GREAT-GRANDMA'S CANDIED YAMS
This is my great-grandma's candied yams recipe. I started making them a few years ago, now everyone asks for them every year. The secret I think is in the orange juice and slow cooking.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add yams and boil for 10 minutes. Drain and rinse twice with cold water. Soak in cold water for 15 minutes.
- While yams are soaking, preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
- Mix white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a small bowl.
- Peel and cut yams into chunks and place in a large baking dish. Dot with butter and sprinkle with sugar mixture so all yams are coated. Carefully pour enough orange juice into the bottom of baking dish to measure 1/2 inch.
- Bake in the preheated oven, basting often, until yams are tender and the liquid is thick and sticky, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Sprinkle with mini marshmallows. Turn on the oven's broiler. Broil until marshmallows are melted and toasty, about 5 minutes.

HOLIDAY SUNSHINE YAMS
My mom has been making this recipe my whole life...I'm almost 23. It is my favorite thing to eat on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Now that I'm older, I have been making it the past couple of years. It is absolutely delicious and the addition of peaches makes it one of a kind.
