    A tip: mix all your dry ingredients- white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and combine them well. It will make the layering easier.

    I would just add a tablespoon of molasses. Up here in the north we use a lot of molasses so it could be added to the yams instead of dark brown sugar and would give it a depth of flavor that it could use.

    • @DivaInAApron
      @DivaInAApron  2 роки тому +1

      Hey luv thanks!! The total cooking time was about 25-30 minutes, but it depends on how many sweet potatoes and layers you have. As far as the amount of sugar, I used about 4 Cups of sugar, I usually don’t measure 😩.. but you will know when you have enough because the sweet potatoes will start to look very shiny and slick. But it’s always best to have more sugar than not enough, again thanks for watching! If you make them let me know how they turn out 🤗

    Why the use of cheap nasty bottled nutmeg and using the fresh as well? I don't use anything but fresh and have been using fresh for more than 10 years. Also those nutmeg balls will keep forever put in some sort of an airtight jar like even though small pickle jar or anything glass with a lid. They can't go bad when they are whole or even cut into. :-) just an FYI and a question

  • @elizabethshaw734
    @elizabethshaw734 3 роки тому +3

    No cinnamon for me and only fresh nutmeg and vanilla. They also need salt! Oh I just remembered I have some Ceylon cinnamon so I might use 1/4 teaspoon it is very different from the cinnamon you buy from McCormick or the dollar store. I got mine and slices like yours because whatever's leftover I make little yam Patty t a r t s. I use a muffin tin and then I add a custard and they are delicious!

    Those are NOT YAMS !! They are SWEET POTATOES !!! BIG DIFFERENCE !!!
    ARE SWEET POTATOES YAMS ?
    NO !!! they are NOT the same !!!
    Literally and botanically speaking, the two are not related !~
    What are Yams ?
    Yams are big tuberous roots that are a Monocot
    ( a plant having one embryonic seed leaf ) and belong to the genus Dioscorea.
    Yams are related to grasses and lilies, growing in tropical and subtropical countries that provide eight
    to ten months of warm weather to mature. Yams can grow two to three feet long and some can weigh as much as 80 pounds.According to horticulturist U. P. Hedrick, the word yam means “to eat” in the dialect of Guinea.
    What are Sweet Potatoes?
    Sweet potatoes are a Dicot ( a plant having two embryonic seed leaves ) and are from the Convolvulacea or Morning Glory family. In the United States today it is only possible to find Yams in some urban Hispanic markets.
    However in the U.S. , Sweet Potatoes have a relatively moist texture and orange-colored flesh. Compared to Sweet Potatoes, Yams are a lot more starchier and drier with a white to light yellowish colored flesh,
    whereas sweet potatoes are typically sweeter and only orange colored flesh.
    THE GREAT YAM SCAM:
    TYPES OF SWEET POTATOES
    Both the Yam and the Sweet Potato DO grow underground and have yellowish-orange flesh,
    but there is where the similarity ends.Yet the two became entwined in this country by household vernacular
    in part through the work of a publicity campaign. Earlier this century, sweet potato promoters attached the word Yam to the deep orange, moist-fleshed varieties of sweet potatoes and left the words sweet potato to the smaller, yellowish, and drier-fleshed varieties. Their Big Dumb Mistake ! Yams are Yams and Sweet Potatoes are Sweet Potatoes and they are NOT the Same type of Vegetable at all !! The two types are interchangeable in cooking, but bring different tastes, textures, and colors to your plate. Centennial and Puerto Rico are two popular moist-fleshed (formerly called Yam) varieties; Nemagold, New Jersey Orange, and Nugget have the lighter and drier (sweet potato) flesh.Today it is common to find either or both words used in supermarkets,
    although sweet potato promoters wish we would all stop saying Yam. The North Carolina Sweet Potato Commission currently urges the world to spell “sweetpotato” as one word.
    But it’s an uphill battle. If your Mama called them yams, for certain you will, too. But they are NOT Yams, they are SweetPotatoes if the flesh is of a deep orange color . And Somebody PLEASE Tell Bruce that those Canned Candied SweetPotatoes sold in grocery Stores in those large size cans during the holidays are NOT YAMS !!! They are SWEET POTATOES !!!!
