Japanese Soy Glazed Sweet Potato image

This is a really tasty dish which we like as part of a Japanese meal- usually we'll serve with a tofu miso soup, steamed short grain rice and a salad made with Recipe #362130. I'm not sure how many serves but would serve 4 in this style meal. To make it faster, I often microwave the potato for 5 minutes first and leave out the water when baking. This way it's done in about 30 minutes.
