The final thickening can make the fungus and yam look moisturized, and not look dry.
Yam has the effect of astringent, so those with dry stool should not eat it; in addition, those with evil spirits should not eat yam.
If the yam is sliced and not used for a long time, it should be soaked in salt water to prevent oxidation and blackening.
When fresh yam is cut, there will be mucus, which can easily hurt your hands. You can wash it with water and a little vinegar first to reduce the mucus.
