Dried sweet potatoes "answer questions": 1. Why not peel it before steaming?
A: Because peeling first has two disadvantages. One is that sweet potatoes will absorb more water without skin, and they will be more dependent on the weather when they are dried.

A: The production process of dried sweet potatoes is mainly a dehydration process, so it is more sweet and low in moisture, and it is easier to absorb moisture, so it is best to keep it vacuum or sealed.
Finally, I still want to remind you that although the dried sweet potatoes in this way are particularly delicious, you really should not eat too much. Because after removing a lot of water, its main components are starch, fiber and sugar, so the heat is really not low!
