Ube Kinampay Powder

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

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with half of the sugar until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy. 
  2. In a saucepan, heat the milk and the remaining sugar until hot, about 175°F (80°C), but do not allow it to boil.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Remove from heat and whisk in the ube paste and ube extract. Stir in the cream and salt.
  6. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer to ensure a smooth texture.
  7. Allow the mixture to cool, then chill in the refrigerator until it reaches 40°F (4°C), approximately 4 hours or overnight.
  8. 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.
  9. Freeze until firm, about 4 hours.
  10. Store the ice cream in the freezer for up to 5 days.
