A couple of months ago, I posted here asking about storing sweetpotatoes and got several interesting suggestions. We ended up treatingthem like the regular potatoes, storing them clean and dry in old milkcrates, those plastic boxes with fairly open sides to allow aircirculation. They've been out in the laundry room, a room without aradiator tacked on the south side of the house. It's a bit chillierout there as the only heat is what drifts in from the rest of thehouse. We're in Maryland so it's fall here.The sweet potatoes are holding up perfectly. No spoilage or rotnoticed yet. My wife serves them regularly at dinner and they've kepttheir color, texture and flavor.Paul
