Ube
For centuries, ube has been part of the Filipino table as a main component of celebratory dishes and special-occasion treats. Often confused with the taro root, it is an indigenous staple of the Philippines that has a mellow, sweet and earthy flavor, as well as a striking hue. The root vegetable often used in desserts also conveys certain parts of Philippine culture.
What's Suhail?
Suhail is one of the most important stars for the people of the Arabian Peninsula, according to Abouazza Elmhamdi, an associate professor on astrophysics at King Saud University in Riyadh. He said that the sighting of Suhail, whose luminosity is over 10,000 times that of the sun, is associated with a noticeable drop in temperatures after a long period of searing heat. The star became visible on Aug. 24 in the center of Saudi Arabia. The Suhail season lasts for 52 days, with the weather becoming pleasant at night while remaining hot during the early part of the day. By the end of the season, daytime temperatures become more comfortable.
