GoldenRatio Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Recently Ive been going crazy over this root that I had not eaten since I was an 8 year old in Caracas... BATATA!!! It tastes like a cross between an idaho potato, a sweet potato and purple. these things are so good I can even eat em without any seasoning. Just Boil Em up and Dig in. If you cant find em in a regular supermarket, check in the hispanic/caribean ones http://www.essortment.com/batata_rkdh.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
