Description
Yampi roots are small to medium in size, averaging 15-20 centimeters in length and 6-8 centimeters in diameter, and are elongated, cylindrical, and irregularly-shaped tubers slightly tapering at one end. The skin is thin, smooth, and dark brown with light brown cracks and a variegated appearance. The flesh is firm and moist with a slippery, sometimes slimy texture, and can range in color from white, cream-colored, pink, to purple. When cooked, Yampi root has a tender, soft, and slightly dry texture with a sweet, mild flavor similar to a sweet potato.
