If you’re trying to find vegetables that start with U, we’re here to help. Here is a list of all the vegetables we could find that start with the letter “U.”
1. Ube
Ube is also often called the purple yam. It’s a type of tuber that’s known for its deep purple color, but you can also find it in white.
You’ll usually find ube in Asian countries, where it is cooked into many desserts, including cakes and pastries. It has recently started to appear in the United States.
2. Udupi Mattu Gulla Eggplant
The Udupi mattu gulla is a specific kind of eggplant. It has been grown for hundreds of years and is used in South Indian cooking.
3. Ulluco
In some South American countries, ulluco is the one of the most popular crops grown. Most people eat only the tuber, although you can eat the leaf, which has a taste like spinach.
4. Ulster Emblem Potato
The Ulster Emblem is a type of potato that came from Ireland in 1966. It has pale-colored skin and is described as having a pleasant taste that makes it suitable for cooking.
5. Umatilla Russet Potato
Umatilla russet is another type of potato. It’s particularly useful for making frozen French fries and comes from the United States. This potato was named after the Umatilla Native American tribe.
6. Upland Cress
People in England have been growing upland cress as a leafy vegetable for hundreds of years. Because it doesn’t need as much water as watercress, it is frequently used as a substitute for watercress.
You can put it in salads, soups, or sandwiches.
7. Urad Bean
This South Asian bean is especially popular in India. You can use it to make dosa batter or simply eat it whole.
