Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for medium-sized sweet potatoes with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid any that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes before baking: This will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from bursting.
  • Bake the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork or knife into the center of a potato. If it goes in easily, the potato is done.
  • Use a potato ricer or masher to get smooth mashed sweet potatoes: This will help you achieve the perfect creamy texture.
  • Add butter, milk, and spices to taste: This will help enhance the flavor of the mashed sweet potatoes.
  • For a sweeter dish, add marshmallows: This is a classic addition that many people love.
  • For a more savory dish, add bacon or crumbled sausage: This will add a nice smoky flavor.
  • Serve the mashed sweet potatoes warm: This is the best way to enjoy their flavor and texture.
