OH. EM. GEE. Never have I EVER had salt and lemon juice in my candied yams until this evening. I came across your video and giiiiiiiiiiiiiirl 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 LAWD! These candied yams ARE 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 The scream I SCRUMPT when I did a taste test of the juice as the yams were cooking. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hey Stephanie hunny! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the recipe and I appreciate you for watching!! Thanks for sharing your feedback andI hope that you find another recipe here to enjoy!!
I made this recipe today and it tasted just like my Granny yams. I jumped for joy and my husband ate the whole pot of yams. Safe to say, these were a hit and thanks for sharing!!!!
Yes ma’am! This was the easiest, and tastiest way to make yams! I was able to make two batches for Thanksgiving within a hour & half and they got grandma’s stamp of approval!!
The Best hands down..I was looking for a recipe like how my mom use to cook hers and when I saw lemon I just knew this is definitely how my mom use to cook hers..They taste exactly how my mom's taste! Thank You
All hail the Queen of Yams! I’ve tried this recipe a few times now, and it keeps getting better and better. I’ve even experimented with a few twists, such as adding orange marmalade or apricot jam to the candy, and they turned out great. My baked-yam days are behind me; candied yams are my new go-to side dish. Thanks!
You are so amazing for this comment!!! Thank you so much and I’m so glad that you are enjoying the recipe along with your variations!!! Thank you sooooo much for watching ❤️❤️❤️
This recipe sounds delicious definitely gonna try it. I think my mom used some orange also (she passed away, so no passed down recipes). Did you use lemon and orange together?
I’ve tried this recipe and added my spin to it. It was awesome. I’ve always baked my yams, no more. Thank you for sharing your grandma’s recipe with us! We appreciate you!
Oh honey, I did this recipe for Thanksgiving dinner. Everyone loved them so much. I’m making these yams for Christmas dinner hike! Thank you soooo much!
found your video on tiktok and currently cooking for sunday dinner tonight and used this recipe IT SMELLS SO GOOD can’t wait to see the outcome! i’ll keep you updated thank you queen 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
I made your yams today and they were THE bomb! Absolutely delicious. My family raved about them. Many thanks to you sweet lady. Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful.
My mother and grandmother make them the same way. They are from Birmingham. The salt and lemon are a must for me as well. I don't eat others candied yams because I grew up eating them this way.
Just want to say I’m 29 and life has always lifed for me so there’s a lot I was never taught. Thank you for this. I made it last night and I’m feeding my kids today🤎 Thanks for including the measurements. You did this perfectly and they were great🤎🤎
Super simple instructions headed to the market to grab the supplies. Looking forward to making these with my eight year old daughter. Thanks for sharing ❤
I have always been rather proud of my yams , I never thought they were the, best, but yeah they were alright. But girl I tried this and you can't tellme nothing. The best part was I over seasees so I introduced candid yams to some friends there and I rocked their World. They loved them and so do I!!!!!Thank Thank Thank you for sharing!!!
When I say I hollered cause of how good these Candied Yams taste. And I used your Mac and Cheese recipe. Definitely a 10/10. I am soooo glad i found you and you have recipes that are good and I don't have to pay for them. Thank you huns 😊💕
thank you for sharing your recipe. I woke up on Thanksgiving morning with an oven not working. I only have to make the candy sweets. I looked up a stove top recipe and came across yours, I’m definitely going to try!! They look amazing and going by the comments they taste amazing thank you again happy holidays and I will let you know how they go with the family.
OMG, I love your cooking and I love to hear you talk, sooo cool. I love this recipe, cooking it tonight!!. Yep TGCC fo sho!!! Thanks for this video and many others.
Greetings! Thank you so much. I’m not using no can yams this year. I’m definitely implementing some of your ingredients when I’m making my stove top canned yams. Thank you.
Siiiiiis❤Your southern bell accent is such a lovely feel as I'm watching this oh so tasty dish! Blessings to you and I'm literally about to make this right NOW 😊❤ 🍠
I'm making some now from your recipe and watching your video. I doubled the recipe is all. They turned out fantastic just like my mama used to make them. Thank you for sharing.
I’ve made these three times since finding your recipe (to ensure the first time it turned out good wasn’t a fluke cuz my cooking is questionable sometimes) and they were good each time - couldn’t wait to make for thanksgiving this year. Happy Thanksgiving🎊🎊
I was not a believer 😮had to try bcuz my oven is OOO (out of order) & gurrrrrrl😋 I made the same 3 & the measurements were spot on!! Woke up @ 3 am to get another plate but they were M.I.A. You did it❤️. Thank you!
That was my problem too! I was putting raw sliced potatoes, sugar, butter, cinnamon, etc. in a foil pan, baking at 350 F for about 45 minutes to an hour. Now I know they must be cooked on the stove top. Got it!
So , I’m quite new to the cooking thing and trust me I’ve tried candied yams so many times and nothing seemed to work . I was hopeless even asking people didn’t help but I’ve come across this video and was like I need something a bit easier and I found YOU ! Lol had my man taste and he gave me a 8/10 which is better than the other votes lol so thank you for sharing this recipe ❗️♥️🤘🏽
Thank you for sharing this absolutely delicious recipe 🤗. I made it for the 1st time and it was PERFECTO!!! OMG!!! I will from now on make candied yams on the stovetop ❤❤❤
I know this is an old video, but I thank goodness I found it. I have always loved yams but could never get them like grannie's.... Until now! Girrrrrrl thank you!!!!! This right here is My new recipe now.
Darlin', I made this for the second time for a Labor Day BarBQue and received more accolades than the first time. I thoroughly LOVE this recipe, though I will admit to adding some cornstarch to thicken the sauce a little and both allspice and nutmeg(personal preference) I can't wait to try the Mac n Cheese!
I've watched a lot of candied yam recipes and most were cooked in the oven. I was looking for one that I could do on the stove because I've got a 12 pound ham going in my oven for 3 hours and some white potatoes, I don't have much room left for a pan of candied yams so I'll make your recipe on the stove top. It looks great, I think my Christmas dinner guests will love it.
Well I’m so glad that you found what you were looking for here and I appreciate you for giving my recipe a chance! I hope that you and your guest enjoyed it and Merry Christmas! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Okay watched this - doing it for thanksgiving! Will let you know how they turn out. I’m sure they are going to be amazing! Wondering why I bought marshmallows. My yams are boring every year. Excited to give this a try!
Ok I have watched this video, got the yams cooking! Now I’m on my way to watch the mac and cheese video (like I ain’t watched it 5 times already😂) Lol I get my whole dinner from you! Loveeee this channel!!
I am going to try. I never had lemon juice or salt. Let you know how it is once done. Thanks for sharing. This is the way I remember my mom cooking stove top.
