Why can’t we get the deep purple ones in Australia? The Ube, I think it’s called?

Interesting also please make a video on yam. I only had them once in NZ and can never find them as when ever I try and look up who sells them in Aus sweet potatoes come up

The purple sweet potato is the absolute best. Finding them in store is always a treat.

Traumatic memories of my Mum going on a steaming kick and steaming purple sweet potato and putting a grey unappetising pile on our plates.

So do sweet potatoes require a warmer climate to grow?

I really can't get behind roasted chestnuts, no matter how much I try. But I absolutely love a red sweet potato! 🍠

I've been excited for this one! I can't eat regular potatoes (or the extended nightshade family) and I've only ever tried the gold sweet potatoes

I recently brought the red skin to try and found them too dry and starchy. Thought I mightve overcooked them first time but 2nd attempt was the same 🙃 so ill stick with my orange ones, cant go wrong

Does the red sweet potato freeze better than a potato? I cannot figure out how to freeze potato, cooked or not without it being weird

I’m old enough to remember that sweet potatoes here in Aus were pretty much all the white ones. Then when I was an adult arrived the Kumara, the orange sweet potatoes, which were a lot tastier, are they the same as the ones you have there? Or were they a sub species?
