Receta Japanese Snack/Dessert: Daigaku Imo/”University Sweet Potatoes”
Add a photoDaigaku Imo litterally means “University Sweet Potato”!
This snack/dessert became popular in the 1910’s in the vicinity of kanda in Tokyo where students were queuing at food stands serving them. They made for a hearty, cheap and nutritious food for hungry students, men and ladies alike. In the late 1920’s Tokyo University students were selling for pocket money. In 1940 they were sold by Mikawaya Store.
They are still very popular and are often cooked at homes or in Izakayas!

Direcciones
- -Clean the sweet potato and cut into one-bite dices (keep the skin on, itâs full of nutritious ingredients!). Throw them in a large pan. Pour oil on top and fry over a medium fire.
- -The oil will heat up until it reaches 170 degrees Celsius. At that time the sweet potato will have attained a golden colour. Take the sweet potato dices out and let them rest on a kitchen paper to take off excess oil.
- -Empty the pan of its oil and wipe the indide with kitchen paper and pour the sauce (tare) ingredients into it.
- -Simmer over a medium fire. When bubbles appear, throw in the sweet potato dices and toss them until they are well-coate with the sauce.
