That's not ube.. That's purple sweet potato. Please use google and search UBE or PURPLE YAM..

She is using a sweet potato here not Ube (Purple Yam). You'll know a real Ube root crop by the looks of it. It is usually huge in size and comes in different weird shapes. The skin is very distinctive because it's rough it almost looks like a tree bark and has hair-like tiny roots sprouting from the skin. It has a distinctive earthy nutty taste with a hint of vanilla-like flavor and coconut-like aroma. Although, I understand Ube root crop is kind a hard to find specially if you're living outside the Philippines.

The problem is the Philippines. Philippines, don’t put restriction or regulation on Ube Look what happened with the calamansi. Vietnam is the number one supplier of calamansi in US. I wish they do something about this. I want Ube to be like truffles! Sooner or later some country will take over Ube industry!😢

That isn't ube. That is Okinawa sweet potato. The real ube has a scientific name: Dioscorea alata found in the Philippines. It is woody and stringy in appearance.

They do this all the time i've noticed in these shows. I cringe everytime i hear Filipino Americans talks about aspects of the Philippines, they always get something wrong. This lady is another example, she talks about "Americanizing" ube by making it into pastries.....No, what is she talking about....its been done in the Philippines for years before anyone in the US ever heard of it....then she shows him ube when in fact its actually not ube, its something else....Ube root is large, about the size of an entire jackfruit or even bigger....not the size of a potato...

@@2Cixth those purple we called it here in the Philippines as "Camote" in english term purple sweet potato.. Ube and purple sweet potato are not same. Ube is huge and weird and ugly shape with many different color of purple depend on variety from light purple to deep purple.

it's purple sweet potato, that's why it smells like sweet potato real ube has a peel that looks like tree bark, very rough and rooty. when you cut it open, it has a thick sap. that's why you usually process it after it's been boiled, otherwise, all your blades will have sap clinging over them.

"its smells like a potato" lol because literally that's an okinawan/japanese purple sweet potato. That's not an ube

Ube is scarce due to high demand. So if something claiming to be Ube has the same price as sweet potato, then it's probably not Ube but a purple sweet potato. You got scammed 😂 Also, the purple color of the real Ube root is so bright thst even if you mix it with some other ingredient, it's purpleness is not overpowered, unlike the purple sweet potato that turns dark grayish when mixed with something.

Thats not ube.

That's a purple sweet potato and not ube. Ube has darker skin qnd rich purple in the inside. I know because we have ube in our bukid. We also have variety of sweet potato, from purple to yellow/orange sweet potato.

Lucky she got a really purple kamote that looks like ube. Then call it "ube cupcakes". Ahh it's ok to each his own. 👍

@via1968

Ай бұрын

you mean kamote cupcake.

It's ube, purple yam to "Americanize" the item. One needn't have to "Americanize" a unique ingredient like ube to make it acceptable to a different target group. One can just say ube is a local yam from the PH that's so versatile for any type of dessert one can think of making. And it's so delicious.

That is definitely not ube or purple yam. An ube tuber has irregular, dark brown skin, often rough and bark-like in texture. When cut open, it reveals a vibrant purple color, ranging from light lavender to deep violet. What she is holding is actually a purple sweet potato.

she should tell everyone that that one isn't really the legit Ube. Real ube has darker flesh and the skin is supposed to be more earthy look. that must be a purple sweet potato.

That's not ube its a purple sweet potato, ube is bigger and the skin is dark

Thats not ube, your not telling the truth girl, you dont know what ube really looks like, ube is big

That’s sweet potato

It's not ube. It's purple sweet potato she's showing. Real ube has a rough skin and as big as your legs and has a very dark brown skin. Not smooth skin on it.

Is "LA chiffon" different from "chiffon cake"? Because if they are the same, then Robert, did it wrong as chiffon requires separating the egg whites from the yolks to make meringue.

That's purple yam. It's not ube. There's distinction between the two, shape, form, and taste.

Daw kamote man na. Daw hindi pure ube

How is that ube? Thats a purple sweet potato.

Purple kamote man yan teh. 😂😂😂

I sub because of pilipino ube and Paul ..

