Same here :)

This was awesome. The wife really loved it and kept going back for more. The only change I made was cashews instead of pistachios (couldn't find deshelled pistachios and didn't want to make an extra trip to get them). Even with the change it came out great.

This has become a huge hit during the holidays with my family! I started making it a few years ago and everyone just fell in love with it!

Made this for Thanksgiving, with a couple of variations: Cultured coconut milk (yogurt) and plain coconut milk instead of buttermilk and milk, and pumpkin pie spice instead of allspice. Got loads of compliments like, "The best sweet potato casserole I've ever had." Thanks Chef John. I told everyone where to find you and all your great recipes.

I made this a few years ago for Thanksgiving and now it's demanded. I happily oblige. :)

lol me too

Hiya Chef :) This casserole looks amazing. I do have a suggestion that might up the flavor a bit... Bake the sweet potatoes in their skin and when they're tender, scoop them out and mash. There's something about the baking that adds a caramel like richness that makes it even better. I make a similar casserole with pecans on top but I will definitely try the pistachios. They are my favorite. :) I love your voice, your skill, your sense of humor and I've yet to see you cook anything that didn't pique my interest and make me hungry. Hehe Your one pot rice pudding is my new favorite. Oh and the bacon jam. And yes - those slow cooked southern green beans are to die for. Ain't nothin like em. :) Thank you for all that you share with us out in KZread land. Hugs and best wishes to you!!

I agree that baking them instead of boiling saves the flavor.

This has been the tradition in my family for years and years now thank you!

Chef John, Thank you for this recipe. I LOVE it. We just had it with a baked ham and I can't wait to make it for company. My son is allergic to nuts so I looked in the pantry for seeds which I use to replace the crunch of nuts when needed. I didn;t have any however, so searched for something crunchy and found ginger snaps. Really hard ginger snaps with some heat. I crushed them a bit and used them in the topping but cut back on the brown sugar. Awesome. I would prefer pecans or nuts but this was a good answer and it was yummy. Thanks again. Denise T.

I love this recipe. Made this every thanksgiving since I've seen it. Thanks Chef John!

I have learned more from Food Wishes than any other cooking channel-thanks chef john.

This is a real winner & by far one of the best... I've been on the hook every year for this dish during holidays & random special family meals...and it's quite simple once you done it.

Best sweet potato dish ever!!! I made this for my boyfriend and I along with the French onion green bean casserole for Thanksgiving. Absolutely amazing recipes. Thank you John!!

This recipe was the star of Christmas this year. And yes, the turkey shined but this was a solid add.

This is what I make every thanksgiving . Simply THE BEST 😋

This recipe is one of my favorites! I make it every year! So yummy!

tried this recipe for thanksgiving yesterday and it came out delicious. no doubt one of the best if not the best dish yesterday. pistachio crust was absolutely amazing.

Chef John I have to tell you this has been my go to Thanksgiving side dish for the last 5 years or so. Thanks to you I'm finally welcome at my family's house!

My family NEVER empties the sweet potato dish at Thanksgiving. I made this last year. There were no leftovers and everyone wanted the recipe. This might be one of the best new classic holiday side dishes.

Seriously... What planet are you from?... After decades of cooking shows and cook books...Recipes that WORK on youtube... Thank-you so much....

Chef John, this was so good!

I made this, and loved it! So did two other people who 'hate sweet potatoes'!

This is a big hit every year I've made it.

I’ve been making this for Christmas and thanksgiving the last 3 years and it’s always a hit!

I made this dish yesterday and all I have to say is...YUM! Perfect amount of sweetness! Thank yo so very much!

I made this last year and LOVED it! Coming back for a refresher before I make it again this year!!

I have made this twice already and I'm making it again this year. :) My guests love it!!!

im thankful for chef john posting so many videos before thanksgiving

Chef I've made this recipe every Thanksgiving since you released this video 12 years ago! It is my 'signature side dish' and my family and friends rave about it!

