Stone roasting is a time-honored way to enjoy the full flavor of Orange Kalim-aw Sweet Potato. This method brings out the natural sweetness and keeps the inside perfectly tender.
How It’s Done
Sweet potatoes are placed directly on hot stones or a clay grill and slowly roasted over a gentle fire. The skin becomes slightly charred, while the inside turns soft and caramelized.
Why Stone Roasting?
This technique locks in moisture and enhances the kamote’s flavor. It’s a favorite among those who grew up with traditional Filipino merienda.
Try It at Home
If you don’t have a clay grill, you can achieve a similar result by roasting sweet potatoes in your oven at a low temperature. Wrap them in foil to keep them moist.
Conclusion
Stone roasted Orange Kalim-aw Sweet Potato is a taste of tradition and comfort. Give it a try and experience kamote the way it’s enjoyed in the provinces.
