Murasaki sweet potatoes are a Japanese variety with deep purple skin and creamy white flesh. Unlike the classic orange-fleshed types, they have a drier, chestnut-like texture and a subtle, nutty sweetness that intensifies when roasted. Their firm flesh holds up beautifully in the oven, making them ideal for roasting wedges, mashing, or adding to grain bowls. Naturally rich in fiber and antioxidants, Murasakis offer a uniquely earthy flavor that’s both delicate and satisfying—perfect for cozy fall and winter meals.
