Ingredients
- cooked ube
- pomegranate
Ube Hummus
- 1 1/10 lb fresh ube
- 1 garbanzo beans
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1 tbsp roasted garlic
- 1 lemon or lime juice
- garbanzo liquid
- ice
- salt, to taste
Ube Pita
- 7 1/10 oz mashed ube
- ube coloring
- 1 3/5 cups water
- 0.42 oz sugar
- 0.21 oz active dry yeast
- 1 4/5 oz ube powder
- 1 1/10 oz olive oil
- 1 3/10 lb bread flour
- 0.42 oz salt
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 375°F (374°F). Place the fresh ube on a baking sheet and bake until completely soft, about 30‑35 minutes. Let it cool enough to handle, then peel off the skin.
- 2For the hummus, combine the baked ube, canned garbanzo beans, tahini, roasted garlic, lemon or lime juice, garbanzo liquid, a handful of ice, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding more ice or water if needed to reach a spreadable consistency.
- 3For the pita dough, whisk together mashed ube, ube coloring, water, sugar, and active dry yeast. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to activate the yeast, then stir in ube powder, olive oil, bread flour, and salt. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 8‑10 minutes.
- 4Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, roughly 30 minutes.
- 5Punch the dough down, divide it into equal balls (about 8‑10), and let them rest for 5 minutes. Roll each ball thin (≈¼‑inch thick).
- 6Heat a dry skillet over medium‑high heat. Cook each pita for 1‑2 minutes per side, flipping until the pita puffs up and develops light browning.
- 7Serve the ube hummus with warm ube pita, topping the pita with chopped cooked ube, a drizzle of olive oil, and pomegranate seeds.
Helpful tips while cooking
AI-assisted notes grounded in this recipe's ingredients, timings, and method—not additional creator instructions.
Cool baked ube before peeling
Allow the roasted ube to cool enough to handle before removing the skin.
Activate yeast with a short rest
Let the yeast mixture sit for 5 minutes before adding the dry ingredients.
Rest dough balls before rolling
After punching down, let the portioned dough balls rest 5 minutes to relax the gluten.
Adjust hummus consistency gradually
Add ice or water a little at a time while blending to reach a spreadable texture.
