Food Faves: Brazo de Mercedes ala Ube (Purple Yam)

Tweet

I grabbed myself a fresh, hot cup of black coffee and resumed my normal routine. Lunch time passed and after having pork pochero (pork again!), here's Ube Brazo de Mercedes to serve me another unforgettable, first-taste experience. It tasted just like ice cream. I'm not sure what was sprinkled on top of it but there was a lot more ube on the center. It was so much sweeter but just the right sweetness compared to the usual brazos that we know. I remember the time when there was too much of it at home. Me and my youngest brother got sick of eating it and we gave it to the dog when no one else was looking. Sorry folks, at least that dog got a sweet treat! Photo grabbed from spot.ph.
