Yam doesn't need to be blanched.

The sticky substance attached to the outside of yam is mucin composed of mannan and globulin, which contains certain nutrients. Blanching water will destroy mucin outside yam, thus destroying globulin, and the nutritional value of yam will also be lost to a certain extent.

Yam tends to turn black due to oxidation. If it is not cooked in time, it needs to be soaked in water to prevent yam from oxidation, but soaking in water will also lose the nutritional value of yam to a certain extent, so try to shorten the soaking time of yam as much as possible, and it does not need to be cooked for too long after cooking, and vegetables will also lose their nutritional value if cooked for too long.
