“Just make Mango Sago Dew.”

It was widely received and tasted good. It was sweet and savory.

“I’m afraid that someone is allergic to mango. You should let them know in advance when you deliver it to them. Otherwise, the consequences will be quite troublesome.”

“Alright!”

Zhou Huangya nodded in agreement.

Xu Le washed the mango surface, peeled off the skin, and started to remove the flesh.

Zhang Liang put his hands on his hips and said, “I think there’s something missing.”

“A pomelo, just buy a big one.”

“Sure.”

He immediately went out to buy pomelo.

Xu Le grabbed the rock sugar and put it in the water. He started a small fire to cook it. After he finished slicing all the mango meat, he stuffed it into the blender and started to grind it.

“Add coconut syrup and a small amount of white sugar inside and make it into mango paste.”

Xu Le said to the camera, “Mango Sago Dew is a Hong Kong-style dessert. It’s very simple to prepare. Everyone can try it at home. As long as you follow my instructions, the failure rate will definitely be 0.”

“The sago dew will first be cooked then stewed. It’s not difficult to cook it, but don’t cook it directly over a big fire. Otherwise, there will be a white hard core forming inside. It’s just like raw meat and will taste awful.”

He sliced a few mangoes into small pieces and placed them aside.

“The sugar syrup just now has been boiled and the rock sugar inside has completely melted. Everyone, be careful. When making desserts, there must not be any oil in the pot. Make sure that it is absolutely cleaned.”

The sugar syrup that had just been poured out of the pot was very hot. Xu Le took a large amount of cold water and cooled the pot down using another pot.

“When the mango paste is ready, pour it out. Pour the milk and coconut milk in the ratio of 1: 1 and stir it evenly. Everyone can adjust it according to their own preference. If you want a stronger milk taste, put more

milk.”

As Xu Le spoke, he used a spoon to add a few spoonfuls of sugar syrup. He said, “The dessert must be sufficiently sweet, but it cannot be too much. Otherwise, the sweetness will destroy the balance of the overall

texture and suppress the taste of mango.”

After adding all of them and stirring them evenly, Xu Le picked up a spoon and took a sip. The mango taste was strong, sweet but not overwhelming, and the sweetness was just nice.

He placed the carved glass bowl that was specially used to store desserts on the table and took out a big tub of ice cream from the freezer area. He said, “I just realized that there’s ice cream inside. This is added to so

that the plating will look nice. This flavor is… vanilla. It won’t be too strange to add in. Everyone can add fresh milk at home. You can also add coconut, pearls, and so on.”

The round and smooth ice-cream ball was placed at the bottom of the bowl. The glutinous rice in the can was also rolled into a ball. With one white and one red ball, it looked ike mandarin ducks playing in the water, as

the colors intertwined with each other, making it extremely beautiful.

Zhang Liang rushed up from outside in a panic. After putting down the pomelo that he had bought, he said in surprise, “I only bought a fruit and you’re already done?”

“Well, it’s not difficult to begin with. It’s just that it’s a little troublesome to process the ingredients.” Xu Le raised his eyebrows and reminded him, “Quickly break open the pomelo and add the pomelo bits in.”

“Alright.”

Zhang Liang responded. After washing his hands and the surface of the pomelo, he was about to cut it when he was stopped by Xu Le.

“Wait, are you going to cut it from top to bottom?”

“What else? Isn’t that how you cut pomelo?”

“That’s not wrong.”

Xu Le stepped forward and gestured with his hands. “But there is a better way. We can turn the pomelo horizontally and cut it in the middle. This way, it will be easier to peel the skin later and it will be easier to remove

the granules.”

“Is that so?” Zhang Liang did as he was told skeptically. “Isn’t it the same no matter how you cut it?”

Very soon, he was slapped in the face by reality. After he cut it horizontally, not only was the outer skin easier to peel off, but the skin shreds inside were also easily removed. Very soon, the pomelo granules would be

easily extracted.

“Wow, it’s true! When did you discover this method?”

“I found it occasionally when I was preparing some fruit plates.”

After placing the ice cream and glutinous rice balls on the plate, he added mango balls to the side.

At this moment, Xu Le had finished stewing the rice in the pot. He used a sieve net to wash it under the cold water and said, “There will be a layer of sticky film outside the cooked sago dew. After washing it clean, they

will be smooth and bright.”

After placing the sago dew, Xu Le sifted the mango paste again to remove the granules and fibers inside, ensuring that the texture would be smoother. He added it to the bowl, revealing the top of the ice cream and

glutinous rice. Then, he put in a piece of red pomelo and a piece of mint leaf. A traditional Mango Sago Dew was completed.

Zhou Huangya stuck her head out and asked, “What about the price? I’ll get the manager over.”

Bai Xiaoming was still socializing with the other people outside and was immersed in the conversation. He was forcefully dragged into the kitchen by Zhou Huangya. When he saw the bowl of Mango Sago Dew on the

table, he couldn’t help but feel thirsty.

He said, “It’s done so quickly? It looks delicious. Set the price at a cheaper price. After all, there’s no shortage of fruits and seafood here. | think 76 baht is fine.”

With a generous amount of mango, glutinous rice, and ice cream, it was considered cheap to set at this price. Xu Le nodded and said, “It will be 15 RMB per serving. That should be enough. We can recoup our cost

price.”

Zhou Huangya was enticed from looking at it and said a little embarrassed. “Do I get a share?”

“Of course. We’ve made so much. Let everyone come in and have a taste.”

Xu Le waved his hand generously and said, “We’ll go out and promote it later. The weather is hot, so it’s best to sell it immediately. Otherwise, the ice cream will melt and affect the taste.”

“Okay.”

Zhou Huangya could not wait to pick up a bowl. She gently pressed down the piece of ice cream with a spoon and mixed it with the soup before putting it into her mouth. The mango was sweet and fragrant with the

clear sweetness of coconut milk. The two flavors mixed together and it was indescribably wonderful.

She said, “It’s not sweet!”

When Alex heard that Xu Le had prepared his share, he picked up the bowl and took a big bite. However, he felt that it was not satisfying enough, so he put down the spoon and drank directly from the bowl. When he

heard Zhou Huangya’s comment, he frowned and said, “The taste is just right.”

“You’ve misunderstood.” Xu Le said, “The Chinese people’s highest evaluation of desserts is that it’s not sweet.”

The other meaning of “not sweet” was, of course, that the taste was just right and would not be too sweet to suppress the fruit’s original sweetness.

“Oh.”

Alex raised his head and drank more than half a bowl of Mango Sago Dew. He smacked his lips and said, “I can taste coconut milk and milk, but it did not conceal the taste of the main ingredient. Instead, it’s just perfect.

The glutinous rice, sago dew and mango all has the unique chewiness. I accidentally ate the mint leaves just now and it’s refreshing. The ice cream is like a surprise. When I occasionally taste it in my mouth, it’s

especially refreshing.”

He finished his evaluation happily and said, “This is the best dessert I’ve ever had. It’s much better than that pearl milk tea.”

Zhou Huangya made a cross gesture with her arm and said half-jokingly, “I do not allow you to insult pearl milk tea.”

Then, she went to promote the desserts for everyone. Everyone loved mangoes so much that they could not stop eating it. Those who did not want to eat it would find it smelling strange.

However, as soon as they heard that it was Xu Le who made it, they quickly snatched all the desserts away.

Xu Le left the last bowl and sat at the table..
