Notes

  • Make sure you cut your sweet potatoes in cubes of equal size so that they cook at the same time.
  • Just like you always salt your pasta water, you need to salt the water that the sweet potatoes cook in! If you add salt while cooking the potatoes, you won’t need to add much later on.
  • Store leftover mashed sweet potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
  • You can also freeze them in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 10 months.
