Interesting!! I bet this is yummy!

Bump for later.

Don't forget your microwave. My husband and I split a yam done in the microwave. Easy, delicious, and healthy. I found this cooking method on line, and it works like a charm:

One yam, washed and left damp

Wrap in damp paper towel. Microwave on high for seven minutes. Comes out perfectly!
