    About Sweet Potatoes

    Sweet potatoes are one of the worlds oldest veggies. Scientists believe they were cultivated thousands of years ago in Central America. In Peruvian records, their first appearance is dated to 750 B.C. They were brought to Europe by Christopher Columbus, who discovered them in 1492 while on a voyage. Sweet potatoes are a nutrient-dense root vegetable that are high in potassium, fibre, vitamin A, and other nutrients. Sweet potatoes are frequently seen as the healthier option due to their high fibre and nutrient content.

    Choose small to medium-size firm sweet potatoes with smooth skin and no bruises or cracks. Look for sweet potatoes that have a more uniform breadth and do
    not taper to points when selecting them. This will assist you in cutting more fries of the same size.
