Tips:

  • Choose the right yams: Look for firm, unblemished yams that are about 1 pound each. Avoid yams that are soft or have bruises or cuts.
  • Peel and slice the yams evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the slices are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may not be tender.
  • Use a variety of apples: This will add different flavors and textures to the dish. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • Don't overcook the apples: They should be tender but still hold their shape. If they are overcooked, they will become mushy.
  • Season the dish to taste: This may include adding salt, pepper, nutmeg, or other spices. You can also add a bit of brown sugar or maple syrup for sweetness.
  • Serve the dish hot: This is when it will be at its best. You can top it with a dollop of sour cream or whipped cream, if desired.

Conclusion:

Scalloped yams and apples is a classic dish that is perfect for a fall or winter meal. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its sweet and savory flavors, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
