The basics
What is ube?
Ube is a purple yam widely used in Filipino cuisine. The flavour is soft, lightly sweet and creamy, with a subtle vanilla-like and nutty undertone. Thanks to its striking purple colour, ube is popular in desserts, drinks and pastry.
Ube is often confused with taro or purple sweet potato, but it is not the same. Ube has its own flavour profile and is valued above all for the combination of colour, taste and Filipino culinary tradition.
