Sweet potatoes are delicious cooked whole. When baked, their thin skin puffs to a crisp finish and inside you’ll discover a sweet, pillowy flesh. The varieties of sweet potatoes include orange, white, red and purple.
How To Store
Store in a cool, dry, dark, and well-ventilated place for up to 2 weeks. Do not refrigerate because it will produce a hard center and unpleasant taste.
How To Select
Select sweet potatoes that are firm to the touch without signs of decay. For even cooking, choose sweet potatoes that are uniform in shape.
