Barfoots Farming Forever White Flesh Sweet Potatoes

This special variety of sweet potatoes has a purple hue on the outside, with white flesh on the inside. With a distinct nutty sweet flavour, they are much drier, with a flesh that more resembles a traditional potato than a typical orange sweet potato when cooked.

Sweet potatoes are a powerhouse of a vegetable rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals. Incredibly versatile, they are delicious in savoury or sweet recipes.

Sweet potatoes love to grow in tropical and subtropical climates. We source our White Flesh Sweet Potatoes in partnership with our expert growers in North Carolina (USA), Portugal and South Africa where conditions are ideal.

Grown in the USA, Portugal and South Africa.

You can use white flesh sweet potatoes much like you would a traditional potato with no need to peel the skin. Their high starch content makes them ideal for roasting, either whole, cubed, wedged or chipped. Cooked on high heat, they crisp on the outside and remain soft and tender on the inside. You can also puree them for use in soups, stews or as a naturally sweet veggie addition to sweet bakes.
