Yams are more natural and not hybridized as a regular potato.
Yam is:
- Low in Saturated Fat, Sodium
- High in Vitamin C, Fiber, Vitamin B6, Vitamin K, Potassium and Manganese
I have never had a chance to try them in Poland and I instantly fell in love with them in US.
As we know cooked starch becomes a sugar due to loosing it’s natural fiber.
But if you dehydrate them, you are keeping the fiber and nutrients.
Sunday – my snack day!
RECIPE :
- 3 big yams cut into halves, so I can send them through food processor and have shapes like the ones below :
For Marinade :
- olive oil
- water from soaked dried tomato
- 2 dry tomato
- sea salt, pepper, rosemary, dill
And of course you can manipulate this recipe as much as you like !
Because I had some marinade leftover, I cut the onion and bath her;-) in the remaining oil. Plus I added more pepper and some nutritional yeast.
Dehydrate for 8 hours.
TIP : To really nicely coat your yams with the marinade, you can use a square/rectangular dish and build up some layers. Glaze your marinade over each of your layer. You can the yams them sit for half an hour.
If you are interested in the outcome of my SUNDAY SNACK , please, visit in 10 hours, once the snack is ready and warm!
Cheers!
