I received some Narutokintoki sweet potatoes, but since I don't really like sweet potatoes, I made yokan, which is my son's favorite.
It's easy and tasty, so I posted it here.

Sweet potatoes with lots of moisture are not suitable for this recipe.
Blend the hot sweet potatoes in a food processor, or else they won't be smooth enough.
Use any kind of sugar. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
Use a plastic container or a lunch box instead of a mold. For 10×15 cm [5.9 in] mold. Recipe by Mugi no tomo

Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them. Soak in water. Measure the sugar and salt.
2

Steam or microwave the sweet potatoes until a bamboo skewer passes through easily.

Place them in a food processor with the sugar and salt.
4

Blend until smooth.
5

Pour the mixture into a mold dampened with water. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and press with a card or board to level. (The amount shown in the photo is a doubled recipe.)

It's best to have another mold to use to press to level.

Once it has cooled down slightly, store it in the fridge.
