How long does it have to be on the stove till it thickens
About 2-3 minutes. It works similarly to cornstarch so you’ll see it start to thicken up fairly quickly when heat is applied
doesn’t boba usually use muscavato sugar ???
ifvthey do is there a kosher version
It can but it’s not readily available and I wanted to use a more available option. The flavor with the brown sugar here is similar. There are kosher versions like India tree but I don’t believe they are readily available in most grocery stores
Where is the matcha from? Did you make it or is it bought. PLS LEMME KNOW ASAP x
I usually buy it!
check with your rabbi but according to the CRC so long as it is only tea in the ingredients it does not need a hechsher

that being said there are plenty of great kosher options. Look for ceremonial grade for the cleanest and best flavor
Is this the regular recipe or did you revise it to be klp
This is the regular recipe I make year round
YUM
I love Shushy
Thank you!!! feeling is mutual <3
YUMYUMYUMYUMYUM i need to try this like ASAP
Hi thanks so much for your vids! just wondering where you get the tapioca starch from?
Gefen sells tapioca starch 🙂 https://amzn.to/4cnssWV
yayyyyy ur back im so excited!! cant way 2 try this!!!!
Did the first step- mixing it in the pot- and it came out all crumbly. Not sure where I went wrong.😑
Oh no! Did you add all of it at the same time?
Adding in a bit of the flour to thicken the mixture and then adding in the rest of it helps to avoid this issue! Once your adding in the tapioca flour a bit at a time you can stop when the mixture achieves the texture your looking for – which is that the balls hold shape but still are a bit tacky to touch

Looks so yummy is it just dough balls or does it somehow give the boba popping in your mouth and the liquid comes out texture
Good question!!
Popping boba is a little different. It’s made by dropping fruit juice mixed with a chemical sodium alginate into a solution mixed with calcium chloride. It creates a sphere with the liquid trapped inside. This is a relatively newer kind of way to make boba. The original way to make boba like we show here originated in Taiwan and is just chewy tapioca balls, similar to a mochi texture and it isn’t filled with anything but it tastes sweet because it’s boiled in the brown sugar syrup. The first kind of boba you can find fairly easily in some kosher grocery stores or online purveyors but the tapioca pearls are super hard to find kosher for some reason, so we made them!
I feel like you’re the only person who answers directly to the person not the admin or someone else
I really love getting to engage with the people who watch my videos!
There was a while when they used to use beetle shell derivatives to color a lot of things – I’m not sure about lobsters. But yes! That’s often why it couldn’t be certified or it’s made in a plant that processes a bunch of other things that may not be kosher
So cool to see how boba is made!!! Definitely something that I want to try!!! Thanks so much, I love this show!!! Please keep more coming soon!!!
I’m so excited that you enjoyed it! It was so much fun to make it (twice) for all of yall! Thank you for watching! Can’t wait to share more soon!
