Sweet Potato Casserole with Bourbon and Pineapple image

From http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Bourbon-Pineapple-Sweet-Potato-Casserole I found this recipe on JaP; it had been pinched from the above site but the pinch was faulty so I went ahead and did a manual copy. The pic I used is from that site; I have credited the photographer in pic description.

Time 2h35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 1/2 lb sweet potatoes, raw
1/2 c brown sugar, dark
1/4 c bourbon
4 Tbsp butter, unsalted
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp cinnamon, ground
1 tsp ginger, ground
1/2 tsp allspice, ground
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
2 eggs
1 can(s) pineapple, crushed (8 oz can)
1 c sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 egg whites

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350°. Place potatoes on a foil-lined baking sheet; bake until tender, about 1½ hours. Peel and transfer to a food processor along with brown sugar, bourbon, butter, 1 tsp. salt, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, pepper, eggs, and pineapple; puree. Transfer to a 9" x 13" baking dish; bake until heated through, about 25 minutes.
  • 2. While casserole bakes, bring sugar, and ¼ cup water to a boil in a 1-qt. saucepan over high heat; attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, and cook, without stirring, until syrup reaches 250°. Meanwhile, place remaining salt, vanilla, and egg whites in a large bowl; beat on medium-high speed of a hand mixer until soft peaks form. While beating, slowly drizzle in hot syrup, and beat until meringue is thickened and cooled.
  • 3. Heat broiler to high. Spread meringue over casserole; broil until lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
  • 4. Personal NOTE: You can probably use canned chunk sweet potatoes to decrease prep time. Just add the ounces on each can until you get 5 1/2 lbs (88 ounces) or thereabouts (cans may weigh less or more than 16 ounces--it's okay to have slightly less or slightly more than the given amount). Since I am unsure if the can's measurement includes the liquid, you might want to get one extra can, just in case; so when you taste it before baking, if it seems like it needs more sweet potato flavor you can add some. Also, the instructions do not indicate whether the pineapple should be drained, so I would drain it first and reserve the liquid, then if the pineapple-sweet potato mixture seems like it's too dry you can add in the pineapple water.

AWESOME SWEET POTATO CASSEROLE

This recipe was given to me in the late 1980s by Diane Thornton in Jackson Mississippi. I have made it each year since, and when I bring it to gatherings people rave about it, so I bring it year after year. Some people say it's more like a desert than a side dish. All I know is that it's a standby for me and always gets a nod.
