Nice pictures, a bit low on instruction (not all of us know how to roll a temaki). I probably would not make any of these (many recipes call for peppers and/or dairy), especially since it is so easy just to roast them in the toaster oven (rather than pureeing, or turning into gnocchi, or shredding, or frying), but if you are looking for ideas on toppings/seasonings, there is a lot of inspiration to be found here.

Sweet potatoes add much flavor, texture, color, and nutrients to any dish in which they are featured. Dress ‘em up, dress ‘em down, they work wonderfully in recipes sweet or savory like appetizers, main courses, soups, sides, breads, and of course, desserts. “Sweet Potatoes: Roasted, Loaded, Fried, and Made into Pie”, by Mary-Frances Heck enthusiastically opens up a world of sweet potato possibilities with 60 recipes such as: Creamy Cacio e Pepe; Fluffy Biscuits; Hearty Meat-Free Tacos; Orange-Glazed Cake Doughnuts; Ultimate Cream Cheese Cinnamon Rolls, Trail Mix Cookies; Ice Cream with Browned Meringue; Savory Egg-Topped Galette; Indian Palak Aloo; Chinese Black Date Chicken; and Spanish Huevos Rotos. Sweet Potatoes are plentiful, affordable, and easy to prepare. I have long been a fan of simple baked sweet potatoes, sweet potato pie, and sweet potato fries, but this book from Mary-Frances Heck offers insight into the way sweet potatoes are used in the cuisines from cultures around the world. It’s good fun, and good for you too, to “cook outside your recipe box”—especially with a favorite “superfood” like sweet potatoes. Mary-Frances Heck is a freelance food editor and contributor to Lucky Peach. Her recipes and writing have appeared in numerous cookbooks and magazines including Bon Appetit, Saveur, Cooking Light, Redbook, Rodale's Organic Life, Fitness, Rachael Ray Every Day, SELF, and SHAPE.

Sweet potatoes are one of my very favorite foods and always has been. So I was delighted to get a copy of this cookbook, featuring nothing but sweet potato recipes.

The book starts off with the basic cooking of sweet potatoes – steaming, roasting, boiling, pureed and fried. The only recipe I’ve tried so far is the fries. The author offers two recipes – the hard way and the easy way. I have to admit I took the easy way and the result was delicious! I know, all of these delicious recipes and the first thing I do is make fries! But I had some veggie burgers that I wanted something good with and these were perfect.

Next up, I’ll be making Sweet Potato Risotto. The book says that in this recipe, sweet potato puree flavors and lightens the risotto while keeping it saucy and reducing the amount of dairy traditionally used. Sounds great to me!

And how can I resist Grilled Sweet Potatoes with Garlic-Maple Glaze? And being a vegetarian, I have to try the Sweet Potato “Big Macs”.

There are so many of the breads and backed goods that I’ll be trying this winter, such as the sweet potato biscuits, maple pecan sticky buns and the cake donuts. Oh, and the sweet potato waffles!

But is the book finished with all of that? Of course not, there has to be dessert! And such desserts they are: Black-Bottom Sweet Potato Pudding Pie, Sweet Potato Ice Cream, Sweet Potato and Sherry Flan and Summer Fruit Cobbler.

There are quite a few recipes that contain meat which I won’t be making but there are plenty here for me to try. Some of the recipes are a little daunting with ingredients that I’m not familiar with or needing certain appliances that I don’t have. Also, not all of the recipes contain photos. But the photos that are included are gorgeous.

I know sweet potatoes will make their way to my table a lot more than they used to!

Recommended.

I was really excited to get this book from Blogging for Books. That my enthusiasm wasn't sustained was more a factor of the dietary restrictions in my household than that of the book. (Two people: one with an allergy to wheat, the other with an allergy to eggs, and has dietary restrictions to dairy, garlic, and onions. Cooking for us is a real treat, she lied.)

Anyhow, there are some delicious looking recipes in here, that, unfortunately, are off limits to us. Others also look great, but require either substitutions of ingredients, or trips to specialty stores. I think the weakest section is the one for main courses, because the sweet potato is usually an ingredient in the dish, not the focus. Nevertheless, I shall persist, and try to adapt some of these to fit our quirky needs.

Thank you to Blogging for Books and the publishers for sending a copy my way. ( )

There is a relatively new trend in single-subject cookbooks and I like it. I have thought of making my own – 365 days of cole slaw – just because I love cabbage so much. I love the brassicas. I also love sweet potatoes which made it very easy for me to love Sweet Potatoes by Mary-Frances Heck.

It begins with a primer on sweet potatoes, selecting, storing, cleaning, and recognizing the different types of sweet potatoes. The primer has a lovely coda, a list of complementary fruits, veggies, spices, herbs, nuts, and other things you can imagine pairing with sweet potatoes. The list is comprehensive and the suggestions sound excellent. Sadly, I did not see Jamaica Jerk spice blend or curry powder on this list, but there is a Thai Noodle Curry recipe. I think the lack of Jerked Sweet Potatoes is a missed opportunity.

The primer is followed by seven chapters starting with basic preparations of sweet potatoes, some of which, like the puree, are used in subsequent recipes. The remaining six chapters have recipes for starters, soups and stews, main dishes, side dishes, breads, and sweets.

I love that she included two ways to prepare sweet potato fries, the hard way, and the easy way. Put me down for the easy way!

Sweet Potatoes is an excellent single subject cookbook. There are about fifty recipes showing how versatile sweet potatoes are, providing the base for everything from appetizers to desserts. The recipes are realistic with the kinds of ingredients and skills of a home cook. This is a friendly, welcoming book for even beginner cooks. The only requisite is you love sweet potatoes and if you’re still reading this review, I presume you do.

The photos by Kristin Teig are appealing. I like that she avoids the seeds, nuts, flowers, and spillage all over the table style that is so dominant in today’s cookbook aesthetics. It’s not that she’s a neatnik. There’s a mix of casual and formal pictures. I like that the photos are cropped, sometimes chopping off half the dish. It makes for more striking, bolder photos. The sandwich loaf photo is not just a great food photo, it’s a great photo – period. My only criticism of the photos is that they seem oversaturated, too vibrant in color sometimes.

Sweet Potatoes was published in August by Clarkson Potter. I received a review copy through Blogging for Books.
