Recipe Introduction
This recipe makes THE BEST yam casserole we've ever eaten. When I announced that I'd misplaced the recipe, my family stopped talking to me. Fortunately, I'd shared it with enough people that I could recover it.
List of Ingredients
� Two 2-lb 8oz cans of yams, drained, or 4 lbs. cooked, peeled fresh
� 2/3 cup orange juice
� 1 T grated orange rind
� 5 T. brandy or rum
� 2 t. salt
� freshly ground pepper to taste
� 1 t. ground ginger
� 4 T. butter, melted
� 1/3 c. light or golden brown sugar, packed
� 3 egg yolks
Recipe
1. Beat yams till smooth. Add rest of ingredients and beat till smooth.
2. Place in greased casserole and smooth top.
Praline topping:
� 2/3 cup light or golden brown sugar
� 1 stick butter, melted
� 1 c. chopped pecans
� 1 t. cinnamon
1. Mix and spread evenly over top of casserole.
2. Bake 350F for 45-50 min. till golden brown and bubbly.
Notes: Use a 12" shallow quiche dish. The night before, make sweet potato part. Recipe may be doubled or tripled, but do not make in a deeper dish or the ratio between potatoes and topping will be off.
A single recipe makes 8 to 12 servings, depending on the amount of other foods being served.
