Nowadays, Sweet Potato Fries are practically ubiquitous (okay, sure, most folks call them fries); from gastropubs to fast food joints, and yes, grocery store freezer cases. When we first introduced them, however, they were much less common – so uncommon in fact, that there were some that called us foolhardy (that can happen). We won’t attempt to take credit for any kind of trend-setting here, but we will boast of having the best sweet potato fries you can get out of a freezer.

Trader Joe’s Sweet Potato Fries are bright, golden-orange spears of sweet potato with the skins removed. They’re steam-blanched and par-fried before being frozen, so they retain their fresh flavor and vibrant color. They bake to a crisp exterior that yields to a creamy-yet-still-slightly-firm interior. They’re mildly sweet (naturally), making them an excellent companion to all kinds of dips, sauces, ketchups, or a sprinkling of our Ranch Seasoning Blend, to name but a few.
