Caramelized Sweet Potatoes
Preparation time: 15 min 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), washed, ends removed
and diced into 1-inch squares
1/2 cup spiced glaze (see below) 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup 100% Pure Cane Syrup
1/2 cup dark molasses
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 cup water
Directions:
Combine the sugar, cane syrup, molasses, corn syrup, nutmeg, cloves,
allspice, and cinnamon in a medium-size bowl and mix well.
In another bowl, dissolve the mustard in the water, then add to the spice
mixture. Blend well.
Use immediately or store in an air tight container in the refrigerator
until ready to use.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a 2-quart glass rectangular baking dish
with butter.
Toss the sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the glaze to coat
evenly.
Pour them into the prepared pan and roast until fork-tender, about 1 hour.
Serve warm.
