How to choose good, non-fibrous purple sweet potatoes
- Buy sweet potatoes that are intact, not cracked or chipped. Pick up the sweet potato and feel it heavy, firm, and not bruised.
- Be careful when you see sweet potatoes with black spots or pockmarked, that is a sign that the sweet potato has spoiled.
- Choose sweet potatoes that are round or elongated, without any waist or indentations; if you squeeze lightly, they should not be too hard, as these usually have less fiber, more starch, and taste very sweet.
- Avoid choosing small, long, waisted or indented sweet potatoes as they will have more fiber.
