Sweet Potato Ice Bath Method

If you are looking for the ultimate way to upgrade your sweet potatoes, this ice bath method is a total game changer. Instead of simply baking them once, this technique uses a bake–ice bath–bake process to transform the texture and flavor. The quick chill in an ice bath helps create an ultra-creamy interior, while the second high-heat bake brings out deep caramelization and natural sweetness on the outside.
