A True Yam for African and Caribbean Cooking

Fresh African yam is a true yam from the Dioscorea family, not a sweet potato. Beneath its rough, bark-like skin is pale, starchy flesh with a mild flavor that works beautifully in savory dishes.

Flavor and Uses

  • Firm, starchy texture with a mild, earthy taste
  • Ideal for pounded yam, pepper soup, stews, and curries
  • Can be boiled, fried, roasted, grilled, or mashed
  • Pairs well with palm oil, spicy sauces, meat, fish, and vegetables

Preparation and Storage

Peel the yam, cut it into even pieces, and cook thoroughly before serving. Store whole, unwashed yam in a cool, dry, dark, well-ventilated place.

Available in 1 lb, 5 lb, and 25 lb options. Fresh yams naturally vary in size, shape, and appearance.
