Steps

1. 1

   Bake the fresh ube until completely soft. The source does not specify an oven temperature or baking time.

2. 2

   Let the baked ube cool enough to handle, then peel off the skin and set it aside.

3. 3

   Add the ingredients listed for the ube hummus—cooked ube, garbanzo beans, tahini, roasted garlic, lemon or lime juice, garbanzo liquid, ice, and salt—to a blender.

4. 4

   Blend the hummus mixture until completely smooth and creamy, adding garbanzo liquid as needed to adjust the consistency.

5. 5

   For the pita, add the mashed ube, ube coloring diluted in water, sugar, active dry yeast, ube powder, olive oil, bread flour, and qsalt to a mixing bowl.

6. 6

   Knead the mixture until it forms a smooth, elastic dough.

7. 7

   Cover the dough and let it rise until doubled in size, approximately 30 minutes.

8. 8

   Punch down the risen dough, portion it into equal-sized balls, and let the dough balls rest. The source does not specify the resting time.

9. 9

   Roll each dough ball out thin.

10. 10

    Cook each rolled pita on a hot pan, flipping it until it puffs up slightly and develops some browning. The source does not specify the pan temperature or cooking time.

11. 11

    Serve the ube hummus with the cooked pita, topped or accompanied by chopped cooked ube, olive oil, and pomegranate.
