Ube has long been a well-loved crop in the Philippines, not only for its delicious taste but versatility, too. Recently, it has gained popularity abroad too due to its pretty hue and unique flavor, as well as how easily it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes.
Thus, Astoria Culinary Expert Services saw the need – not only locally but also globally – and recognized the issue with its seasonal availability. As the pioneer product of the Farm-to-Table initiative, wherein crops are sourced directly from farmers across the Philippines, we have transformed this beloved root crop into an ube powder that is shelf-stable and very easy to use in a variety of recipes.
For commercial and home use
Flavorful and fairly easy to use, this ube powder is already a kitchen staple for many. It is made from 100% dehydrated and pulverized ube purple yam, and has zero additives, preservatives, colorants, or extenders.
To prepare it, just dissolve the powder in warm water and let it soak for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour. You can then proceed in using it as a base for various ube-based dishes such as ube halaya, ube ice cream, and so on. Both professional chefs and even home cooks will appreciate how easy it is to prepare without the elimination of the goodness of real ube crops.
