[@oliviacharles2508]

I just followed this recipe and these sweet potatoes are AMAZING! Thanks so much for this 😊

[@domimyers5257]

This is one of My heavenly comfort food. Is there anyone who doesn’t like this?!?! 😋 and it’s good for you in every way. ❤️

[@JenniferMyers]

It's something I look forward to consuming! Being excited to feed oneself is very important for health. We must please not only our bodies but our palates, too. Satisfying the palate is comforting to the body, mind, and soul. It is true soul food

[@kevinwilson3337]

⁠@@JenniferMyersthese Japanese sweet potatoes gave my skin a healthy youthful look . You’re absolutely right about these being great for skin health.

I'd enjoy a video of you explaining your daily routine such as when you fast, break your fast, meals per day, workouts and such.

[@midnytbluee]

This this my favorite specially in the winter. Its even better with kimchi.

[@MelissaPons]

I have been cooking sweet potato in many ways but I've just tried this method and it's definitely the better I've tasted, even if no other ingredients at all have been added. Thank you for sharing!

[@blue3374]

Plz don’t ever stop uploading videos and giving us these wonderful tips 😭💖
I’ve already implemented a lot of them into my own routine & life~ you’re the best!

[@t0nibear]

Love goguma! Never thought to cook in on the broil setting. That sounds delicious!

[@roxslide]

I just randomly found your channel today and it's super cool to find another half korean like me. Goguma is my favorite too, I love it so much that my family always buys me goguma cake on my birthday.

[@pamelar4224]

My new favorite channel!! Binge watching all your other videos! Your approach to health, wellness, and beauty is very much (if not identical!) to my own. Very excited to try the kimchi recipe and trying to muster the courage to incorporate liver into my diet. 😁

[@JenniferMyers]

They’re so yummy!

You can get them at Trader Joe’s

[@reemagee4828]

Brought these for the 1st time today while at my local Hmart. I was looking to add sweet potatoes to my growing vegetarian diet. Had no idea it was great for skin too. Win, win. I will definitely try them with kimchi ❤

[@Zbee167]

Cool! Thanks for sharing.

[@KombuchaBabe]

I couldnt find the purple ones locally but I tried this method with yams and they came out absolutely perfect !

[@dead2675]

Wow what a coincidence my mom just bought some sweet potatoes and we ate it and you upload this video.

[@tiffany8154]

My fave potatoes!

[@modernabsurdity]

This looks so good! Do you have particular method to reheat if you refrigerate/freeze them? These would be great to meal prep in advance for breakfast or lunch.

[@Maplecook]

Soooooo good!

[@Ana-ls8rh]

These are my favorite sweet potatoes. I also like the other kind of Japanese sweet potato with the purple flesh.

[@JenniferMyers]

Yes! I love them, too!

[@arh1701]

Could you also let me know if retino does anything with the pores ? Any suggestions for pores?

[@CamberHill]

very nice presentation. thank you

[@morgxx7]

I’ve never used the broiling setting, do you choose a temperature like baking? If so, what did you set it to?

[@0000AT]

Does the purple sweet potato (the one that’s purple inside and out) have the same benefits as this one?

[@NerdNest0]

These are delicious and my go to comfort food especially during the winter time and you can cheaply get a whole bag at a Trader Joe’s.

[@walkingbyfaith5504]

I have a question about Retin A. I started last night for first time with 0.05 , a pea size, I didn't feel any sensation, burning, tightening, redness. Nothing, like putting a normal beauty product, is this normal or should I try 0.1 % ?

[@abisunza7059]

i really wish i had time to cook good, nutritious food like you do but I have my studies and school to attend to. But may I ask what your schedule is or what do you typically do in a day? I’d really like to know how you end up making time for making your wonderful meals.

[@sacredjasmine]

Hi Jennifer! Just wanted to clarify if you poked holes prior to broiling? Thank so much!

[@marthaayalew2505]

Hi jen 🤗 i grew up eating the japanease sweet potato. I boil mine and sometimes bake it.
I read somewhere boiling it helps retain most nutrient rather than bake it. I love it both ways tho.
Btw, I tried the purple one and it was nice but this one is my fav😊

Thank you for sharing your knowledge! I’m wondering, doesn’t exposing a vegetable to such high heat for such a prolonged period destroy an excessive amount of the phytonutrients? I thought steaming is best? Maybe not as tasty though 😋

[@mahatmagandhi7395]

Really wonderful & healthy 😍🎋
Enjoyed your times dear friend !!! stay blessed !!! 346🌷

[@tangomango5360]

Goguma & Kimchi are the perfect match 😋 (never tried broiling)

I love Japanese sweet potatoes, and I will try broiling them per your mommy!

[@alinavarghese2074]

They look so good and I always see them on Instagram but how would I make these without a broiler??

Hi Jennifer! Do you eat the skin as well? I need to try to find these in my grocery store, if possible. Thanks for sharing

[@reikohata1449]

Im sooo hungry now!! Can I freeze them with skin or better to just put it in the fridge? If you can advise the best way to store. Cant wait to try it out~ Thanks!!

