This invention discloses a sweet potato
roasting device and method that prevents
cracking and cross-
contamination, belonging to the field of sweet potato
roasting. The device includes a shell and two sets of chains rotatably connected inside the shell, with multiple sweet potato racks positioned between the chains. Each rack includes two fan-shaped plates connected to the two chains, with a thin support wire connecting the two plates and reinforcing wires on the support wire. Multiple sets of side heating wires are disposed inside the shell. A cover plate is rotatably positioned on top of the shell. This invention solves the problem of
cracking and juice leakage by employing a stepped
temperature control method of first low-temperature saccharification and
dehydration, followed by high-temperature
caramelization, ensuring a stable release of steam from the sweet potato and maintaining its
intact skin. Simultaneously, it avoids cross-
contamination, effectively preventing juice from contaminating the
skin of other sweet potatoes, ensuring the cleanliness and appearance of the sweet potatoes, reducing reliance on manual labor, and facilitating standardized operation.
