Choublack (pronounced "shoo-blahk") is the Haitian Creole name for the leaves of the taro plant (Colocasia esculenta). The name itself is a perfect linguistic blend, combining the French word for cabbage, "chou," with the English word "black," which accurately describes the leaf's dark, often deep green to purplish-black veins and stems.
