Taro ball is a famous snack of the Han nationality, which belongs to the traditional dessert of Fujian and Taiwan. Steam the taro and press it into a puree, add sweet potato powder (tapioca starch) and water, mix well to form a dough, knead it into strips and cut into small pieces, boil it in boiling water until it rises and remove the taro balls. Adding sweet potato powder is more Q, but using cornstarch is softer. Similar foods include mung bean balls with mung bean paste instead of taro paste. Both are one of the famous snacks in Jiufen, Taiwan.

Tips:

1) The water content of sweet potato, purple potato and taro is different, so when adding tapioca flour to the mashed potato when making noodles, add tapioca powder slowly, little by little. Add a part first and try it. Basically, it will not stick to your hands and the surface will be smooth. If you add too much, the dough will crack. Also pay attention when adding water and add as little as possible.
2) Pumpkin and other starch-rich foods can also be used to make small rounds.

Boiled taro balls can be eaten in rock sugar water or mixed with different sugar water according to personal preference. In Taiwan and Fujian, many desserts, such as bean curd and shaved ice, can be eaten with taro balls and sweet potato balls on top. It can be said that there are many ways to eat, and there are many variations. Eating iced taro balls in summer will relieve the heat, and in winter, eating taro balls will be warm and cold. Making taro balls at home is simple, convenient, clean and hygienic. The weather is getting hot. You can try it out. Don’t forget to take a photo and hand in your homework after you learn it~~ I’m Chef An, a funny foodie, very much. I like Gourmet Jie, a food sharing platform.
