How to Make Balsamic Roasted Yams

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large skillet, combine 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes, or until the mixture slightly thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
4. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and 1/4 teaspoon salt until the butter is melted and incorporated into the balsamic glaze.
5. Add 2 pounds of peeled and cubed yams to the skillet. Toss gently to coat the yams evenly with the balsamic glaze. Season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
6. Spread the yams in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.
7. Roast for 40 minutes, or until the yams are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
