You know me, the more colorful and rare a vegetable is, the more I love it! This recipe and that color have captivated me. I'm going to have to find me some Ube powder! Thanks for this recipe.

Dear Chef, The ube cookies are the most intriguing I have seen! What do you think about using the ube flour in a quick bread, e.g., banana bran apricot, which is your recipe. Thank you!!! Susan

Wow

When i am old i want to eat purple!

In france there is a sort of similar product called creme d ipomee made w sweet potatoes

It is a cheaper and quite delicious alternative to chestnut puree

I love it!

But imagine it purple!

I talk about your help in finding the origin of kalougat, my great grand mere's chocolate cake at all my presentations on Bitter Sweet!

Hope all is well on your island

I am off to volunteer cook in the Peruvian amazon tomorrow.

Lots to tell later

Hugs to you both
