I brought a query, that how to prepare colocasia( अरबी) in such a way that it does not itches. It's a problem for colocasia lovers,that while having, it gives itching sensation inside the throat.
यहां तक कि एक कहावत भी प्रचलित है कि अरबी खाने से अगर खुजली होती है, तो या तो खाओ मत,या फिर खाओ और खुजाओ
So here's the solution
कि खाओ , और वो भी बिना खुजाए
