What’s Taro
The root vegetable taro is widely loved in the world of drink because of the taro bubble tea. It is a good-looking purple color. Taro is a starchy staple food in many countries, and it can be cooked in various ways, including steamed taro, deep-fried taro chips, or based. Raw taro may cause irritation, so you need to cook it thoroughly.
Oh Taro Paste
One of the most popular forms of taro is taro paste. In this recipe, we will use taro paste, too. Real taro has a very light purple color. So, to strengthen the color, ube powder or sometimes purple sweet potato powder will be added to create a lovely light purple color.
You can steam or boil the taro cubes until soft and completely cooked. Then, blend with milk, sugar, or sometimes butter into a smooth consistency. Taro paste is much easier to keep compared with fresh taro because you can freeze it.
