South Seas starch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taro

'south seas starch' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for taro that I've seen before include "Starchy plant" , "Starchy food" , "Chinese eddo" , "A rot turns the lily-like plant" , "Tropical plant with edible tuberous roots" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
