OG: what?

[melv16]

Thanks for your replies. It'll save me peeling 'em:-)

[Old_Geezer]

Errr... cooked sweet potatoes as jacket potatoes ?

[melv16]

They were huge, so I had to peel them after all:-(

[Tilly2]

They're not easy to peel are they?

[melv16]

Too right, tilly.

[Tilly2]

Nasty, dusty things!

[melv16]

Worth it in the end, though. Especially when sprinkled with sesame seeds :-)

[Tilly2]

They are nice. They're just a pain to prepare.

I wonder if you can get frozen chunks?

I love baked sweet potatoes as I find them much lighter on the digestive system than regular spuds.

A tad confused by those who find the skins troublesome, personally I find the flesh of sweet potatoes shrinks away from the skin much better.

When I do baked sweet potatoes I like a dollop of sour cream and a spoon of chilli jam on top, a lovely combination depending on the rest of the meal. A bog standard spud a lather in butter and black pepper and scoff the skin with another smear of butter and seasoning.

I love them mashed - microwave then scoop out the flesh, easy.

Yes you can buy chunks frozen.

So does anyone here eat the skin on a baked sweet potato?

[Tilly2]

Thank you, Mamya.
