Red Japanese sweet potatoes, also known as Murasake, have dark red skin and pale yellow to white sweet flesh. They have a lower moisture content than other varieties, giving them a light and fluffy consistency and are known for their distinctive chestnut-like nutty sweet flavor. 

In Japan, these specialty sweet potatoes are the preferred variety for crispy tempura or simply steamed with minimal ingredients. Enjoy Red Japanese sliced and air-fried, baked or quickly microwaved for a quick snack. They are the perfect choice for easy, delicious and healthy meals. This adaptable variety can take less than optimum conditions and has good disease resistance.

These sweet potatoes are so delicious. They have amazing storage time and they are extremely easy to grow. I had no problems at all . I planted them in a raised bed and got an amazing yield. Even though they are white flesh I made sweet potato casserole for thanksgiving and it was delicious and made sweet potato fries. So dessert or savory, they are great.
