An unusual sweet potato with buff or light brown colored skin and violet-purple flesh. Has a slightly sweet taste and a creamy texture, lending itself to the same recipes you would use with orange sweet potatoes. What sets these beauties apart from regular sweet potatoes is their anthocyanin content, a class of compounds with antioxidant effects that provides many plants – such as cherries, grapes, and strawberries – with their natural red, purple, and blue coloring.
