Chinese Yam Waffles

I never imagined this:

I have been growing Chinese yams in large pots. I love the yam berries. The tubers are the real prize. I peel and chop them. The flesh is slimy. I puree the chopped yam in the food processor. I pour the puree into an oiled waffle maker. There is no need to add eggs or flour. The yams make delicious waffles! I can freeze the waffles easily. Itโ€™s a great crop.

That comment was on my in-depth yam-growing video:

I haven’t eaten the Chinese yam roots even though we’ve grown them for years.

The complete comment reads:

I’ve seen the gutter method but haven’t tried it. We just eat the bulbils. I may have to plant more so we can eat the tubers.
