1. Appearance DifferenceYacon is a plant of the Asteraceae family and the genus Asteraceae. It is now sold as a fruit, but it belongs to two different plants from sweet potato and is essentially different from them. Its outer skin is smooth and relatively flat. The leaves and branches are very similar to hemp plants. When the fruit is ripe, flowers will bloom on the branches, which look more like sunflowers. Although the fruit part is more like sweet potato, the seed part is more like ginger. Sweet potato is a plant of the Convolvulaceae family and is a crop. Its skin is not smooth, but has small pits or protrusions. The surface color is darker, mostly red, but also brown. The leaves are dicotyledonous and have pubescence on both sides of the leaves. The flowers grow in the leaf axils and leaf tops, are purple or light red in color, and look very much like morning glories, in a funnel shape. 2. Difference in tasteYacon is usually eaten raw. It tastes crispy, sweet and contains a lot of water. The nutritional value is very high, containing multiple vitamins, etc., which is good for the body. Although sweet potatoes can be eaten raw, they are usually eaten cooked. Its main ingredient is starch, which can be eaten to satisfy hunger. 3. Picture appreciation |
