Purple Sweet Potato
£2.79
In stock
Purple sweet potatoes (sometimes mistakenly called purple yams) are fun to cook with and can be used in many of the same ways as the more familiar orange or white sweet potatoes.
Though some varieties have white skin, cutting one open will reveal their violet-colored surprise.
Popular in some Asian and Latin cuisines, they add a brilliant pop of color to food and require just a few adaptations to cook.
PREP: Purple sweet potatoes are wonderful boiled, steamed, or baked alongside regular sweet potatoes.
They can be used in many of the same ways you’d use an orange or white potato, and the colorful result puts a fun spin on mashed potatoes, fries, and soups.
Sweet potatoes, in general, do not store as well as regular potatoes.
Avoid bruising these potatoes as the slightest damage can cause the entire sweet potato to go bad.
You can keep them at room temperature for about a week.
For longer storage, keep them in a dry, dark, and cool place with good ventilation and use within a few weeks.
Storing any sweet potato in the refrigerator can throw off the flavor and lead to a very hard center.
