Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Scrub the sweet potatoes well: Use a vegetable brush to scrub the sweet potatoes under running water to remove any dirt or debris.
- Poke the sweet potatoes with a fork: This will help them cook more evenly and prevent them from bursting.
- Use a large pot: The sweet potatoes will need plenty of room to cook, so use a pot that is large enough to hold them in a single layer.
- Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat: This will help the sweet potatoes cook more evenly.
- Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato. If it goes in easily, the potato is done.
- Drain the sweet potatoes and let them cool slightly: Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them cool for a few minutes before handling.
- Serve the sweet potatoes immediately: Sweet potatoes are best served warm, so serve them as soon as they are cooked.
