Subj : Fall Dinners - 02 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Wed Nov 16 2022 13:25:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Sweet Potatoes w/Tahini Butter Categories: Potatoes, Citrus, Vegetables, Herbs Yield: 5 servings 2 1/2 lb Sweet potatoes; any color, - washed 6 tb Unsalted butter; room temp 1/4 c Well-stirred tahini 3 tb Fresh squeezed lime juice Lime wedges; for serving 2 tb Soy sauce 1 ts Toasted sesame oil 1 cl Garlic; fine grated or - pounded smooth +=WITH=+ pn Salt Salt & fresh ground pepper 2 tb White sesame seeds Flaky sea salt; for serving Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a medium pot fitted with a steamer basket or footed colander. Place sweet potatoes in the steamer. Cover, reduce heat to medium and steam until potatoes are completely tender, 35 to 40 minutes. (Use a skewer or paring knife to check for doneness; the potatoes should be soft all the way through.) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk butter, tahini, lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic until smooth. It might seem as if the butter and liquids will never fully combine, but they will - just keep stirring! Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper and more lime juice as needed. Set a small pan over medium heat. Toast the sesame seeds, swirling the pan continuously, until seeds are golden. TheyrCOll give off some oil and start to clump together, so if needed, stir with a wooden spoon to keep them moving so that they toast evenly. TheyrCOll turn a nice deep-golden shade just as they dry off a bit, about 4 minutes. Transfer seeds to a small bowl to prevent them from overcooking. When the sweet potatoes are tender, use tongs to transfer them to a large plate or platter. When they are just cool enough to handle, split potatoes in half lengthwise, and season with flaky salt. Spread tahini butter generously onto the flesh, and top with sesame seeds. Serve immediately with lime wedges. by Samin Nosrat YIELD: 4 to 6 servings RECIPE FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
