Aside from its unique bold color, the Stokes Purple Sweet Potato differs from other sweet potatoes and yams is in its flavor and texture, offering a favorably dryer, denser, and richer taste with well-balanced sweetness. The Stokes Purple Sweet Potato is grown in California and is non-GMO.

How to Eat

    Scrub external skin and wrap potatoes in aluminum foil. (Rub with olive oil prior to wrapping for extra moist results.) Place wrapped potatoes on a baking tray and bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 2 hours (bigger potatoes take longer). The dense flesh of this potato takes a bit longer to cook than most other sweet potatoes, but it’s worth the wait!
    Caution bakers! Baking soda may turn the purple sweet potato green! Please check your recipe.
