I know it’s my own ignorance but sweet potato pastry sounds mid as hell. It’s probably great. Sweet potato pie is popular in some parts of the US now that I think about it
i was never into sweet potatoes as much as regular potatoes but must be nice that there'd be stands/kiosk where you can get them freshly roasted and such
I mean even if you don't do a culinary arts school i think you'd still learn the basics in JP high school but a cooking date or just together with other friends as a hobby would be fun
