Baking sweet potatoes intensifies their sweetness, so they’re pretty much ready to eat as soon as they come out of the oven. If you’re hankering for a way to enhance the natural sugars, try drizzling the potatoes with maple syrup, or topping with brown sugar, cinnamon, and freshly grated orange zest. For a more savory dinner, top with caramelized onions, or garlicky chickpeas with feta and fresh herbs. Roasted broccoli is also a favorite. Store un-baked potatoes in a cool, dark, dry place. And remember: sweet potatoes have a far shorter shelf life than regular potatoes, only 2 to 4 weeks.
