- How to store fresh yam for as long as you wish.
This 'how to video' is for yam lovers just like me, who would like to eat yam all year round (meaning, throughout the year) without any worry that it would get spoilt. The best temperature to store raw yam is said to be between 12-16ºC, which is clearly lower than the average room temperature of 21ºC.
Like other vegetables, yam tuber is seasonal and perishable (that is, it is liable to decay or spoil or go bad quite quickly). Additionally, yam can be very expensive when it is not in season.
So, this video will solve a few problems:
1 Saves you some money
2 Allows you to continue to eat yam all year round
3 Prevents your yam from going bad
4 Keeps your uncooked yam fresh forever
I Hope you find this video helpful.

I stored my yam the same way. However, your circular peeling style is highly appreciated from the regular lengthy style.
Thank you so much 😊
For those outside the country, especially. I do it all the time, it can last for months in the freezer
Does the texture change when you need to use it?
@@igbo_girlI tried this without straining, drying or pre freezing my yam. It came out tasting funny. I'd like to do it again following your steps.
This is so commonsensical. Thanks for this valuable insight. Extremely useful. No more wastage. No more spoilage. 👍
Mannie Sweetie Thank you for your lovely comment. Thanks for watching.
Thanks sweety l am Haïtian we love yams and it is good to know that i préserve them in the freezer
Yes this is what I do, and also put a little vinegar into the water when washing the yam 🍠
Malt vinegar or white vinegar. I only have malt (Brown colour)
sheena lynn I always used the white vinegar !!!! but try what you have and see how it works.
Yes the vinegar help from brown. The vinegar n lime or lemon juice
Thanks for showing such an easy way to preserve yams.
Geneveive Cuff Thanks for watching.

Glad you found the video helpful. Thank you for watching.
Lesson learn, Never seen yam so neatly peel I never like peeling yam because its itches and cuse scars on my hand. I only like the white soft yams for boiling and the yellow for roasting, this new learn circle cut with a gloved on hand I will be cooking yam on my own and preserve what I can't eat.
Great! Thank you for watching.
Thanks sis. My mom taught me this back in the days. I put everything in the freezer, garri, raw beans, elubo, flour and all. It preserves well. Thanks again.

Thank you so much for this video. I have been wondering how to preserve the raw food when there is a glut of them at cheap prices. Please tell me what alternative to parchment paper l could use. Thank a million
Thanks for sharing this video with others. It's interesting
Thanks
You can use a silicon cooking mat.. the purpose of the parchment paper is so the yam doesn’t stick when you put it in the freezer.
@@mabes861 thanks

Love the music...looks yummy. I eat a lot of the red yams and sweet potatoes.
😲😲😲They got red yams!!!!! WoW never seen that before!!! Amazing
Eraina Smith Red yams are not actually yams at all. Though labeled as such, they are all sweet potatoes. Merchants made up the yam/sweet potato ad to increase sales early in the 20th century. They are all varieties of sweet potatoes. Actual yams are what was shown in this video. Some varieties from the Caribbean have a more yellow look inside but are still the tree root looking yam.

They allow you enter with your yams with no questions? I’ll ask my mom to get some when coming.

That is if you are living in a country where their light quencheth not.
You're right!
You are so right, Lol
Lol but the good thing about such country is that yam is quite cheap there unlike paying about $20 for a tuber 😂 😂
@@summersprings8767 $20 for a tuber, that is outrageous! !!
@@favourchinwendualabi8586 sadly, it's true. Yam is expensive commodity outside,Nigeria, especially in Europe and America.

