Since the market I was at was roasting some, I picked up one for us to try.
The variety that they were using is called Benitenshi (literally pink angel) from Ibaraki prefecture. (how cute is the package?!)
To tell you the truth, I hadn't bought sweet potatoes in awhile because whenever I would steam them, they would come out quite dry.
I'm glad we got to try them this way and will definitely buy again when I see it.

awesome finds Kat ^-^
One of the Missus's favorite things....though they can be quite expensive.
Seeing your pix of yaki imo, we were walking thru Nishiki Market and saw a yaki imo stall...1 piece 350yen. O!M!G! Itwas awful. She gave us 2 tiny imo each only about finger length in size. One piece was totally inedible, burnt and dried.
