HOW TO COOK PERFECTLY SOFT AND CHEWY BROWN SUGAR TAPIOCA PEARLS

[@shamdumaguing3563]

I'm learning so much from you Ms. Chao! I'm planning to put up my own milktea business soon, and finding free tutorials like this would help me a lot! Thank you so much!

[@thehonestbluntguy5947]

Have you opened one?

[@Eehhhhhhhhhh]

Good luck!

[@sanriocielo]

This is very helpful! Thank you :) My boba pearls would always be soft and chewy but wouldn't have much flavor no matter how long I left it to soak in brown sugar! Cooking it is a game-changer!

[@scriptyshake]

Same here, I just got the Wu Fu Yuan brand that everyone seems to recommend and they were chewy and well cooked but had no flavor and were even a little bitter, even if I soaked them in honey :( Next time I will definitely cook them with brown sugar and see if that improves the flavor.

[@Estellemarie_]

I'm learning so much on this channel. I hope you offer an online milk tea/coffee training via videos and manuals because we cannot attend the classroom training during ECQ. 😊

[@rizasri]

Great suggestion! Planning to do just that soon via Zoom. Will keep all posted!

Could i keep it refrigerator after cook? before i put it in my drink?

[@Ammar.sadeq1984]

Can we just add brown suger syrup? Whats the ratio to tapioca? For business

[@leleadele]

Very informative! Thank you!

[@baileytaylor2473]

Thank you Ms. Chao! So If I open a bag of tapioca pearls even if they are uncooked, I must use them in the same day?

[@5.0issac210]

So if you open a bag and only use half or less of the boba pearls, make sure to store the boba pearls in an airtight container so they don't absorb the moisture and go bad

[@andra822]

Thank you so much 💕 I have a question to this: Can I keep them in the fridge for a few days without them sticking to each other and getting hard to eat?

[@rizasri]

Not with tapioca pearls. They don't hold their texture longer than a few hours :-(

[@GuardTower]

They will stick, but when i store my home made Boba pearls, i mix a small amount of muscovado/ brown sugar syrup to separate them

[@ayemonthant5841]

Can u suggest how many grams of brown sugar we should use for this half grams of pearl.

[@rdu239]

Hi, When I am doing trial and error and RnD stage of recipe making I have a tendency of cooking way too much of pearls that I supposedly needed, I can only drink 2 glass max in a day (and I dont drink milk tea everyday) for taste testing but I always end up with excess pearls. What do you think is the perfect cup measurement if you want to cook just enough?

[@rizasri]

I would do 1 cup of pearls with 5 cups of water to boil 😊

[@cuandotumedasunagalleta7169]

Hi! Love your video, very helpful! What brand is your wok? Thank you so much!

[@rizasri]

Oh, it's just a regular stainless steel wok :-)

[@josephlyimo4232]

I tried cooking my boba pears. Everything went well at first, but after turning off the heat and letting the boba rest in the pot for a while, I came to see that all the boba pearls had sunk to the bottom of the pot and they were sluggish and they were sticking together.... Where do you think I went wrong....

[@TeylaDex]

you need to gently stir every once in a while

[@seivhe]

you should run it to cold water so that it would stop cooking any further

[@trishamarietarnate1225]

Do you have a video in making brown sugar? By the way, I love your videos!! It makes me want to try your recipes even at home 😍

Hi ms chao are you using a hard tapioca pearl? Or it’s a ready made dough of tapioca Pearl?

[@rizasri]

I used commercially available tapioca pearls:-)

that's why my opened tapioca bag wasn't cooking well , I never knew it goes bad that fast.

Hello, the procedure says it all. :-)

[@angielynbautistatampol3503]

Do the water need to boil or it just need to have small bubbles before putting the tapioca pearls?

[@rizasri]

When it is about to boil is fine too

[@bethzaidavasquez6794]

How can i store the cooked tapiocas for later use?

[@princessbonifacio-asuncion1968]

hello im just wondering I have a chewy tapioca in the morning..yet when it is already in the afternoon, it is not chewy anymore..how can I maintain the chewyness??

[@rizasri]

Tapioca pearls do not hold their texture for long. If you would like to maintain the texture, keep them warm. :-). Selecting a better brand helps. Some brands are better than others. Good luck!

[@PRJ3856]

Ms Chao, can I use this sweet boba for any milk tea, like say Thai tea? Or will I have to use simple syurp?

[@rizasri]

Sure!

Hi Ms Riza, good day! I just purchased Honey Drops Golden Tapioca Pearl, and Mini Tapioca from Chao Online... May I ask if you can give me how to prepare/cook these tapiocas? Thank you in advance for your reply. God bless!

Hello. It is the same. 30 minutes to boil and 20 minutes to cool down. :-)

Do we rinse it in cold or warm water

[@ehmzyyy]

Hi po! How long will the brown sugar tapioca pearls last? After 4-5 hours of cooking them (stayed in hot water bath) the pearls have gone hard. I would like to know if they need to stay in the heat to make them chewy and soft for a long time? Thank you!

[@rizasri]

Tapioca pearls should only be used within the day it was made. They do not retain their texture well. Soak in room temperature water is better unless you want to keep them heated at all times on low heat. Good luck!

[@prettywoman_23]

Hello Ms Chao. What brand of Tapioca Pearl did you use?

[@rizasri]

Hello, this is a brand from Thailand. :-)

[@minmingwafah]

Hi, may I ask why tapioca pearls sink at the buttom of the pot? I made a batch and after 30 mins, only a few floats on top of the water. The pearls sinked. :( and the size is small

[@rizasri]

Could be that the pearls are not good anymore?

[@minmingwafah]

@@rizasri I also heard from a friend that the brand I bought isn't the best. Can you suggest a different brand of tapioca pearls? thank you! :)

[@mayabanzuela8465]

Hi po! Ask ko lang po if pwede na hindi na irinse yung tapiocas? Ang ginagawa lang po kasi namin is bawas ng water then dun na directly nagmmix ng brown sugar. Di na po rinse yung pearl. Ano din po ba purpose ng pag rinse ng pearl? Thank you po!

[@rizasri]

Hi Maya! The reason why we rinse the pearls with cold water is para hindi na sya maluto pa lalo sa sariling init and lumamig sya. If you put the brown sugar directly that should work too - to dissolve the sugar. :-)

Honestly? I think you should throw them away if you have any leftover at the end of the day. Otherwise, keep them in room temperature. These don't last. Make just enough for the day. That is the honest truth :-)
