Roasted Japanese Sweet Potatoes; 2 Ways
These purple sweet potatoes are something special. In Japan, they are known as satsumaimo. The interior is a light creamy white that turns yellow after cooking. There are 2 ways to roast them in the oven. At 325° for 70-90 minutes, the sweet potato has a sweet cake-like texture. At 375° for 50-60 minutes, they are cheesecake-like with a crispy outside. Either way, eating these sweet potatoes is like eating a dessert.
