I yam what I yam

That looks like a Cali fuel tank. (Guzzi content)  The little dammit on the front is the vapor vent.

Solved, but can one make a pie from it?

   Sure, but it will give you gas....

I usually put yams and/or carrots in my steel cut oats, every morning.

I rub them down with butter, wrap in foil and bake. Once done, split that sucker and add more butter.

That little worm thingy IS a worm. Ear worm-a song that gets stuck on auto replay in your head. Henery indeed! Harumph.

Yum...it all sounds good... I really don't eat the way I ought to but you all got me to thinking about it...

 Hey, Dusty, how about a Wild Guzzi Cookbook? 

[prof_stack]

Toaster oven all the way.  Yogurt on top.  Then add some cooked steel cut oats for the perfect topping to a perfect meal!

 Hey, Dusty, how about a Wild Guzzi Cookbook?

 We have discussed a cookbook before . Maybe just start a thread with the heading "Recipes" and see what happens Vince .

Supposedly baked sweet potato topped with yogurt is one of the perfect food combos . Lately that has become  one of my go to dinners , easy to fix , and satisfies a couple of different cravings . Damn, between healthy pizza and yams , I hardly ever eat junk anymore

All to soon all of us will be gone who watched Popeye as kids.

A yam is part of my regular diet when my wife is out of town and I am 'baching it' for the night.  I boil one for about 30 minutes, grill a small, boneless pork chop or 5/6 ozs of salmon, a glass or so of red wine -- quite nice.

I grew me some sweet pataters a couple of years ago

If that's Orange on the inside over here we call them Kumara.
I experimented this year and put Two of the cut off tips in the
Herb patch - I now have two Kumara plants growing but don't
know how long they take to mature. I figure when the plant
dies back, the tuber will be fully mature?

Maurie, I recall Pop buying them at the farmer's market mid-summer here in the northern hemisphere. Mom would bake them and freeze for use later during winter. I doubt the foliage would die unless hit with a hard freeze so watch for off shoots coming up near to the mother plant. You have two so pluck one and investigate. Yes, ours are orange inside.

Thanks RedR,
Still a couple of months available growing time yet but
will do. We like ours steamed or baked mostly, but they're
also excellent in a half/half mix of potato mashed and with
Chives or Onion/Leek cooked off with some Bacon mixed
through.
Did a Bolognaise last night with our Amish Paste Tomatoes.
They were so sweet I only had to add salt to balance the
flavours - yummy. Gotta love Summer.
