Start by peeling the sweet potatoes and then use a vegetable peeler or knife to create long noodles. You can leave the skin on if you like, but it does make the noodles a bit harder to thaw. Next, rinse the noodles under cold water to remove any excess starch and drain. Finally, spread the noodles on a baking sheet in the freezer until they are frozen completely, about 30 minutes.

How to freeze sweet potato slices?

We recommend freezing sweet potato slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Once your sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them, cut them into even slices, and place them on the baking sheet. You can add a little more room in between each layer to help your slices keep their shape. You can also add an ice bath to the baking sheet to make the freezing process a little more efficient. When the sweet potatoes are frozen, transfer them to an airtight container.
