Fresh Chinese yam root, also known as Wai Shan, is a versatile and nutritious root vegetable with a slightly sweet, nutty flavor and a crisp, juicy texture. It is similar in texture to potatoes, but with a firmer and more starchy structure.
Rich in fiber, vitamin C, B6, potassium and zinc, it is a healthy choice that supports digestion, energy levels and overall well-being.
This popular ingredient in Asian cooking can be used in both sweet and savory dishes, where it adds a unique flavor and texture. It becomes soft and creamy when cooked and is perfect for soups, stir-fries, congees, or as a side in Asian dishes.
