Blueberry Yam Flower

Overview

Blueberry yam is a very common dish on restaurant menus. I order this dish every time I take my children to dinner. Now that yams are officially in season, I happen to have blueberry jam at home, so let’s make a blueberry yam puree too! Yams are a good ingredient for strengthening the spleen and are versatile. Blueberries are rich in anthocyanins, which have a very good effect on protecting eyesight. The soft and glutinous yam puree paired with the sweet and sour blueberry sauce is delicious and nutritious. You can make the restaurant-style blueberry yam puree using only a steamer. The steaming method can better retain the nutrients of the yam. After steaming the yam, peel off the skin and use a rolling pin to roll it into a fine puree, use a mold to shape it, and then pour blueberry sauce on it. The flower shape is pretty and the rich milky flavor coupled with the sweet and sour taste of blueberry jam is not to mention very appetizing! Next, let’s take a look at how to make this [Blueberry Yam Flower] recipe, right?

Ingredients

Steps

Use a brush to clean the mud on the skin of the yam. After washing, cut into sections and put them in a steamer. Steam over high heat for about 20 minutes until the yam becomes soft. You can prick it with a chopstick. If you can poke it through with a chopstick, turn off the heat. Then take out the steamed yam and let it cool for later use.
