Sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas)

Sweet potatoes, also known as sweet potatoes, are one of the most important foods in the world. This fleshy tuber originates from the area between Mexico and Venezuela, where archaeological findings show that it was cultivated as long as 5,000 years ago. Batavias have a relatively thin, smooth skin and a sweet taste reminiscent of pumpkin or chestnut. The colour of the flesh can vary from white to orange to purple-red.

Sweet potatoes can be prepared in many ways and are prepared in a similar way to potatoes. In addition to the usual methods such as boiling, baking or frying, sweet potatoes are also used to make, for example, flour, which is suitable for a gluten-free diet. Other products are sweet potato chips, which are a healthier alternative to the classic potato chip, or a sweet potato alcoholic drink. Sweet potatoes are also the basis for many desserts such as cakes, puddings and ice cream. In recent years, sweet potato toast has also become increasingly popular - thin slices of sweet potato that are toasted in a toaster oven and served with various findings.
