The most “outrageous” way to eat sweet potatoes: turning them into stinky bean paste.【Diān xī xiǎo gē】

When ingredients grow in Yunnan, surprises are always guaranteed.
Roasted sweet potatoes, steamed sweet potatoes, boiled sweet potatoes—those are all familiar. But after being steamed, wrapped up to ferment until stinky, then mixed with salt, chili, and Sichuan pepper to become a spicy fermented paste… that’s a destiny no sweet potato could ever imagine.
And this kind of flavor—only those who’ve tasted it will truly understand.
Stinky yet sticky, fragrant and fiery, chewy and completely addictive…
Ah, forget it—there’s no way to explain it to people who haven’t eaten it anyway.
