One of my childhood favorites would have to be YEMA! With the help of our office secretary, I remember trying to make one before with just evaporated milk! We simply reduced the evaporated milk in low fire until it was the same consistency as Yema. After removing it from the heat, you can then add chopped peanuts to enhance the taste. This recipe was good but it wasn't like the ones being sold in the stores.
Yema used to be just shaped into balls. Now, they have YEMA TOWERS! This is the Yema that I want. Crunchy on the outside, soft and gooey on the inside. Never mind the yema balls that are like Pastillas de Leche, they are not as exciting to eat as these! Got these for 7 pesos each at a 7-11 Convenient Store. Cheap heaven!
Anybody with a good Yema recipe, please share! And while you're at it, if you can figure out how they shaped these into towers, let me in on the secret!
