Ube – Purple Yam

A type of yam known as Dioscorea alata is also called purple yam, ube, violet yam, or water yam. Many mistake this Southeast Asian vegetable with a tuberous root for taro root. Formerly a Filipino staple, it now grows all over the world. Greyish brown in color with a striking purple interior, purple yams cook to a mushy, potato-like texture. They are included in a range of sweet and savory cuisines and have a pleasant, nutty flavor.
