in winter, the ground freezes and it's hard to dig arrowroot.
As a result, it is dug in early spring, the moment the ground melts.
This is the best medicine and taste.
