Purple Yam Cream

1. 1

   Thoroughly wash the yams and steam for about 20 minutes in a steamer.

2. 2

   Of course, boiling or microwaving is also fine, but it will change the moisture content.

3. 3

   The skins should peel right off.

4. 4

   The purple color is very strong and will stain clothing, so be careful when handling!

5. 5

   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.

6. 6

   Lightly mash the yam with sugar, add heavy cream, and whip everything together.

7. 7

   A food processor will make it even smoother.

8. 8

   Or, you can pass it through a strainer before adding the heavy cream.

9. 9

   When it's done, use it in tarts.

10. 10

    Or you can use it for showy pastries or cake decoration.
