PICKANINNY CREOLE  

“Cut boiled sweet potatoes in halves lengthwise and arrange in a shallow pan. Cover with plenty of butter and brown sugar. Add a dash of mace, a sprinkle of salt and the grated rind of an orange. Bake in a moderate oven (350°F.) until the sugar and butter have formed a thick syrup, 30 to 45 minutes.”
