How to make homemade dried sweet potatoes

In our busy lives, more and more people tend to order takeout and ignore truly green and healthy home-cooked meals. Homemade dried sweet potatoes are a very delicious home-cooked dish. Squeeze out a little time from your busy life to make some side dishes to reward yourself. Don’t let life wear you down.

1. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, and put them directly into the steamer without cutting. Steam them over high heat until they are 70% to 80% cooked. Use chopsticks to poke a smaller sweet potato, just use a little force to pierce through it.

2. After steaming, dry the whole thing in the sun until the surface is dry. I used a food dryer and dried it at 65 degrees for 3 hours.

3. Slice or cut into strips to any thickness you like. The thinner the finished product, the tougher it will be, while the thicker it will be more glutinous. Continue to dry in the dryer for 6 or 7 hours.

4. The next step is very important and cannot be omitted. The dried sweet potatoes should be steamed in a steamer or rice cooker. The steaming time should be adjusted according to the degree of maturity of the sweet potatoes when you steam them for the first time. If the sweet potatoes are relatively raw, steam them for a little longer. I steamed it for about 10 minutes.

5. Continue to dry in the sun after steaming. The drier it is, the chewier it will be. Dry in the sun until you like the hardness.

Eating out may cause various problems and may also damage your health. The method of making homemade dried sweet potatoes is not complicated and has considerable benefits for your health.
