INSTRUCTIONS
While grating sweet potatoes, bring to a slow boil 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon,
ground nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and cloves in 1 cup of water. (Add
cinnamon sticks for additional cinnamon flavor.) Put the sweet potatoes
into a large mixing bowl. Just before removing the pot of spices from the
stove, add butter or margarine, Karo syrup, brown sugar, and salt. Stir
while the butter melts. Remove the cinnamon sticks. Pour this mixture over
the grated sweet potatoes. Blend well together. Put in a well-buttered
casserole dish and place in a preheated 350 degrees oven. (At this point
start another cup of water and spices on the stove top, keeping them ready
to add as needed, and the whole house Christmasy smelling!)

NOTES : The ingredients below are given in approximate quantities, for this
is a recipe that must be doctored up along the way. When the pudding has
cooked for about 30 minutes, you will have to stir it around to add a
little more water, and lick the spoon. At this point decide what extra
spices are needed and add them. You may add more Karo syrup or butter as
well as spices. Repeat as often as you wish. Generally it takes about an
hour and a half for the pudding to bake thoroughly and bubble up.
