- You should prioritize choosing roots with many indentations. The inner flesh has many purple veins and a deep red color.
How to choose fresh sweet potatoes
- Good sweet potatoes that are not fibrous usually have a round or elongated shape, with an intact exterior, not cracked or chipped.
- When holding sweet potatoes, you will feel their weight. Avoid choosing sweet potatoes that are black or have blemishes, as these are signs that the potatoes are spoiled.
