Description
Giron Powdered Purple Yam – Ube (4.06 oz) is dried purple yam in powder form, the shortcut Filipino and Vietnamese home bakers use when fresh ube is not available. Rehydrated, it brings the distinctive violet colour and the gentle, earthy-sweet yam flavour that defines ube halaya, ube cakes, ube ice cream and countless purple desserts. A small pack goes a long way because the colour and flavour are concentrated.

How to use / Cach dung
Rehydrate the powder in warm water or milk according to the pack directions and let it stand until it swells into a smooth paste. For ube halaya, cook the paste with milk, condensed milk, sugar and butter over low heat, stirring constantly until thick and glossy. For cakes, breads and ice cream, blend the hydrated paste into your batter or base. Adjust liquid slowly – ube powder absorbs a lot of moisture and it is easier to add more than to take it back.
Storage / Bao quan
Store the sealed pack in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. After opening, keep the powder in an airtight container and always use a dry spoon; any moisture will cause clumping.
