Puto Ube is a steamed cake that can either be made with rice flour or just the usual all-purpose flour. It is easy to distinguish compared to most due to its vibrant purple color coming from its main ingredient called ube or purple yam.
The taste will be quite different as well due to the subtle hints of ube, if you haven’t tried it yet it will taste somewhere between a normal yam and a sweet potatoes. Like the normal puto this rice cake can be topped with cheese or salted duck eggs, it can be enjoyed as a snack or as a side dish with dinuguan or Pancit.
Puto ube is just one of the type of puto, but how many versions of puto is out there? Well there is a lot and you are only limited by your imagination, here at Ang Sarap I think I posted several already like the Puto Pao, Puto Flan, Puto Calasiao, Puto Kutsinta and the regular Puto. These are just the few types of this delicious steamed rice cake there are even more exciting versions out there like the Puto Pandan, Puto Bumbong, Puto Lanson, Puto Maya and Puto Seko to name some.
Puto can be eaten on its own commonly, but you can also add toppings of your choice: like cheese, butter/margarine, hard-boiled eggs, meat, or freshly grated coconut.
This is just for showing the different toppings or flavor that you can add to your Puto/rice cakes.