Janet Cousins Thank you 😊
Thanks so much. Because you helped me with my Home Economics project
Great! Thanks for watching.
Just a few drops of lemon or lime will keep the black spots off pretty much all your root food that will turn dark quickly.
What do you do squeeze the lime into the water?
Looks delicious. Thanks for sharing your video and great storage and how to eat the yam demonstration!! Thanks Arlene (Miami)
I am glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching.
i've done everything including this way and the yam just never stay,so my nephew says to cook the yam and place in the freezer in the same water that was used to cook it,When ready to use just pour it in the pot with water and all just don't overcook if you're cooking other foods too,put yam in last so it will be just nice,yes it works perfect!
I just cut peel wash then put in Ziploc bag and from the freezer to the pot and it works perfectly 👍
The method works perfectly for me, I freeze and always cooks from freezer to a pot of boiling water. However there are many other methods that can also be used. I'm glad you found what works best for you. Thank you for watching.
Thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks for watching.
Going to try like the freezing always want to know
Put the whole tuber in the fridge and you’re good. That’s what I’ve started doing. Saves time cutting up on yam to put in the freezer.
It still spoils
Good information thanks to u.for this
So nice of you. Thank you for watching.
Can we blanch yam before freezing it, so as to keep its properties intact for a longer time interval in the freezer?
I needed this and appreciates the content! New sub 👍🏾
Awesome! Thank you!
@@YummieliciouzFoodRecipes You're welcome!
Thanks for the yam preserve
Thanks for watching.
Thanx my dear Clear Consise n simple I'm sure we could also use this for Plaintain Green Bananas eh?
Yes, you can. Thank you for watching.
I am going to do this right now. I didn't know about this.

Very informative and good visual presentation.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Thanks for watching.
Madassi to you my sister. Try to avoid starchy food, starch is not natural, it is a byproduct of hybrid foods. Accumulation of starch in the African body produces to much mucus, which causes all types of medical conditions. From diabetes to stroke.
I really like your videos. I have learned a lot from these. ❤
Hi Cynthia, thanks for your lovely comment. Thanks for watching 😊.
@@YummieliciouzFoodRecipes many continued blessings. I watch your videos from New York City. 🙂
@@cynthiakozikowski1765 Awesome. Thanks 😃
Great idea. Thanks for this video
Thanks for watching!
I do that anyway, you can do it with other provision. Try green banana . Not plantain.
Girl you saved me I was just about to thaw
Thanks for sharing, very educative. May I know why the color of the yam changes after it’s kept in the freezer. Sometimes it changes to brownish color. Pls explain why and how we can avoid that. Thanks
Its colour tends to change due to the type yam or how good the yam is. Thanks
Exposure to the air/oxygen.
Even white potatoes do that, it's just exposure to oxygen. That's why you have to put yams/potatoes to sit in a bowl water as soon as you've cut and peeled them, to prevent the oxidisation (when they start to get that brownish/greyiah colour). Once you're done cutting and peeling, simply rinse them, drain the water and then use them however you want.
@@maxinesaltking7188 Excellent! I learnt from your explanation. Can yams that are intended to be used for frying be preserved this way too?
Thanks I've learned something big up 👍
Thank you 😊
Thanks for this tips
You're most welcome. Thanks for watching 😃
Thanks n God bless u.
Amen. Thank you.
Can I do this process with other ground provisions like dasheen, cassava, sweet potatoes etc?
Thanks for sharing this was awesome

You just got a new follower 👍👍
Dee Victor Thank you for watching 😀
Very good idea love it I think that I will save a lot of money thaanks a lot God Bless have a nice day 🥰😋😅.
Thank you 😊
I boiled my yam 🍠 bag it and freeze..Steam or microwave whenever I need it than voila.
Thanks for this useful video!
Thank you and thanks for watching 😊
Thank you for this video but I would want to know the essence of pre freezing for 2hrs since it's going to be stored in the freezer. Thank you
Hi, this is to prevent the yam slices or cubes from sticking together. Thank you for watching 😃
I dont pre-freeze the yam, I freeze straightaway, and it comes apart easily to cook from frozen.
Nice video.
Thanks Hereigns, I have never pre freezed too and it has always been good. I take it straight to the pot and after a few minutes of boiling everything falls apart on its own
I was going to ask too because I just put it straight into the freezer after straining water from the yam and have no issue whatsoever. I could try this though hope I don't forget it in the freezer sha😃😃
@@funmidina4983 lol.....same here!!.. ..I cant guarantee that I wont forget it either
nice one. thanks for that

Lovelynotuadimma Lovelynotuadimma Thank you for subscribing 😀
Gr8 idea. But i am curious. Why pre-freeze? Why not prepare and freeze straight away? What is the purpose of the pre-freeze stage?
My thought
Pre-freezing the yam cubes or slices prevents the yam from sticking together. It can be very difficult to separate frozen yam, especially if your are cooking just some of the frozen yam. The yam is no more fresh once cooked. Thanks for watching.
Your page is really educative
Thank you for your comment. Very encouraging. 😃
