Yams with Lemon
People frequently confuse yams with sweet potatoes. They are actually different root vegetables. In this country the word yam is used to refer to the sweet potato, and not to any of the distinctively sharp-tasting root vegetables that people from the Caribbean or Africa know. This recipe calls for sweet potatoes.
