PREPARATION OF ASSORTED TAPIOCA PEARLS
Boil:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil (use about 10 parts water to 1 part pearls).
Cook:
Add the tapioca pearls to the boiling water and stir gently to prevent them from sticking to the bottom. Wait until they float to the surface.
Simmer:
Cover and let simmer over medium heat for 15–20 minutes (depending on your desired texture).
Rest:
Turn off the heat and let the pearls sit in the hot water for another 15 minutes.
Rinse:
Drain and rinse the pearls with cold water to remove excess starch.
Sweeten:
Mix with a bit of sugar syrup or honey to keep them soft and prevent sticking.
Serve:
Add them to coconut milk, fruit desserts (Chè), or bubble tea.
💡 Quick tips for Hello Asia customers:
Do not overcook:
The pearls should be translucent on the outside while remaining slightly firm inside (al dente).
Storage:
Once cooked, they are best consumed within 4 hours. Do not refrigerate cooked pearls, as they may harden.
