Red Yam No. 1 features smooth red skin encasing deep orange, moist flesh that becomes tender and creamy when cooked. The flavor is rich and sweet with subtle nutty undertones, developing caramel notes as it roasts or bakes. Ideal for mashing, roasting, or casseroles, these yams are a staple in both savory and sweet dishes, offering color, texture, and comforting natural sweetness.
