Full of honey, moist and extremely sweet! A popular shop serving exquisite baked sweet potatoes and special sweets (Jonan Ward, Fukuoka City)
Hello. I'm Masaki, a writer who loves hidden gourmet spots.
This time, we will introduce some recommended shops where you can eat roasted sweet potatoes, a dish that you will want to eat in the fall.
Baking in a jar makes the sweet potatoes sweeter and full of syrup! "Tsubo-yakimo N.sweet" (Nanakuma, Jonan Ward, Fukuoka City)
Located near Fukuoka Prefectural Jonan High School is "N.sweet", a shop where you can purchase delicious "Tsuboyakiimo" (baked sweet potatoes) made from sweet potatoes sourced from all over Japan.
The sweet potatoes we purchase are aged for over three months in a temperature-controlled aging room, and then they are slowly roasted over a low flame using binchotan charcoal in a pot for around two hours.
By baking them inside the pot, the effect of far infrared rays makes the sweet potatoes sweet and honey-filled.
By the way, "Tsubo-yakimo N.sweet" has installed a vending machine so that customers can purchase products even when the store is closed. They sell vacuum-packed "Cold Tsubo-yakimo" (450 yen), "Yakimo Crepes" (380 yen), "Yakimo Cheesecake" (380 yen), and more.
The dessert made with baked sweet potatoes is also a must-try!
The sweet potatoes we are purchasing at this time of year are a variety called "Beni Haruka" from Ibaraki Prefecture (the supplier and variety change depending on the season).
This time, I tried Beni Haruka's "Pot-roasted sweet potato" (200 yen for 100g), "Pot-roasted sweet potato brulee" (450 yen), and "Pot-roasted sweet potato smoothie" (450 yen).
The classic and highly recommended "Pot-baked Sweet Potatoes" are piping hot and perfect for this cold season.
When you cut it open, you'll see the beautiful yellow color!
The variety that the owner, Mr. Niihara, recommends the most is "Beni Haruka," which is really moist and soft. It's sweet and delicious.
And this is the "Pot-baked Sweet Potato Brulee."
Sweet potato cream is placed inside the baked sweet potato and the custard cream on top is then bruléed on the spot to create a truly sweet dessert.
The sweet potatoes baked in a pot are already sweet enough on their own, but the addition of the cream sweetness that is different from that of baked sweet potatoes makes this a very satisfying dish.
If you like sweet things, you should definitely try this.
The "Pot-roasted sweet potato smoothie" is a drink made by blending pot-roasted sweet potatoes and milk in a blender. The packaging is very cute.
What's more, it's sweet and delicious.
What surprised me more than the taste was how good the flavor was. I also personally liked the fact that it still had a slight potato texture.
In winter, there will be more varieties of sweet potatoes available besides "Beni Haruka."
If you want to try some sweet potato treats, be sure to give this a try. (Text by Masaki)
