Silky smooth

************** Silky Smooth Yams ************************

This is Jeff’s favorite way to eat yams

1 medium yam or half of a large per person
Raw shelled pumpkin seeds
1 TBS olive oil
Seasoned salt
1/3c whole milk or half & half per serving
1 TBS butter per serving
Salt and freshly cracked pepper

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Pierce the yams and place on a baking sheet. Roast the yams until very soft about an hour. Over medium heat, sauté the pumpkin seeds in the olive oil. Sprinkle with seasoned salt and toast until they begin to brown and “pop”.

In a small saucepan, melt the butter in the milk until the mixture is warm. Scoop the flesh of the yams and place in a bowl. Using an electric beater, whip in the warm milk mixture until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Top with the toasted seeds.
