3 Methods for Preserving Sweet Potatoes Long Term - No Root Cellar

The sweet potato harvest fell short of expectation, but we have plenty. They have cured and are stored in the pantry right now. Unfortunately, the pantry is a little dryer than they can tolerate and the potatoes are shriveling up. We don't want to loose this high quality food so we prepare them for long term storage in different ways. Today Marti is preparing potatoes 3 ways: Baked to freeze, boiled to freeze, and canned in syrup. Canning sweet potatoes without a pressure canner is not USDA approved, but it is a traditional way of preserving them. To be on the safe side, Marti processed the potatoes for two hours instead of one.
