Purple Yam Cream
- 300 grams Purple yams
- 30 ml Heavy cream
- 60 grams Sugar
- Thoroughly wash the yams and steam for about 20 minutes in a steamer.
- Of course, boiling or microwaving is also fine, but it will change the moisture content.
- The skins should peel right off.
- The purple color is very strong and will stain clothing, so be careful when handling!
- When I measured the amount to cream, it came to 300 g, so 20% the amount of sugar came to 60 g. Purple yams are not as sweet as Japanese sweet potatoes, so a bit more sugar is needed.
- Lightly mash the yam with sugar, add heavy cream, and whip everything together.
- A food processor will make it even smoother.
- Or, you can pass it through a strainer before adding the heavy cream.
- When it's done, use it in tarts.
- Or you can use it for showy pastries or cake decoration.