That's okinawan sweet potato not Ube.

thats sweet potato purple 😊

Ube is pronounced as “ooh-beh” with a stress on the “eh” sound. It is not “ooh-bay”, “ooh-bey”, “ooh-bei”. It’s a filipino word, therefore it must be pronounced the way filipinos say this word.

hey tahts not ube. thats a purple sweet potato. My Goodneaa😢. Youre not a Filipino, if you dont know what ube looks like

That is not an ube! Its a purple sweet potato. Hayaaa!

Thank you m'am for introducing your bakery products, but I have only some points of observation about the UBE root crop that grows in the Philippines. @ That's not the real Ube, it is the local Pilipino Sweet potatoes with varieties of colors, from white, yellow, ube, to orange sweet potatoes. @ The real shape of the Ube, is bigger than the human head. @ For educational purposes please show the real picture of UBE. @ That's not also the real Ube jam or halaya, because you missed ingredients, the coconut cream, or milk with added butter/margarine. @ It's not also americanized, in shape of cupcake, because we have our own unique cupcake like putong puti.

Girl, that isn't ube. I'm surprised you got on camera with that lol.

The look so so good.

The original ube is not like a sweet potato, the one she showed is actually a purple sweet potato, Sorry ube halaya is made of purple yam... not sweet potato!

The real Ube have rough skin ang bigger in size.

Better have an ube farm and will get Rich.. Ube becoming difficult to find nowadays.

Lol thats not ube.

Ube is getting commercialized globally much like macha from Japan. The least they could do is identify the correct root crop.

that's purple sweet potato

Ouch thats not Ube.. gurl please don’t lie.

That's not ube, here in the Philippines we called it camote tapol.

That is not Ube, it is purple sweet potato.

Looked like purple sweet potato… not ube

Be careful with filipino ube. It has to be a real ube tuber not a purple sweet yam. They are totally different even in taste. Real ube taste is similar to Taro and they are not sweet.

I love the pretty color people.

“Why is it purple?” “Well, we’re filipino.” 🤔

OMG!!! That’s definitely not Ube. That’s purple kamote or purple camote. Ube is big and shapes are varied and different in texture and appearance from purple yam. That purple yam is used as substitute if there’s no ube available. Ube in the Philippines is the best specially the one from one of our katutubos, the Aetas. Even when taken from PH and planted in other countries it’s not the same. It’s about the soil and climate.

That’s sweet potato not Ube .

That's not ube 😂, it's a purple sweet potato. We have ube plant here in the Philippines and we also have different colors of sweet potatoes from yellow, orange and purple. Purple sweet potato is just a substitute for ube yam but the quality of ube is superior when it comes to taste.

When I make ube halaya (ube jam), I always buy powdered ube from the Philippines. Frozen grated ube are available in some places. You can find them in Asian supermarkets/groceries. These Filipino bakers using Japanese purple yams are misrepresenting the authentic Philippine ube.They know what they are doing, and it is sad. I don't think you can buy a fresh ube here in the U.S. Japanese purple yam is not the same as the Philippine ube. Let's be real.

That is not Ube it purple sweet potato.

not ube sorry

It's UBE not UBEY 😒😒😒

That's not an real ube tho lol HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thats taro not original ube,thrue ube is deep purple.

#UBE is not a purple sweet potato(thats what he was holding) "UBE" is a #PURPLEYAM usually its a like deform round shape with a bit of a hairy and rough skin. And when you peel it. It has a sticky feels to it...and a bit hard yo peel unlike sweet potatoes they have soft skin and easy to peel. And also #PURPLEYAM takes longer to cook. It has a texture of YAM coz its a yam not a potato 😅 ig, they have the same texture with "#TURNIP" 😊 Sadly, she doesn't know whats the difference, base on how she insist that what the man is holding is an UBE or PURPLE YAM. Thats what the man said, it smells like Potato😂😂😂😂

NOT UBE AT ALL, WHAT A SHAME, I KNEW ALL THE DIFFERENT VARIETIES OF UBE, AND NONE IS IN THIS VIDEO.
