Rice cooker version of roasted sweet potatoes:

1. Choose sweet potatoes that are even in size, moderately fat and thin, and have no black spots on the surface. This way they will be evenly heated and cooked easily, and the taste will be the best. .

2. After selecting, we clean it. Do not peel the washed sweet potatoes. You can eat them with the skins on after roasting. Let me add here that the nutrition of the skin and meat of sweet potatoes is completely different. The meat is very tonic, while the skin is detoxifying, that is, it is detoxifying. Sweet potato meat nourishes the spleen and stomach, and sweet potato skin helps digestion; sweet potato meat nourishes qi, and sweet potato skin ventilates; sweet potato meat is acidic, and sweet potato skin is alkaline. Therefore, there are two benefits of keeping sweet potatoes with the skin. One is to prevent the loss of nutrients during the roasting process, and the other is to prevent heartburn from eating sweet potatoes.

3. Remove both ends of the sweet potato, and then use a thin toothpick to poke a layer of small holes on its surface, about 1 cm deep, in order to cook it faster.

4. Prepare a basin of light salt water and soak the processed sweet potatoes in the water for 20 minutes. The purpose of this step is to, firstly, promote the ripening time; secondly, to prevent heartburn and bloating. This is because there is a substance called "oxidase" in sweet potatoes. This substance enters the gastrointestinal tract and reacts to produce a large amount of carbon dioxide, causing people to have bloating, burping and other reactions. Soaking in salt water can weaken the power of oxidase. The third is to sweeten and increase the soft and waxy taste.

5. Put the soaked sweet potatoes into the rice cooker, pour in half a bowl of water. Some people say not to add water. I tried it for a while and the rice cooker stopped. Then cover the lid and press The cooking button will be ready in about 30 minutes. If you have an old-fashioned rice cooker at home, the same operation is done. If the temperature jumps to keep warm, just wait for the temperature to drop and press the cooking function again. It will be ready in about 30 minutes.

6. After the water is boiled out and the sugar juice is produced, turn it over every 5 minutes to allow it to heat evenly. Repeat this several times until the surface of the sweet potato is slightly browned. Use chopsticks to prick it. It is easy. It's done when pierced through.
