What is the white liquid in sweet potatoes when slicing?
The white liquid that appears when slicing a sweet potato is composed of starch and water. When the potato is cut into pieces, the starch granules quickly absorb the water from the surrounding cells, forming a gel. This gel acts as a protective layer, preventing the potato from drying out and turning brown.
