Sharon - sweet potatoes

[Guest guest]

Sharon,

The link didn't work. Could you try it again or make a www.tinyurl.com with it

and then it won't be to long to stay clickable? These sound good. It is nice

that your daughter was able to make a great impression with these. You're

doing a great job of teaching her how to make yummy things. Homemade sweet

rolls are so good.........

Re: sweet potatoes

 

 

I've never tried freezing mashed sweet potatoes, but regular potatoes do

not freeze well, so you might want to experiment before freezing a whole

bunch. Whole uncooked sweet potatoes tend to last a long time so they

should be OK by Christmas.

 

As to the rolls, I would suggest the bread my great grandmother used to

make. The recipe has been handed down and I just taught my daughter how

to make dinner rolls and breakfast cinnamon rolls using this recipe.

It's unbelievably yummy, though it is a bit involved. To form the dough

into rolls, you take about half the dough, roll it into a large

rectangle, spread with softened butter and sprinkle liberally with

cinnamon sugar and toss on raisins. Roll it up and pinch closed - place

seam side down on the cutting board. Slice into 1 " pieces and place

them - cut side up - into a buttered 9x13 pan so they are snugged up

against each other. Let it rise until doubled. Brush liberally with

melted butter and pop into an oven. A 350degree oven for about 40

minutes should be about right - they should be golden brown and have a

hollow sound when you tap it.

 

Seriously try these, they are SOOOO good. I only make them a couple

times a year because they are so decadent. My daughter was the hit of

her dad's Thanksgiving when she made these as dinner rolls. :-)

I am a holdout with the tinyurls, for some reason. You can find the

recipe in the Bread Folder, under Yeast Breads. They're called Biocca

Rolls. :-)
