How to Choose Fat and Creamy Purple Sweet Potatoes
- Buy sweet potatoes that are intact, not cracked or chipped. When holding the potato, it should feel heavy, firm, and not bruised.
- Choose potatoes with a layer of powder or dirt on them. When slicing a thin piece from the tip, you should see a light purple color and sap oozing out. These potatoes will be very sweet when boiled.
- Purple sweet potatoes should not be stored in the refrigerator as they will wilt and lose flavor. They should be kept in a cool place, not wrapped tightly in plastic bags, and avoided in damp and warm areas to prevent sprouting.
