The yacon tubers can be enjoyed raw or cooked, leaves can be used to make an herb tea that is used as a medicine and yacon syrup can be used as a substitution for sugar in baked goods. Because yacon tubers are sweet, juicy and crisp, they are perfect for use in salads. In addition, they can be grilled, fried, baked, sautéed and marinated. Use in curry, stir-fries, soups, fried dishes and juices. Choose ones that are slim without scratches on the surface and avoid those with shriveled cuts. A soft surface of yacon tubers indicate that they are old, so pick ones that are heavy and have a firm surface.
