GREAT-GRANDMA'S CANDIED YAMS
This is my great-grandma's candied yams recipe. I started making them a few years ago, now everyone asks for them every year. The secret I think is in the orange juice and slow cooking.

CHEF JOHN'S CANDIED YAMS
Sure, everyone knows orange-fleshed sweet potatoes aren't really yams, but it makes for a shorter name. I'm not a huge sweet side dish person, but I make an exception for these candied yams that use lemon instead of orange juice as a sweetener.

YAMS IN ORANGE SHELLS
This recipe has been in my files for over 15 years, & I find it a nice variation to a yam side dish. Originally I smoothly pureed the yams, preserves & butter in a food processor, but more recently I just mash them & am not concerned about any small lumps!

CANDIED YAMS
Sweet enough for dessert but savory enough for a side, candied yams are a quintessential Southern staple for Sunday dinner, get-togethers or holidays. Many supermarkets use the terms "sweet potatoes" and "yams" interchangeably. For this recipe, any orange-fleshed varieties like Jewel or Garnet will do. Whatever you use, this dish will definitely round out anything savory on your plate, on Thanksgiving and beyond.

- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wash and peel the yams, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer the yams to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.

- Once the butter is melted, add both sugars along with the maple syrup, orange zest, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Turn off the heat and remove the pot from burner. Stir to combine, then add the vanilla extract. Pour the sugar-butter mixture over the yams, and toss to coat.
