Anyone ever tried steaming yams in one?
Dad has decided lately that he wants more yams in our diet for the
vitamin A. <G> They ARE good, but I usually peel them then braise them
in the skillet until soft. I'd like an easier way to cook them.

Views? And no, I don't want to empty or turn on the oven in the mornings
when I'm cooking lunch!
