Sweet Potatoes/Yams

I like them baked, and add a pat of butter and s&p. I'm really not all that crazy about sweet casseroles with nutmeg, cinnamon, brown sugar, nuts, marshmallows. Give me some of that in a sweet potato pie for dessert - that's a whole different ballgame. I also like them mashed with turnips or rutabegas, and just recently tried them mashed with bananas. I love sweet potato fries!! I eat sweet potatoes/yams year round, and feel like I'm eating healthy. Do you like them as well? What are you favorite ways to eat them?

In a Yam Jam!

Need help on finding a TRUE candied yam. Every single year I try a new recipe to no avail because it is not "Candied" if anyone can understand what "candied yam" is Please tell me how to prepare a Candied Yam. Not baked, not roasted but something that almost has a clear glazed outside, tender inside and very yummy. It is almost like crystalized on the outside but they are an old fashioned way to prepare yams (I think).Thank in advance, for your help and Happy Thanks Giving!