[@monisolaelliott9346]

I eat Japanese sweet potatoes at lest 3 times a week. Best variety in my opinion

[@choicemin2100]

Hi, I've been figuring out how to do this for so long but I don't know how to broil in an oven (I mean I never try 'broiling' something). Could you tell me what is the temperature for the broiler? Can I bake it in the oven instead, and could you suggest me the way to bake them (eg. temperature & time)
I can't express how much I like your videos, it's relaxing. I learn a lot from you❤️ and what a coincidence! I have a classmate that look so much alike you, also, she has freckles/birthmark on the face like you. I don't know if it's appropriate to point her out.
Anyway, really grateful if you scan through this comment and leave a reply, have a wonderful day ❤️

Happy New year 🌹✨ I want to start practicing yoga, do you have any tips for a beginner? ☺️💖❤️

[@amoswhitwam2691]

Keep coming back to this video because we love this recipe for making these sweet potatoes.
We typically end up doing a custom broil with these at 425-450 rather than 500. Flipping at 30min mark then finished for 25min.
They do well in the fridge for next days too.

[@fayelis]

will 425-450 prevent potato from having burnt skin while inside is still soft?

[@mommmacelly5207]

what type of oil do you use for your skin ?

[@glamrgrl30]

Looks delicious! Unfortunately I do not trust my oven in a broiler setting. I have ditched regular potatoes upon discovering JSP. I buy them from Whole Foods and bake them. They are DELICIOUS. I'm wondering if they lose their nutritional value by bring broiled for a long time?

[@ellekay1721]

D o you eat the skins or add anything to them? Can you just use regular yams?

[@MiMi-wg4jk]

I think we dont have a broil setting on our oven :(

[@adelina4744]

Do you soak the sweet potatoes in water before you roast them? In my experience, you have to so that with the western-style variety.

[@diamonddre4626]

Your voice gives me joy! Show your face next time. Great energy!

Happy 2020

[@salma-bi3eu]

Can u please make a video about your skin care , cuz ur skin is heelllaa beautiful and healthy!

[@plume1639]

Did you pierce them before broiling them? I’m wondering if that affects the flavor and texture.
Which yoga do you do?

[@JenniferMyers]

No piercing! I asked my mother and she firmly replied, “no!” Lol what mommy says, goes! The type of yoga I practice is Kripalu vinyasa. I went to school there and studied yoga intensively. That is my daily practice!

[@plume1639]

Lol! Yes, MAM to the no piercing!

[@beejo6696]

Is this broiled on high or low? Do you eat the peel?

[@trhl1155]

Hi. What temp should I put on the broiler? I didn’t hear you mention the temperature anywhere in the video. Otherwise a good video.

[@RapinChu954]

The video mentioned the temperature at 500° degrees.(3:19)

[@richguev]

How many times a week do you eat sweet potatoes?

[@MichelleFelt]

Hello ☺️ Using the broiler, do you move the rack to the lowest position to avoid smoking/burning because the length of time is so long?

I was wondering if you could do a video explaining why you do intermittent fasting and the benefits behind it? I’ve been doing it on and off, but have been mostly consistent, for 5 months now and lost a substantial amount of weight. I used to have a binge eating disorder, but now I only eat when I’m hungry which isn’t very often. I’ve noticed a lot of downsides too, mainly feeling malnourished and having low energy. My stomach has become very sensitive too. This could also have to do with the fact that I’m a vegetarian so perhaps I’m not getting the proper vitamins and nutrients. Lately I’ve gone back to eating more consistently throughout the day, but I also love to just drink green tea in the mornings which helps a lot. I’m only 18 and have a lot to learn so I would love to here your insight on this topic.

[@lizajohan7708]

Hi Jennifer! Thanks for sharing, as always :) may I know, what do you snack on, or do you snack at all?

[@JenniferMyers]

I don't snack. I eat abundantly when I eat (I practice fasting and feasting)!!!

[@lizajohan7708]

@@JenniferMyers ah I see.. Thank you! You're inspiring me to change my eating habits. I love to snack on processed and sugary foods (crackers dunked in hot chocolate!) but I can tell my body is not loving it. Feasting and fasting - I will definitely try that! :)

[@JenniferMyers]

@@lizajohan7708 It has really helped me in every way. I am no longer preoccupied with food. In this practice, I'm able to listen to my body's natural hunger signals and when it's time for me to eat, I EAT. And I eat until I'm fully satisfied (I enjoy eating and I fulfill my senses and my stomach)! I really love this lifestyle.

[@cateivy9747]

What's the difference in yours and regular sweet potatoes, where do you find them

[@JenniferMyers]

These can be found at many grocery stores like Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and chain grocers like Fresh Thyme Market. I’ve seen them at smaller local stores, too. Asian grocery will always have them!

[@JenniferMyers]

Also the difference between regular orange yams and these are that Japanese sweet potatoes are higher starch and taste sweeter; the flavor is completely different. They’re my favorite kind of sweet potato! It’s like nature’s candy.
