Tips:
1. Selection of sweet potatoes: Sweet potatoes are generally divided into yellow and white sweet potatoes. Yellow sweet potatoes have a long body shape, pale pink skin, more sugar, sweet, soft and glutinous after cooking; The white sweet potato skin is generally dark red or purple-red, containing more starch, and the flesh is white after cooking, and the taste is sweet, dry and powdery. To make this little dessert, it is best to choose sweet potatoes with yellow hearts, which are softer and sweeter, and then the sweet potatoes are more uniform in size, so that they can ripen at the same time.
2. The boiling time is adjusted appropriately according to the size of the sweet potato. Ingredients such as rock sugar and osmanthus sauce are adjusted according to the amount of sweet potatoes as the main ingredient.
