BOURBON SWEET POTATOES RECIPE



Bourbon Sweet Potatoes Recipe image

Turkey with stuffing is just fine for Thanksgiving, but nothing comes close to a serving of these bourbon-spiked sweet spuds. As a kid, my uncle once told me I couldn't have any because they had "firewater" in them. I'm pretty sure that was so he could have more for himself. Some people like a sticky marshmallow topping, but I think this version is a much better way to add a little spunk to the humble yam.

SWEET POTATOES WITH BOURBON AND BROWN SUGAR



Sweet Potatoes With Bourbon and Brown Sugar image

These silky mashed sweet potatoes are spiced with cloves, nutmeg and a little black pepper, brightened with lemon zest, and spiked with bourbon (or orange juice, if you'd prefer). Puréeing them in a food processor yields the smoothest, airiest texture, but for something a little more rustic, you could mash them by hand. Whichever you choose, these reheat well, either in a microwave or in a pot over low heat.

(Or, for a chunkier texture, mash them by hand.) Taste and add salt, sugar or both if you like. Serve while still warm or reheat before serving.

BOURBON SWEET POTATOES



Bourbon Sweet Potatoes image

Only a Southerner, inheritor of the infamous Southern sweet tooth, would add massive quantities of butter and sugar to a dish and still regard it as a vegetable. Add a shot of bourbon? No problem.

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, plus more for the baking dish
4 to 6 sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced about 1/2 inch thick
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup bourbon
2 tablespoons sorghum, cane, or maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter an ovenproof gratin or casserole dish. Arrange the sweet potato slices in the prepared dish and season with salt and pepper.
