Murasaki sweet potatoes can be baked, boiled, roasted, or sautéed, much like a russet potato. It is recommended to wash and scrub the skin well to clean prior to preparing. When cooked, the flesh will develop a fluffy texture. Murasaki sweet potatoes can be julienned for fries, scalloped with cream, diced and caramelized, or mashed with butter. They can also be used in curries, soups, or stews. Murasaki sweet potatoes pair well with scallions, garlic, miso, mirin, soy sauce, sesame oil, olive oil, broccoli, chickpeas, and nori. 

Murasaki sweet potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin A, and a good source of potassium, dietary fiber, and vitamin C. They also contain iron, calcium, protein, and beneficial amino acids.
