Why would a sweet potato still be somewhat hard after being cooked for one hour at 400 degress?

[Edit]
Oven at 500 F , foods cook at 200 F if wet with water

Sweet patatoes are cured at maybe 105 F , at very high humidity .

for weeks ...If not cured , and you try to cook S' P' or Yams ,

you get nothing .

Many foods lose water , then cooking temperature goes up

and starch converts ,,flavor comes out !
