What is Yams?
Large, starchy tropical tubers with rough brown skin and dense white or yellow flesh, distinct from sweet potato. They have a mild, earthy flavour and firm texture when cooked.
Peeled and boiled, roasted, fried or mashed; a staple in African and Caribbean cooking, served as a side, in stews and pounded into fufu. They must always be cooked, never eaten raw.

Why the number moves
UK produce moves through the wholesale markets — New Covent Garden and the regional markets — fed by British growers in season and by Spanish, Dutch and other imports out of season. That's why a case rate on yams can shift week to week.
Across the year the trend has been up (down about 80% over the last month). Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Per case or per kilo?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-kilo rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Often sold by the piece or by weight; choose firm, heavy tubers with unbroken skin and no soft spots, and store somewhere cool, dark and dry like potatoes.
