Sweet Potato

5 recipes 4 guides

Sweet potatoes bring dense, creamy flesh, gentle sweetness, and enough starch to anchor fillings, gratins, curries, and pastry. Roasting concentrates their sugars and browns the edges, while simmering makes them soft enough to blend into a sauce. The common mistake is underseasoning: they need salt, acid, or savory spices to keep their sweetness from dominating.
