Anise Pecan Yams
These yams pack quite a punch. Sambuca gives this dish a sweet herbal edge with the essence of licorice.
Ingredients
  • 5 lbs. yams, washed, peeled, cut into 1-inch chunks

  • 1/3 Cup Sambuca

  • 1/2 Cup chopped pecans

Steps
  • Place yams in a large stockpot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain yams of water and transfer to a large bowl.

  • Preheat oven to 350F (175C).

  • Mash yams until smooth. Stir in Sambuca and pecans until blended.

    Place in 1-quart casserole dish.

  • Cover and bake for 10 minutes until warm.

  • Spoon into serving dish. Store covered in the refrigerator.
