Como fazer Old Fashioned Candied Yams
- In a 2-quart saucepan, combine 1 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the syrup thickens slightly.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and slice 3 pounds of sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
- Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer, cut-side up, in an ungreased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Pour the prepared syrup evenly over the sweet potatoes, ensuring all pieces are coated.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, basting every 15 minutes, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the syrup is bubbly and caramelized. If the syrup seems to be browning too quickly, loosely tent the dish with foil.
