How to Cook Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are nutritious, but they can be very tricky to cook well. They’re hard to cut because they have a hard skin that’s not meant to be cut. Plus, they have a high moisture content, which makes them steam inside when they’re cooked. Sweet potatoes work well in many dishes, but they’re often underused and underappreciated. They’re often thought of as a side dish, but they’re actually a complete food that has a lot of nutrients. This is because sweet potatoes are full of nutrients, including vitamins and minerals, and they have good amounts of dietary fiber. They also have antioxidants called carotenoids, which help fight cancer. Here are a few more benefits of sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes contain beta-carotene, which is a form of vitamin A. Vitamin A is important for healthy vision and strong bones. Sweet potatoes are also a good source of fiber, which can help keep your gut healthy.
