To prepare, simply open the can and drain the syrup if desired, or use it as part of the flavor. The yams can be heated on the stovetop in a saucepan over medium heat until warmed through. Alternatively, they can be transferred to an oven-safe dish and heated in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes. For a richer flavor, you can add a touch of butter or brown sugar while heating.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike fresh sweet potatoes that require peeling and cutting, these are pre-prepared for immediate use. The light syrup provides a subtle sweetness and a different texture compared to raw or roasted yams. They offer a softer, more tender bite than most fresh preparations.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a quick and easy way to prepare a sweet potato side dish will find these convenient.
How to keep the rest
After opening the can, transfer any unused yams to a separate airtight container. Store the container in the refrigerator. It is best to consume the leftovers within 3-4 days for optimal freshness and quality.
