OK, the picture is the Ani's version. Our homemade attempt needs a little work. Based on our recent experiment, I've made some modifications.
However, Roselani haupia ice cream still pretty much drives this dessert over the top. NOTES:1) Okinawan sweet potatoes spoil VERY quickly. Use them within 2 days of buying them.
2) Reduced butter by half in sweet potatoes. 3) Noh pre-mix haupia makes a jello-like haupia. While the taste is good, the texture is a little too firm. 3) Bars or traditional pie shape work equally well. |
