SWEET POTATOES Fried raw yams. Choose orange yams instead of the yellow sweet potato because they are sweeter and juicier. Peel raw yams and slice lengthwise in slices about 1/3 imch thick. Cook in frying pan with bacon or ham drippings (or butter or mrgarine if you haven't the other). Fry on both sides until tender. Salt after removing from pan so grease won't smoke. Hint..to keep peeled yams from going black while waiting to fry them, --put in kettle of cold water and 1 tbs. vinegar.
