This was my mothers favorite way to eat sweet potato. We often had them baked like that but, she used light brown sugar rather then honey. Always salt and fresh ground pepper. We never cut the flat spot or, the hash marks, and From now on, that will be my standard method. I can not wait to have my sisters over for dinner and present them these potato's, sitting nice and straight on the plate and with melted butter and sugar running all over the inside of the potato. My mom did use honey on acorn squash and butternut squash when they were in season, baked just like you did the potato minus the flat spot .. That flat cut is such a brilliant idea for the bottom of the veg. God bless you and thank you for all your cooking demo's that you are doing for us.

Very cute gentleman. I love the way he explains

[brendaspamperedkitchen]

I've learned to be a better cook because of you. Merry Christmas and God continue to bring comfort to your heart and home.

There's no way I could cut that in half and be that close to perfect.

[WastrelWay]

I do something like this with a potato, but I bake it whole, first. Then, after it cools a bit, I cut it in half, do the crosswise cuts and fry the cut halves in butter on a skillet until brown. Then add salt, pepper, more butter, cheese, etc.

Thinking of you this holiday, Jacques. Glad you are keeping busy.

[apawstate]

I will watch a Heston Blumenthal video on his hours long 3-stage process for making chips, but I always come back to stuff like this, because videos like this just make me happy.

[irishktnd]

You and your family have in my daily prayers. Blessings

I aspire to be like Jacques when I age, and show my recipies to my grandchildren.

Jacques is older here (85) than Julia (82) when they worked together on their PBS shows in 1994.
