Description
The yacón (Smallanthus sonchifolius) is a species of perennial daisy traditionally grown in the northern and central Andes for its crisp, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots. Their texture and flavor are very similar to jicama except that yacon has some slightly sweet, resinous and floral undertones to its flavor.
