Origin of the sweet potato
The origin of the sweet potato appears to be Central America.
It was introduced to Japan from China during the Edo period.
Most things have always come from China.
The sweet potato is called ” Satsuma imo ” in Japan.
This is because the first place in Japan where it was introduced was Kagoshima Prefecture.
Kagoshima Prefecture used to be called Satsuma.
Potatoes are called “imo” .
It is called ” satsuma imo” because it is a potato from Satsuma.
It is surprisingly simple and easy to understand.
