Best sources for SWEET POTATOES

[Anonymous]

I am a bit of a sweet potato addict. They are the main foundation of my diet. I’m always looking to get my hands on as many varieties as possible.

At Whole Foods there is a decent selection. I can get Jewels, Garnets, Japanese, and Stokes.

However there are other varieties I would like as well. I particularly enjoy Hannahs for example, but Whole Foods around here (dc) doesn’t carry them (at least not the ones i go to). I did randomly find some Hannahs today at the Van Ness Giant but my sense is that was a one-off occurrence.

Any insights on good sources of different sweet potato types in the DMV? Or sources I could order from for delivery? I hesitate to have them shipped to me because quality can be unreliable, but would be interested if anyone knows of a reliable source.

Thank you!

Might try MOM'S organic market.

Korean sweet potatoes from HMART or any Korea grocery store. Sometimes they sell them in bulk in big boxes. They are sweet and have a nice chestnut flavor. Delicious when roasted!

MOM’s has beautiful sweet potatoes, including Hannah’s. The best I’ve seen outside of a farmers market.

They also have them pre-roasted at HMart, at least some times when I've been there.
