The school was pretty rich and even had it's very own school employed mang-tataho that all of us flocked to during recess and lunch break.

America has no culture unless you're a certain ethnicity. Being Indigenous to the USA and Northern Mexico we have our cultures and foods that we grew up having as kids.

We didn't make Fry bread ,but has homemade corn and flour tortillas. 😍 Cheese seems to be an American thing, we put it on everything, hThing, Tapioca pudding is a thing for Asian for desert and now we have Boba shops everywhere in Asian marketplaces. I love the way America has so many ethnicities and so many restaurants now! Start going to Asian markets and look through the isles they have everything from around the world. India, Mexico, Puerto Rican, Chinese, Japanese. Cuban and more ! Cultural food marketplaces are my fave and we can find Vietnamese restaurants as well. American versions of these foods are horrible, lol. I'd rather experience the real,authentic foods made by someone who knows the REAL deal. We have too many TexMex foods instead of ORIGINAL foods of my ancestors. Chimichangas are NOT from MEXICO ,haha! ELOTE (corn on the cob) is different here in America. Of u don't get it from an original Mexican vendor ,it's not the same! 😩 Go to Mexican food markets and taste the chicken that looks yellow and BBQ it outside on a grill. Amazing flavor !

[@carolinafortunata6318]

Indonesian also have a similar dessert calles "Tahwa" but it's served warm with a little hint of ginger in the syrup, and the syrup is more diluted.

[@griefer3454]

For anyone who wants to know what it is; it is a soybean curd. Usually eaten as a savoury or sweet dish. Usually eaten with a sugar solution thats warm or hot. Around the world people call it different names though its somewhat similar. Tau huey, dou hua, tahu, taho and many more 😊

[@neevhingrajia3822]

My guy did not just use the word "sugar solution" 💀

[@elissaaleph]

And tofu. Not sure why you omitted that VERY common name.

[@AceBeeCee]

In China we call them dou hua :)

[@sam5900]

I was adopted from Moldova when I was six. There was this dessert I remember that we used to eat in my orphanage and I remember it being soooo good, even after all these years. I’ve tried to look it up and find it but no luck. I would do almost anything to try it again!😭 I’m so glad you were able to try this dessert from your childhood again!

[@grimmaidentales]

I hope you find it! Any idea what it was made of?

[@s.rogers5773]

Maybe someone from Moldova can help you here. What were the ingredients? Was it hot / cold? Drink / Edible? Eat with a fork / hands? What was the main flavor? Color?

[@con3728]

Cmon there’s people trying to help you find it

[@NothingButSilicone]

Come on don’t do us like this! Give us information. We can solve this together!

Hi! I'm from Moldova:) please give a description of what you remember and when was it:)

[@mr.iforgot3062]

We have the exact same thing in Iowa. Except it has ice cream and cow milk.

[@adolfolerito6744]

I tried this in Peleliu some years back and it was very tasty, although being Italian I couldn’t avoid comparing it to a kind of B-tier panna cotta with caramel, probably because tofu has the same consistency but it’s completely flavorless.

@@JeanineOlivia I’ll have to ask my Mom and get back to you. She had a habit of describing food to us so whenever we heard it we had no clue what people were talking about. Lol.

In India we this called as "junnu" (similar) to tofu That white Pebbles/pearls on top and bottom of your dessert that you called......those are called "sabjhaginjalu" in south States of India....and that brown sugary substance is "teepi pannakam".

I love tofu. I recently bought a bag of the Nigari powder that can get used to turn soy milk into silken tofu and I haven’t tried yet but I’m definitely down. I have this memory of this one time I was down to panhandling in Seattle and this one lady gave me her favorite combo which had milk tea with pudding and bubbles. So it was honestly kind of similar to this but although I think this was soft egg pudding. Yeah that really gave me so much hope and light at the time that this woman went back inside the store and really got me her favorite with 2 fixins in there. Type of hospitality I long to be able to share.
