Purple Potato and Milk Pudding

Ingredients

150g purple potato, 360g fresh milk, 50g sugar, 12g gelatin powder

Method

1, soak the gelatin powder in a little water to soften it.

2, peel the purple potato, steam it until cooked, then put it in a blender and blend with 200g of fresh milk (blend into purple potato puree).

3, pour the remaining 160g of fresh milk into the pot, add sugar and gelatin powder, stir until dissolved.

4, add purple potato puree and bring to a boil, then continue to stir over low heat for five minutes. Keep stirring continuously to prevent sticking and burning.

5, pour it into a container and let it cool, then put it in the refrigerator until it solidifies. It tastes better when it’s cold.

Purple Potato and Silver Ear Soup

Ingredients

Purple potato, silver ear, rock sugar

Method

1, soak the silver ear in clean water for about 1 hour, until the silver ear becomes soft and fully expanded.

2, peel the purple potato and cut into small cubes.

3, after the silver ear is soaked and expanded, rinse off the dust and other small impurities, then tear it into small pieces. The size is actually up to you. I prefer to tear the silver ear into smaller pieces, which is easier to cook and convenient to drink. I usually use it as water, so I tear it very small.

4, put the silver ear in the soup pot, add water, bring to a boil, then turn to low heat and simmer for 1 hour. You can add more water and make sure to add it all at once. It must be cooked over low heat to extract the jelly. If you use high heat, the silver ear will not soften even if the water boils dry.
