I got an email from my buddy Glen in Vancouver who had this fabulous Yam Recipe that he wanted to share, and Glen likes to share with his neighbours....(who has a loud barking dog)

Here's a yam dish for you...

Yamataki is a traditional Japanese yam dish that's making a comeback, be
the first on your block to check it out! It's extremely simple to
prepare and is a great offering to serve to your neighbors as summer
turns to fall.
What you need:
- 4-5 fist sized yams
- Barbeque - microwave will do in a pinch
- A pair of oven mitts
- Salt
- Aluminum foil (optional)
- Tongs (optional)
Directions:
- Salt and cook yams at medium temperature for 30 minutes, wrap in foil
if you want to keep the innards neat and tidy.
- At the 30 minute mark test yam with fork for doneness, cook longer if
required.
- When done don the oven mitts, pick up a yam, and hurl it over your
fence. Repeat until done.
Tips:
- Use tongs for more distance
- Watch for small children and large animals
