I need to start with a word to the wise - this is not a dish that is fun to cook in the kitchen in the summer when you don't have air conditioning. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say about this recipe. It was extremely tasty and all of the ingredients worked so well together. After doing some reading, I found out there are different varieties of sweet potatoes and they don't have to be orange on the inside. This one was light yellow and not quite as sweet as a orange variety, but still rather flavorful. I think Eric would prefer this type so he got lucky this time. Finally, the downside to wanting to make this in the fall or winter is that corn won't be fresh, but I think it's a small tradeoff to not overheating in the kitchen.
