OMG this is beautiful. And 'thirsty for' is back!!! It's by far my fave series ever on youtube it always amazes me! Thanks for bringing it back, starting again with this gorgeous shake!
Thirsty For made an incredible, and festive return to Tastemade. Now all we need is Laura with Raw Vegan Not Gross, and the channel will bask in its true glory. Personally, I'm extremely excited.
Although yams and sweet potatoes are both angiosperms (flowering plants), they are not related botanically. Yams are a monocot (a plant having one embryonic seed leaf) and from the Dioscoreaceae or Yam family. Sweet Potatoes, often called ‘yams’, are a dicot (a plant having two embryonic seed leaves) and are from the Convolvulacea or morning glory family. Yams Yams are closely related to lilies and grasses. Native to Africa and Asia, yams vary in size from that of a small potato to a record 130 pounds (as of 1999). There are over 600 varieties of yams and 95% of these crops are grown in Africa. Compared to sweet potatoes, yams are starchier and drier. Sweet Potatoes The many varieties of sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas) are members of the morning glory family, Convolvulacea. The skin color can range from white to yellow, red, purple or brown. The flesh also ranges in color from white to yellow, orange, or orange-red. Sweet potato varieties are classified as either ‘firm’ or ‘soft’. When cooked, those in the ‘firm’ category remain firm, while ‘soft’ varieties become soft and moist. It is the ‘soft’ varieties that are often labeled as yams in the United States.
Sweet potatoes and yams are 2 different things!!! Yams are purple and have dark purple markings in the flesh and sweet potatoes are just one solid color but can either be purple or yellow or orange
Totally love the way you guys shoot it! Can you do a drink call ''bubur cacar''? It's one of the amazing sweet tooth in Malaysia. Check out other sweet tooth too, cos they are really heavenly good. We usually categories them as 糖水 which means sweet water.
Any help on who is doing this rollicking version of "Turkey in the straw", the song in this video? This version is so.....so quick and energetic, I must have it on download. XD
Few suggestions for next videos: -Baadam ka hareera (indian almond drink, served hot) -muharram ka sherbet (authentic to the part of India I'm from, usually made during the isla m ic month of muharram) -falooda (need I say more?)
When I first saw this video, I didn't know what a yam was but I knew what a sweet potato was, and I was just sitting here thinking, "who calls sweet potatoes yams? That is a huge sweet potato!". Then I realised that a yam is a different vegetable.
YES! THIRST FOR IS BACK!! thank you, Tastemade, I missed those little videos ;D
Me too!
Love the recipe and love that Thirsty For... is back!!! But just so you know, sweet potatoes and yams are VERY different!

R.I.P. "Thirsty For...." AKA pretty much the only reason I subscribed to Tastemade.

I liked this because you obviously put a lot of work into proving our argument.
And palms, daylillies, orchids, ginger, yucca, etc. To say "closely related" is too generous when it comes to the monocots.
You back at last! I can't even tell how much I adore this show!
Welcome back guys, we missed you! That shake looks ridiculously yummy!
Been waiting so long for the return of thirsty for, hoping they'll make more.

Any help on who is doing this rollicking version of "Turkey in the straw", the song in this video? This version is so.....so quick and energetic, I must have it on download. XD
The New Kingston Trio. It says in the description, unless you have found it already.

-Baadam ka hareera (indian almond drink, served hot)
-muharram ka sherbet (authentic to the part of India I'm from, usually made during the isla m ic month of muharram)

Yo-hooooo its baaack
For all the white people who think a yam and a sweet potato is the same thing they're not theyre two completely different vegetables
That's what I keep telling my mom! I love sweet potatoes but I don't like yams and shes all "it's the same thing" NO IT's NOT MOM!
LilJosieLeAnn mmm sweet potatoes yams are pretty good too.
When I first saw this video, I didn't know what a yam was but I knew what a sweet potato was, and I was just sitting here thinking, "who calls sweet potatoes yams? That is a huge sweet potato!". Then I realised that a yam is a different vegetable.
Dioscorea/Ipomoea. Botany and taxonomy, at least when it comes to crops and common local species, should be taught in public schools.
