Starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes need high heat to soften. With sous vide you get tender, creamy sweet potatoes from edge to interior. We season these sweet potatoes simply with herbs, but use this recipe as a springboard for new creations; shaved parmesan, sunflower seeds, or tahini would also make great toppings.