I wanted to add, this can be made ahead. I mixed it all up the day before, then set it out on the counter to come up in temperature for about an hour before baking it.

Did you make the entire potato part the day before and put it in the fridge? And then assembled the topping the day of and put it in the oven?

peepslostsheep Thank you for the tip 👍🏽 is going to save me more time 😄

This recipe trips all my triggers. Sweet and savory.

My grandma makes hers with sugar free marshmallows and syrup and, no joke, it's the best thing on earth.

Chef John, I made this for a friend's Thanksgiving dinner. It was truly magnificent and everyone loved it. Awkward moment was when the Jewish household found out I put milk and butter in it. Good lesson for me!

Thank you and thank goodness 🤍 a “less sweet candied yam recipe” was what I was challenged to do!

Chef John, I am abolutely amazed at boiling the sweet potatoes instead of roasting them in the oven. Rubbing the sweet potatoes with olive oil and cooking them in the oven brings out their natural sweetness, are very easy to peel and are fork mash tender when done. All together much less work and a tastier result. Cheers! I'm going to try the pistachio topping though. Looks yummy!

LOVE this recipe and so does my entire family!

Just made this and my god is it good. This is an after w/o favorite of mine. What is interesting is how amazing the sweet potatoes smell right before you put them back into the casserole dish. Hats off to you for the recipe sir.

I've made this every year since the first time I tried it. Easily a classic!

omg i now understand why I love your videos...its because your voice reminds me of old ted in how i met your mother ! there is something exciting/ friendly in your voice ♥

@BaxiBWFC No, it's more like large fried kernels of corn. They have it in the snack isle.

I made it tonight for our pre-thanksgivning-Thanksgiving-dinner. It was the total score! Everyone loved it. This will probably become a regular holiday addition :) Thank you

I make this every year. It’s the best recipe I have had

Made of for the hubby and friends a couple years ago and this year I’m making it at the fire station. Thanks Chef John.

Omg. My dad would have LOVED this ❤️❤️

Soooo tempting.. Gonna make this soon!

that looks so good cant wait to try it

Ok!! I made it!! Amaaaaaazing!!!! Thank you!! So different, and lovely!

I can't stand sweet potatoes, but my in-laws love them. This is what I'm serving this year! Keep your fingers crossed. :D

I made this last year and it was amazing! Definitely making it again this year. Thanks!

This looks delicious and I cannot wait to make this, and not just for the holidays! Thank you so much, I absolutely hate the typical sweet potato dishes with marshmallows that wrecks the delightful taste of sweet potatoes - so this looks fantastic and just what I've been looking for!

This was a complete hit! Everyone loved it. There wasn't more than a large spoonful left over. Even I ate it... and I hate sweet potatoes. I'm just about to email the recipe to three of my guests.

That looks so good. I will try it .

Ahh my favorite Chef. Thank you Chef John

I don't know how many years I've been using this recipe, but I come from a family of fancypants WASPs. Using marshmallows for any dish is totally passe. This dish, however, has become a staple. Every year they request I bring this. In fact, both sides of our family request it. Everyone eats every bite and every year they all say, "We hated sweet potatoes at Thanksgiving, until this dish appeared." It really is a success. It's probably the $20 worth of pistachios, but who cares? I'm watching this recipe again this year like every year to get myself in the shopping mood. If you've never made it, do so. There's no one with any class who doesn't die for it. Everyone always wants the recipe. I lie and say it's my secret... I'm awful.

@cartouchator Buttermilk is actually considered healthier than real milk; usually it has very little fat (because it was removed to make butter) and it's high in lactic acid, making it much easier on the digestive system than milk. It's also high in nutrients like Vitamin B12 and calcium. As for butter well...I use a lot of olive oil as a butter-alternative personally. But it's true that in moderate amounts, butter has health benefits too.

@FlyableBigCow yes

I can't wait to make this dish!!!

Oh yum! I'll try this too..thanks.

Wow I made this a day early it is so good it will not your socks off.

