SWEET POTATOES -
GENERAL COOKING INSTRUCTIONS


BAKING: Pierce the potatoes with a fork before baking to let the steam escape. To speed clean up, place potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet to catch juices that escape during cooking.
Cooking time: 30 to 60 minutes in a 400°F oven, depending on size.

BOILING: If cooked whole, sweet potatoes do not need to be peeled. The skins will slip off easily when they are done, leaving most of the nutrients intact. The skin is edible, however, and supplies additional dietary fiber
Cooking time: for whole potatoes, 15 to 35 minutes; for chunks, 10 to 15 minutes.

MICROWAVING: Pierce potatoes several times with a fork and place on a paper towel. After taking potatoes out of the microwave, wrap in foil and let stand five to ten minutes.
Cooking time: for two medium potatoes, five to nine minutes; for four, 10 to 13 minutes.
