Taste the purple magic of the Philippines.
Made from 100% real ube kinampay — Royal Purple Yam — this powder brings the sweet, nutty, and creamy taste of the islands to your kitchen.
You’ll need:
2 tablespoons Masarap Ube Kinampay powder
1 cup water
4 egg yolks
1 cup sugar
1 ½ cups whole milk
1 – 4 teaspoons ube extract 5-20ml
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
¼ teaspoon salt
How to make it:
To Rehydrate the Ube Powder
Combine the ube powder and water in a saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture forms a paste similar to a thick pudding. Stir more frequently as the mixture thickens to prevent scorching at the bottom of the pan.
To Make the Ube Ice Cream
In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with half of the sugar until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy.
In a saucepan, heat the milk and the remaining sugar until hot, about 175°F (80°C), but do not allow it to boil.
Temper the egg yolks: While whisking constantly, slowly pour the hot milk in a thin stream into the egg yolk and sugar mixture to prevent curdling.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and heat while stirring constantly until it reaches 180°F (82°C). Do not allow the mixture to boil.
Remove from heat and whisk in the ube paste and ube extract. Stir in the cream and salt.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to ensure a smooth texture.
Allow the mixture to cool, then chill in the refrigerator until it reaches 40°F (4°C), approximately 4 hours or overnight.
Churn the mixture in an ice cream machine until it reaches a soft-serve consistency, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a chilled container, cover with plastic wrap, and press the wrap directly onto the surface of the ice cream.
Freeze until firm, about 4 hours.
Store the ice cream in the freezer for up to 5 days.
