When making a candied yam casserole, use homemade marshmallow fluff instead of store-bought marshmallows. The fluff adds more creaminess and flavor to yam dishes.
The basic steps involve boiling corn syrup, water, and sugar on the stove until the mixture reaches about 240 degrees Fahrenheit.
Then, beat the sticky, sweet syrup into egg whites, cream of tartar and vanilla extract, whisking until stiff peaks. The result is a spread that's as sweet as you want.
