The chile in this dish balances the sweetness of the potatoes, and the butter makes everything richer and more opulent. The chef Hugh Acheson said, "I left off the little marshmallows because I think we need to evolve...and my dentist friends would get mad at me." You can garnish sweet potatoes with a variety of things from cooked apples, to more cooked chiles, to hazelnuts or even a dollop of yogurt.

Steps:
- Place the sweet potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, season with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and cook until tender.
- While the sweet potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan, and when the butter bubbles and froths, add the jalapeno and the orange zest. Cook for 1 minute, turn off the heat and then add the cream. Set aside.
- When the sweet potatoes are fork tender, drain them in a colander set up in your sink. Let them drain completely, and then pass them through a ricer or mash them well with a potato masher.
- Add the flavored cream, stock, sorghum, nutmeg and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Mix well and transfer to a serving bowl.
