Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Courtesy of cooks.com

Ingredients

* 5 or 6 large sweet potatoes, peeled

* 1 stick butter

* 1/2 tsp. sea salt

* 1/4 tsp. black pepper (optional)

* 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (more or less, to taste)

Directions

1. Peel potatoes and cut into quarters. Simmer in a large 3-4 quart pot of water with 2 tsp. salt added to water.

2. After 20 minutes or so, test potatoes with a fork to see if they are fully tender.

3. When cooked, drain water and return sweet potatoes to pan over still-warm burner (leave burner off or on very low heat).

4. Add butter to bottom of pan and stir until melted. Using a potato masher, mash the sweet potatoes with the butter, adding salt and pepper, to taste. Add honey to sweeten, stirring thoroughly.

5. Do not over sweeten the potatoes; the honey should be barely perceptible but it should enhance the natural sweetness of the potatoes.
