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.

Steps:
- Stir salt into 2 quarts cold water in a large pot. Transfer sweet potato pieces to pot and place over high heat; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are not quite tender but still cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Use the tip of a knife to test for doneness. Drain.
- Place brown sugar, butter, lemon juice, maple syrup, ginger, cinnamon, cayenne, and pinch of salt in a skillet. Place over medium-high heat, stirring until glaze ingredients melt and start bubbling. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to thicken up, 4 to 6 minutes.
- Transfer drained sweet potatoes to skillet. Raise heat to high and cook and stir until potatoes are coated with glaze and very tender, and glaze has thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to serving dish; garnish with chopped nuts.

Steps:
- 1. In mixing bowl, with mixer, beat yams or sweet potatoes until smooth. Mix in remaining yam casserole ingredients, beating until mixture is light and fluffy. Butter a 12 inch porcelain quiche dish or a shallow 2 quart casserole (7 x 11 inches). Pour in yam mixture, smoothing top evenly. Make praline topping by mixing all ingredients together in small bowl. Spread evenly over yams. May be refrigerated covered overnight at this point. Bake at 350 for 45 to 50 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes before serving. Serves 10 to 12 Notes from the cookbook: The most sensational yam casserole I ever had was served to me one Thanksgiving by Alan and Barbara Shefter in Washington, D.C. Thanks to the Shefters, my family, friends and classes have been loving it ever since. The yams are fluffy and creamy, and the praline topping is sweet, nutty, crunchy, and beautifully glazed. If you want more of this delectable casserole, double the recipe but make it in two separate casseroles so that the proportions of the filling to the topping remains correct. Sweet potatoes can be used instead of yams. Source: Marlene Sorosky's Year round Holiday Cookbook
