  • This video covers the Jamaican Yellow Yam, Health Benefits and recipes.
    Yellow yam comes from a starchy vegetables, which stretches up to 2 meters long. Yellow yams are similar to sweet potatoes; however, while Yams and sweet potatoes are often used interchangeably in grocery stores, they are two different starchy vegetables that supplies different nutrients. The sweet potato is related to the morning glory family. Sweet potatoes have orange flesh but can also be white, yellow or purple and should not be confused with yams. Yams are closely related to the Lily and grass family, and vary in colour from ivory, white, yellow and purple. Yams are mostly long and cylindrical with a rough and sometimes scaly texture. There is a distinct difference between the two tubers. Yams are larger in size and have a thicker skin. They vary in size, from that of a small potato to a record 130 pounds where sweet potatoes are relatively small in size and have a much thinner peel.

    Tell Jamaica to start canning the yellow yam as we here in UK find it difficult to get at grocery stores. Or they can dry freeze and import this product so it is available all the time. Canned breadfruit, where is the canned yam come on Jamaica. Start a new business .

    Yellow yam is not a vegetable, it is full of starch and people need to be careful how much they consume. Just like other ground provisions that full of starch, cassava, Irish potato, dasheen they are full of start. Wash it when you peel and cut thin to get rid of some of the starch.
