[QUOTE=matereater;746707]Never heard of curing sweet potatoes, whats the purposeUOTE]

You need to cure for at least two weeks to a month before eating so they will get sweet.
They have starch in them that turns to sugar.
Even a regular potato will get sweet in time.

If you buy and store your sweet potatoes now for the holidays they will be better depending on when they were harvested.
