Japanese Sweet Potatoes

Japanese Sweet Potatoes

EverydayFresh

Japanese sweet potatoes are a root vegetable variety distinguished by their reddish-purple skin and pale yellow flesh that becomes creamy when cooked. Known as 'Satsumaimo' in Japan, they offer a naturally sweet, chestnut-like flavor and contain more fiber and antioxidants than orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, particularly in their edible skins. These tubers maintain a lower glycemic index than standard potatoes while providing sustained energy, making them popular in both traditional Japanese dishes and modern gluten-free recipes.
