1 Eat small meals frequently. 2  If you feel sick to your stomach between meals, try to eat 6 to 8 small meals during the day and a snack at bedtime. 3  Eat food cold or at room temperature, not hot, to reduce its smell and taste. 4  Don't eat in a warm room. 5  The air may seem stuffy and stale and may make your stomach feel worse.
Speaking as someone who's had to prep ahead two garbage barrels of sweet potatoes for a giant gumbo event: If you're just peeling them a few hours ahead, then just hold them whereever.Unlike russet potatoes, sweet potatoes (especially garnet yams) do not turn brown or lose texture on exposure to air.If you're going to be holding them for a couple days, then drop them in cold water and refrigerate it.f you're just peeling them a few hours ahead, then just hold them whereever.

Please trust me on this. (There's also a tan-skinned variety of sweet potato with white flesh, but I haven't tried making this recipe with those.) Cut off both ends of the sweet potato and use a sharp vegetable peeler to peel off the skin. (Thanks to my brother Dave and sister-in-law Amy who gave me this Cutco vegetable peeler that I love!) Then cut the sweet potato in half lengthwise and again in half crosswise, so you have four pieces.
