Murasaki Sweet potato per pound

Murasaki sweet potatoes are characterized by their deep purple skin and creamy white flesh, as well as their extra starchy texture.

They're sweet, through and through, with just a hint of chestnut flavor. They're a bit fluffy (again, like a russet) and a little less moist than traditional sweet potatoes and yams, but if you're a sweet potato fan, these will definitely satisfy that craving.

Although they're sometimes labeled "Japanese sweet potatoes," Murasaki sweet potatoes were actually developed in Louisiana.
