dried sweet potatoes

I dry up mashed sweet potatoes and use them in combo with instant potatoes. They are also very good added to stews….

these are shredded, as per Mike's directions.

So cooked or raw? I'd not waste my time with raw. But that is me.

I made a batch of these http://www.backpackingchef.com/sweet-potato-bark.html recently.

A little more prep-intensive than I'd like. This reminds me that I need to try them!

I blanched them, as mike suggested.

I'd use them just like instant hash browns…..so in stews that would work well.

Bob,

Mike mentions on page 122 on his book that he adds Thai peanut sauce on his. That sauce recipe is on the following page of the book (page 123). If you want / need the sauce recipe, let me know and I can send it as i have the book. I haven't tried this yet, but, it is on my list to solve this winter so I can use it next summer.

I cook them, mash them, spread the mash on parchment in my dehydrator, dehydrate them, run the dehydrated stuff through the blender to take the sharp edges off, then I'm good to go. So delicious.

Same here and I add some sugar, cinnamon, after rehydrating, sprinkle some finely mashed graham cracker on it and you have a kind of sweet potato pie.
