Peel and Dice Yams in Advance?

[Aria B.]

Can I peel and dice a couple of yams today for soup I'm making tomorrow? If so would I just put the cubes in a container in the fridge? Thanks in advance!

Yes, you can. Just make sure you cut off any bruised areas when peeling - they will change colour overnight. If you're really concerned, you can cover them with water, but it's not necessary.

Thanks, Pam. You were right. I followed your advice and the soup turned out wonderfully.
