---------------------
Yema

Ingredients

1 cup condensed milk
5 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons butter
For caramel compound:

1 cup sugar
½ cup water
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar

Procedure:

1. In a double boiler, heat water, place the upper pan & vanilla and butter.
2. Cook over moderate heat until thick in consistency (do not boil).
3. Let cool & form into balls.
4. Prick yema balls w/ toothpick and dip into caramel (see Caramel Procedure)
5. Let yema balls cool & wrap in cellophane individually.

Caramel Procedure:

1. In a deep pan, mix together sugar, water, and cream of tartar.
2. Bring up to a quick boil until golden in color.
3. Take out caramel from heat.

The caramel will crystallize when stored in a cold area, so as much as possible use it immediately, or if it has hardened already, heat it over a low fire or over a very very hot pot of boiling water.

Oh man, I miss those things soooo much. I first tasted them back in 1995 when we went on vacation. I will be going home in December with my family and those are the first things I will look for when we go home. I will bring back so many boxes of yemas to last me until the next time I go home!!!!!
