Roasting sweet potatoes is a light and easy task, but there is a way to further enhance its flavor and taste. This quick little slap does not even require any complicated equipment. It only requires a few spoons of water and a sheet of aluminium foil paper. Wrap the sweet potatoes before baking and you can bake the softest and densest sweet potatoes.

This simple secret shared by netizen Utokia Langley on TikTok can make the inside of the roasted sweet potatoes soft like cotton wool, because during the baking process, steam is wrapped in aluminium foil paper, which has a steam bath effect. In addition to preventing the sweet potatoes from drying, it can also make the skin smooth, soft and have a great taste. Compared with the traditional baking process, this water-added baking method can greatly enhance the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes by just a little more effort.

Before preparing to bake, first scrub the sweet potatoes, then place the washed sweet potatoes on the aluminium foil paper, lift the two sides upwards to form a baking state, and pour 4 to 5 spoons of water; then seal the aluminium foil paper to prevent water from overflowing, then place the sweet potatoes in a baking pan and bake in the oven. Blue Geri said that sweet potatoes can also be placed directly on the grill, but the advantage of putting them on the baking plate is that if there is a juice spill, it will not dirty the bottom of the oven and produce a strange smell.

After the sweet potato is roasted, open the aluminium foil paper and cut it to reveal the delicious, soft orange pulp in the middle. Blue Giri said that because a little water is added during the baking process to generate steam, the sweet potatoes are roasted more evenly and have a softer and denser taste.
