Any Q

You can either peel or leave the skin on: just make sure to cut off any black spots. Place the sweet potatoes in a pot and cover with 1 inch of lukewarm water; add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender when pierced with a fork, around 7 to 12 minutes. Then drain. 4 сент. 2021 г.


Do you have to peel a sweet potato to cook it?

Sweet potatoes have a relatively thin outer skin which can be eaten when roasted. However, caramelization will not occur around the entire potato with the skin left on. For the best eating experience, pull out the peeler when roasting smaller pieces. I prefer to leave the skin on when making whole baked sweet potatoes.

How long do you boil sweet potatoes to get the skin off?

Boil sweet potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
