It's roasted in a way that causes the potato to get all sugary. Beats me what the process is. The result is a very sweet potato that's covered with caramelized sugar. It's pretty wonderful stuff.

Process is dead simple stuff.

STOVE TOP
Wash, wrap in foil (or leave naked) and place on a cast iron skillet
(affiliate link) covered
Cook on low heat for 60 minutes, turning them every 20 minutes
Turn heat off when you can pierce them with a chopstick and then let it
rest for 10 minutes before eating
Produces a super creamy cake-like texture much like baking it at 325 F
