The only way to quick-cook it successfully I know of is to slice it very thinly against the grain and stir-fry it. So the long cooking is to break down the toughness.<br /><br />Sweet potatoes? I always cook them in the skins just because it's so much easier to peel them cooked--the peel practically falls off, much less work than peeling them raw.<br /><br />I love these!
