High heat not always good.

Do. Not. Evar. bake something with sugar in it at too high a temp (250C) for too long. I did some sweet potatoes mixed with olive oil, sugar, balsamic vinegar, cinnamon, nutmeg.

When I did it before (180-200 for 25 mins 1in cubes), it was great, texture just nice. Tonight (too much in a hurry coz of guests, so i turned up the heat), the high heat caramelized the sugar, turned it black and chewy/hard. Still edible, but much better on Thursday.
