Cool new member, new question...

from wikepedia reguarding plantains in general:

"Rootstock
The rootstock which bears the leaves is soft and full of starch just before the flowering period, and it is sometimes used as food in Ethiopia; the young shoots of several species are cooked and eaten"

always a cook, i've not done this yet...anyone using this rootstock for food?...like in stir fry?
