NOTES
Couple key points:
1. Be sure to buy a soft sweet potato and not a yam, most US stores call these Yams. Basically you are looking for a soft sweet potato with a copper skin and deep bright orange flesh. You can add a couple "real" yams in to increase the density of casserole.
2. Only use real vanilla extract (ie: sonoma syrup co)
3. Same with brown sugar; verify its a real and should have a dark molasse flavour.
