1 If tapioca flour is not used to make taro balls, we can use raw flour instead. Raw flour is a common starch, which is polymerized by glucose molecules. If it is made into food, it will be very elastic, so it can be used to make taro balls instead of tapioca flour.

2. Many people will also use sweet potato flour instead of cassava flour. Although it is possible, the appearance will not be as crystal clear as that of cassava flour, and it will be gray when cooked. It is more suitable for making glutinous rice balls with sweet potato flour instead of cassava flour, which is equally elastic and chewy.
