This Ube Taho is super easy to make using melted Ube Ice Cream! Then layer it with instant boba and dessert tofu.
I didn't know that I would have a series of Taho recipes, but here we are and making a little update to the beloved Ube Taho.
I am not a fan of using lots of Ube flavoring so instead in this recipe we will be using melted Ube Ice cream. Yes! I said what I said. The ice cream makes it more creamy and I think more flavorful and depending on which ice cream brand you use, you might even get bits of real ube in there.
and there's more..
Taho Recipes
I told you I had a few
What You Will Need
Instant Boba - Please get the good ones from Taiwan. The ones from the freezer section are the best kids and have really good bounce.
Ube Ice Cream - Make your own or use store bought. Just make sure it's from a Filipino Brand. Support your people!!!
Dessert Tofu - The key is making sure you get dessert tofu. The texture is lighter than even using silky soft tofu. You can find this at H-Mart, 99 Ranch and other Asian markets in the dairy section. It won't be in the tofu section.
Soy Milk - This is optional, but I like the additional soy milk.
How To Make Ube Taho
Melt 2 tablespoons of Ube ice cream. Be as generous as you want with the size.
Then prepare the instant boba according to package directions. Place a scoop in the bottom of the glass.
Then layer with some melted ube ice cream and dessert tofu.
Top the layer with a bit of soy milk.
Then add more boba and melted ube ice cream.
Keep layering until you get to the top of your glass. Finish with more boba and melted ube ice cream if you wish.