Yum! looks delish!

Made this for my family today and it was everyone's favorite!

Me encanta!

Looks awesome!

This looks amazing and will definitely make this for Thanksgiving this year. Thank you Chef John!!!

I will forsure be trying this!!!

I MIGHTY have to try this. I am certainly intrigued.

Thats pretty fantastic.

looks amazing!!!

Gorgeous sweet potato casserole!!😻😻😻🐯😎🌹

This was amazing!!!!

I'm a fan Chef and I just made this for the first time and bringing it to someone's home. I hope it's as awesome as it sounds. Lots of great reviews! Thanks

I've been doing this superb recipe for the last 5 years and it became a tradition in our home. Thanks chef!!! Happy Thanksgiving 2022 y'all!!!

Think I try this with a walnut topping and a pecan topping on another. YUM!

As a lover of sweet potatoes I owe it to myself to try this recipe :D

sound so good. think i'm going to make this dish for thanksgiving. thank you!

My house smells like Chef Johns house,,,did your slow cooker pot roast today! It was soooooooo good ,,thanks chef

Doing this for sure!!! Thanks!

My go to, since about 6-7 years ago. Delicious. My family and gf's family both demand it every year.

Great Video Laura! I will definitely make this one!

I love the addition of the pistachios and the fact that this isn't too sweet. Last Thanksgiving I didn't make sweet potatoes and my son almost disowned me. I'm going to try your recipe this year - love the maple syrup, cayenne, and buttermilk,

I seriously just threw away every other sweet potato recipe I've ever made b/c after making this......why would anyone make it any other way. I converted 3 sweet potato haters to loving at least this dish. Thanks chef!!! p.s. Forgive me for not putting Cayenne in, I didn't have any :(

Made it for Thanksgiving, loved it. Btw, makes for great leftover pancakes the next day. Just add eggs, milk and a little flour, bake it, eat it with cranberry sauce or gravy... awesome.

I made this last year and it was a hit, this year I'm going a little cheaper and using walnuts and regular syrup but I think it will still come out well.

Looks delicious chef!

John, I love your recipes , I use them all the time. Best wishes to food wishes.

This looks really tasty! Thanks for sharing!

well i was going to make a candied sweet potato pie i seen i a magazine now you post this recipe chef John!! lol what to do what to do!! thanks for sharing either ways!!

Wow sounds like a great recipe for something different I am so gonna make this for thanksgiving this year, thank you!

Thats awsom man i love it

TWO videos from Chef John on ONE day?! So one was a re-post but damn, how awesome!

My 3-year-old daughter watched this with me n at the end she said "mmmmmmmmmmm mommy u want some? I want some" I guess now I have to make it :)

This is so exciting to see b/c I hate the traditional marshmallow-topped-too-sweet version of sweet potato and this looks so much more palatable. Thanks chef john! Wish I had seen this before thanksgiving tho...

Love it thank you

Thank you Chef John. Never disappoints I wanted to make this but I was surprised at the amount of sugar everyone was adding.

I'm gunna try this for this year!

Yum! I will have to make this for Thanksgiving this year.We lost our sweet potato casserole person just recently,so someone has to make it,but I never did like the marshmellows.Thanks for this!

this looks so yummy im gona have to do this!!! thank you

my mother decided to make a sweet potato casserole once, and neither of us could eat it. I dont understand adding sooo much sugar/syrup to them. Maybe I'll try this one. We generally cook slices of the sweet potato in a mixture of OJ and a tiny bit of brown sugar and starch to thicken.. oh and of course butter. It's really good :)

Love this idea and your friendly sarcasm! :)

@ubermystic sadly, yes. Growing up my school cafeteria always added TONS of brown sugar and marshmallows to it. I actually thought I hated sweet potatoes because of it. It wasn't until I tried plain mashed sweet potatoes at a fancy restaurant as an adult that I realized it was the way they were prepared that had me thinking they were sickly sweet.
