## Overview

This pack includes 5 medium-sized African yams (Dioscorea genus), prized for their adaptability in cooking methods such as boiling, frying, roasting, and grilling. Cultivated across Africa and other tropical regions, these tubers offer a nutrient-dense, culturally rich ingredient that enhances both traditional and modern dishes.

## Description

Average sized yams, not as big as the ones in Ghana or other African countries. Yam refers to the edible tuber that is a part of the plant belonging to the genus Dioscorea, and the family Dioscoreaceae. It is mainly cultivated in countries such as Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and Oceania. The yam is flexible to different types of cooking and can be consumed barbecued, roasted, fried, grilled, boiled, baked, smoked and even grated in some dessert recipes. The African species of yams are usually consumed by boiling, frying and roasting. Traditionally, boiled yams are consumed with palm oil, but are sometimes also served with pepper sauce or palaver sauce.

Review: Upset and disappointed - Very disappointed to waste $150 to receive spoiled and dried yams. I've never write a review but this time around, I'm very upset and sick for what I purchased. It is very unfair to take someone hard earned money and send him a rubbish like that. I will never try it again and I advice anyone not to waste his money.
Review: Spoiled tubers, very disappointing - The yams were spoiled, 3/6 were spoiled the rest were ok. Not happy at all, to expensive for that to happen. Do we get a refund??
