Now I have them whenever I can! This is a great side dish anywhere you would regularly serve mashed potatoes. Honestly, I've eaten a bowl of just this as a meal. Feel free to season as you'd like.

CREAMED SWEET POTATOES



Creamed Sweet Potatoes image

This was a fantastic side dish for our Thanksgiving feast. I doesn't make a huge bowl full, but we found it to be the perfect amount. I only used 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, but I could have used a little more. I thought there was too much butter however. 1/4 cup would have been plenty. This recipe is from The Castle, Natchez, Mississippi and featured recently in an article in Taste of the South.

Tips:

  • Choose the best rutabagas and sweet potatoes: Select firm, smooth rutabagas and sweet potatoes with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller vegetables tend to be sweeter and more tender, and organic vegetables are always a good choice.
  • Peel and cut the vegetables evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the vegetables are not cut evenly, the smaller pieces will overcook while the larger pieces are still undercooked.
  • Cook the vegetables until tender: The vegetables should be tender enough to easily pierce with a fork, but not so soft that they fall apart.
  • Use a good quality cream: The cream is the key ingredient in this dish, so make sure to use a good quality cream that is at least 35% fat.
  • Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the dish immediately: Creamed rutabaga and sweet potato is best served immediately after it is made. The cream can thicken and become lumpy if the dish is allowed to sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Creamed rutabaga and sweet potato is a delicious and nutritious side dish that is perfect for a holiday meal or a weeknight dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With its creamy texture and sweet flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
