  20. The first 2 times they are cooked over medium heat, and the last 2 times they should be cooked over low heat.

  22. Replace the lid, turn off the heat and let sit for 15 minutes.

  24. Piping hot and moist... and sweet Please be sure to try these baked sweet potatoes, made delicious by using Staub.
  25. This recipe calls for sweet potatoes that are 6 cm thick at the fattest part.
  26. I found that fatter ones take a really long time to cook.
  27. Adjust the cooking time in Steps 9-11 according to the size of the sweet potatoes.
  28. The recipe says that Steps 9-11 will take 30 minutes, but this may take at least 50 minutes if the sweet potatoes are fat.
