How long do sweet potatoes last?

In: Individual Ingredients, Food Storage and Spoilage

If stored right sweet potatoes can last up to a month. The climate that the sweet potatoes are given is key because if they are able to get wet they rot very easily. You should store them in a cupboard that you usually do not store much else in and that is a cool temperature. Always wash your sweet potatoes and allow them to sufficiently air dry before storing them away. Do not store them in a very tight bag because all potatoes need to 'breath'.
