Quick Question - Swt. Tato Fries

[cjs]

Who peels their sweet potatoes for fries????

Why the heck do I? I never peel any other kind of tato for them?

Hmmmmm - don't have time to start a survey, but I hope I get some quick answers, we're back to mid-day dinner.

I peel them. Don't know why.

you know I am probably the only one is the world who doesn't like any
sweet potato or yam -
Something about the idea of "Sweet" and potatoe just doesn't jive with me.

But all the classes I have taken - they always peel them - have you ever

tasted a peel - its kind of bitter

So a;nyway Jean that my two cents.

You know Marye, I don't really love them either, but my family does. I would never think of them otherwise. I feel left out too. I would love to love them. But I don't. The only recipe I had was fries with chili powder on them. They were tolerable then. But otherwise I can take em or leave em.

Jean, to me, the skin on a sweet potato seems thicker and tougher than other types of potatoes. But then I've never tried it. I considered it the last time I made them, but chickened out. Maybe you could test one and let us know.

I went ahead and left it on and we loved it! I love leaving them on for the nutritional value, so I'm a convert.

Good to know, Jean. I'll try that next time.
