Only regret is not making enough, dish scraped empty. We are a Mexican, Puerto Rican family, my mom is a great cook and she gave me the biggest compliment.

    I make mine in the oven every single year and have never not had candied sweet potatoes or candied yams. I use the same recipe, the main thing you don't want to do is to use too much water as they make their own. As long as you layer your Potatoes and your sugar's and stir in your vanilla & spices, then add a block of butter to the top, you'll never be boiling your potatoes in the oven. Once they are done, I then add the mini marshmallows on top and put them under the broiler until they have actually browned, just as you would when making S'mores. Unfortunately most people use too much water or leave the juice in the canned variety and this is what causes the potatoes to boil. If you have no water in them it's impossible to boil them in the oven. You can also use your oven in the air setting and they also turn out better than any on the stove top.

      So there will be alot of liquid. It will thicken up at some point. But if you are serving it right away once you melt the marshmallows take a big spoon full out and begin scooping the juice out. Thank you for watching.

      Why boil out the flavor??? At that point you might as well go buy canned sweet potatoes. Plus they candy up better from raw. We have to move on from the ways we were taught with some things.

      In the United States, the terms “yam” and “sweet potato” are used interchangeably, but they are completely different vegetables. Yams are starchy and have a rough, brown exterior. They can grow up to 45 feet long and are eaten in parts of Latin America, West Africa, the Caribbean, and Asia. Sweet potatoes are a New World root vegetable, have a softer, reddish skin, a creamier interior, and often, a darker interior. Most American supermarkets are selling you sweet potatoes, not yams
