My adaptation of one of the inaugural dishes, this is spicy, sweet and even a touch bitter from the molasses, but very nutritious. Makes 2 quarts, 16 servings of 1/2 cup each. Ingredients:
3 lbs sweet potatoes |
1 tbsp unsalted butter |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1 tablespoon blackstrap molasses |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 cup maple syrup |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
2. Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and roast 1 hour. Peel while still hot.
3. Mash potatoes with butter until all large chunks are gone in a large bowl, then add salt, orange juice, molasses, ginger, cinnamon, and syrup.
4. Mix together with a spatula until all lumps are gone.
