Instructions

Wash and dry your sweet potato. Prick it a few times with a knife. Roast on a baking sheet at 375F for 90 minutes (a little longer for bigger potatoes). At about 45 minutes the potato is technically “done” but keep it going to allow for natural sugars to caramelize and the interior to transform into a creamy custard. Serve with good butter and as much flaky salt as your heart calls for.
