How to Cook Tapioca Pearls

I have received emails asking me how to cook tapioca pearls because when they cooked it, the result was not good.
So here is the simple and perfect way of cooking tapioca pearls.

We need:
1/2 kilo Tapioca pearls
3 litres water
uncooked tapioca


Procedure:
1 Put the water in a pot then bring to a boil.
2 When it is boiling, pour the tapioca  and stir very well to avoid it from sticking to each other.


3. Stir occasionally  while simmering until the tapioca pearls are all transparent, this means it's already cooked. Approximately 1 hour.


4. Turn off the heat, then drain and wash in running water.

This is now ready to be used for your recipes

Here are some Tapioca Recipes:
Tapioca Mango salad 
Tapioca Corn salad
Tapioca Mango Delight

  5. Hello Melly. For the big sago, i've tried it like this: boil the sago a few minutes, then turn ot off. leave to cool. then boil it again, then turn it off. 9-4 times or till all the pearls are transparent. then letting it boul for more than an hour. unless you're in a hurry! lol ;)
