Diced Sweet Potato

Continue Shopping or View Cart

Many people eat sweet potatoes only on Thanksgiving, and that's a shame, since they're among the most nutritious of vegetables. Their bright color is a key to their high beta-carotene content, and they also contain the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin. Eaten with the skin, a baked sweet potato is an excellent fiber source (about half of which is soluble). And these naturally sweet treats supply substantial amounts of vitamins C and B6, and manganese, as well as a small amount of potassium.

SELECTION

The orange-fleshed type tends to be plumper. Look for moist, tender pieces. Old Sweet Potatoes may have a milky white residue on the exterior.

STORAGE

After purchase, sweet potatoes should be kept in a refrigerated area (35°F to 40°F). Earth Exotics™ Sweet Potatoes are trimmed, cleaned and cubed for convenience and must be kept cold in order to maintain shelf life.

HANDLING & PREPARATION

Moist- and dry-fleshed sweet potatoes are interchangeable in most recipes (except in baked goods, where the difference in the moisture content might be critical).
