Cooking Tips:
  1. You may spread additional butter or margarine on top of the jam before serving. 

  3. For the sweet toothed, sprinkle a little sugar on top of the jam after placing on the large platter. 

  5. Instead of manually grating the ube, you may cut it in cubes and use a blender to powderize the ube.
