Ingredients:
2 lbs. garnet yams
½ cup milk (alternative milk okay too)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon salt
1 bulb fennel, finely sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Wine Tip:
Sweet yams love to be paired with a sour undertone, which is why the bitter cherry note in Kristen's pick, the Seresin Leah Pinot Noir 2006 is a sure bet with our Garnet Yam Mash with Crispy Fennel.
