Flavor Profile: Japanese yams, characterized by a naturally sweet, earthy, and chestnut-like sweetness, rather than a sugary one. They have a unique, mildly sweet yet subtle flavor, and a creamy, nutty taste with a hint of floral notes. Japanese sweet potatoes are drier and starchier than other varieties, with a distinct creaminess and a fluffier, lighter texture, making them more similar to a regular baking potato than a standard orange sweet potato. The flesh of Japanese sweet potatoes is firm and dense, with a creamy white to pale yellow hue, deepening to a golden yellow and developing a softer feel when cooked. The skin is edible, and the potatoes pair well with a variety of ingredients such as meats, eggs, rice, and various herbs and spices. The flavor and texture of Japanese sweet potatoes make them a versatile and sought-after ingredient in both traditional and modern cuisine.
