You just buy extras.
If you are baking them whole, you bake extras. HTH :-)

No such thing as yams in the USA Barb. "Yam" was applied to sweet
potatoes as a marketing ploy by the State of Louisiana. Yams are native
to Africa and don't grow well here.
Sweet potato selection: look for a firm tater, no loose skin or skinned
spots or dark spots. I like to pick taters with a few hair roots still
on them, means they're fairly fresh to me. Other than that you have to
take your chances since they're probably shipped in to Southern Canada
where you live. Down here in Loosyanna we get them straight from the
farmer or, at most, from one state over, either Arkansas, Texas, or
Mississippi. Be aware that a lot of scrawny, gnarly sweet taters are on
the market out there. Looked at some yesterday and was plumb
disappointed in the selection. Went to another market and they had big,
firm taters with the reddish skin. Gonna cook one for my supper tonight. HTH

Gee, I've never experienced that... is this some new disease? I bake whole
yammies and/or sweet potooties every thanksgiving but the only thing I am
fanatical about is choosing that they are all the same size and shape so they
will bake evenly. All I do is scrub them well and line them up in a jelly roll
pan to bake. This year I have six of each... now you have me worried.
All of a sudden I discovered that I will be having more guests than I
originally anticipated, so I went out to get a larger turkey and also got the
six sweet potooties to add to my six yammies. I was concerned about not having
enough oven space for my larger turkey and two pans of yammies and potooties
until I realized I have another stove in my empty rental house... problem
solved... sometimes even I don't think. I even have another fridge in there,
gotta keep that in mind.

Most likely an early season sweet potato from your supplier. The first sweet
potatoes of the season often have these black spots in them. Later in the
season they will not be as frequent, if at all.

Thanks, Jorge. I think I'm going to cook this sucker today just for the
helluva it. Beck and I are the only ones interested in them so if it's
a good 'un, I'll bring it up on Wednesday --- maybe.

If you're a diabetic, as I am, you learn to like sweet potatoes, they're
low on the glycemic index, ie low in sugars, ie carbs. Lots of fiber though.

Actually sweet potatoes are quite high in carbs... about 35 grams per cup (135
grams)... which is why they are called *sweet* potatoes.

Pick firm ones with no spots.
I also get the smallest ones I can.
They seem to be in better shape than the hyooge ones!
I pressure cook mine now. I had such good results from
doing that last year, I'll be doing that from now on!
Easier to peel and no gooey mess in the oven. :-P

So far I have not found a black spot in a sweet potato. You could buy an
extra one just in case. I find black spots in russet potatoes
sometimes.
I have a few friends who live in the northeast and they tell me that
sweet potatoes are only available at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Is
this true?

Not in my corner of New England. They're in the supermarkets year
round. I put them in beef stew, baked instead of regular potatoes a lot
of the time, and in curry soup.

Thanks. I peel, chunk, and nuke mine in a covered container, as I would
for a regular spud.

Quite so, but on the glycemic index, which is also important
(especially if you are diabetic, or you follow conventional rather
than low-carb weight-loss diets, or you are an athlete in training, or
you cook for anyone in these categories), sweet potatoes rank quite
low (depending on who compiled the index, somewhere around 50-55,
whereas true potatoes are close to or over 100). This means you can
eat them without stimulating the rebound hypoglycemia or carbohydrate
cravings that high-glycemic-index foods induce.
Of course, if you turn them into sweet potato casserole with lots of
butter and brown sugar, or into sweet potato pie, that
low-glycemic-index advantage is readily dispensed with.

That would be my last preference. Sweet potatoes definitely benefit from a
long, slow bake no matter what the resultant dish is going to be. It
improves texture and flavor, and emphsizes the natural sweetness.

No doubt. But my using the oven rarely coincides with having a sweet
potato around. :-0( And I won't heat the oven for one potato.

Electric oven, or gas? In the winter, a gas oven heats the house more
efficiently than your furnace does -- so it doesn't actually waste any
energy to run the oven for just one little item, it saves energy. Even
if you have an electric oven, the energy is not wasted (because it helps
heat the house.)

I cut the ends of my sweet potatoes, scrub the rest, coat them in olive oil
(any cooking oil will do), roll them in tin foil, and put them in the oven
at 350 for about an hour.
I raise my own, here in zone 5. Very easy to do. I raise my own slips in
the house and plant them the end of May. I dig the crop in Sept before the
first frost. I give away the big ones and eat the smaller ones. Everyone
who raises them knows that the smaller ones have the best flavor.
They have to be cured properly after harvesting. Curing makes the starch
turn into sugar, making them sweet enough to eat without adding brown sugar.
Coating them in oil and wrapping in tin foil keeps the moisture inside, so
we don't have to put butter on them. (I am diabetic and that is a life
saver for me).
I just canned my first 14 pints the other day, after cooking, mashing adding
Splenda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. It tasted very good going into the jars, I
hope it tastes as well at serving time.
Have fun and enjoy. Dwayne

Dwayne, I can't tell from your words if this is the first time ever
you've canned them, or if this is the year's first batch. Regardless,
the recommendations for canning caution _against_ mashing before canning
(you used a steam pressure canner, right?). It has to do with density
of the low-acid product and heat penetration.
Here's the poop on canning sweet potatoes - chunks:
< http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/how/can_04/potato_sweet.html>
The National Center for Home Food Preservation is housed at the U of
Georgia and is currently the only place research is happening on behalf
of the USDA for its home food preserving guidelines. Good folks there,
and their website is a gem. If you haven't already done so, have a
look. I like that its search features will also allow you to search
only University sites.

Is there any way to further cure at home sweet potatoes bought from
the supermarket?
I've had a heck of a time finding truly sweet ones over the last few
years or so and always have to add brown sugar or honey. They used to
exude a sticky brown surgary substance when baked. Nowdays, they
rarely do.

I get good results from cooking in microwave, better if you can use a mw
cover dealy with holes. Concentrates the heat/steam. But this results in a
moist, steamy potato as opposed to a roasted carmelized potato. Good stuff
either way.

OK, I peeled, chunked, and boiled my sweet potato, then mashed it with
butter and brown sugar -- no problems with black/grey/discolored parts.
I think maybe I was having that because I've always peeled and nuked the
potato in just a little bit of water. That still doesn't explain why or
what it is, but it didn't happen with the one I boiled. Oh, I bought
one o' them garnet ones today. Maybe I'll cook that one on Tuesday to
take with us.
Cranberry sauce: I make mine in the microwave and added a couple
sprinkles of ground clove, ginger, and cinnamon. Very good. Had some
with the last of that blinkin' pork roast I made last week. I think we
had five meals out of that 2-1/2 pound chunk of meat!

I don't know. To cure them ideally they are to be placed in a place that is
80 degrees F and 80 to 90 percent humidity for 10 days. Since I cant
duplicate those conditions here, I put them in a ventilated 4 - one gallon
milk carrying container (ventilated or you can lay them out individually on
something). Then I set them in the warmest room in the house (usually my
furnace room) for two weeks.
Never store them in the refrigerator. Temps below 50 degrees will reverse
the process and you can never get them to go back.
Try the smaller ones that are available to you in the store, or try growing
your own. I have raised them on the back porch in a plastic container. I
only got one keeper per container, but they were good eating.

It was my first time ever to can them. I still have more stored in the
basement that I can leave and use or can at a later date (I am running out
of jars). I got the canner as an anniversary present 26 years ago and was
afraid to use it until now. I just followed the instructions that came with
it in 1978.
Thanks for the reference. I printed it for my canning information book.
