Poplar nectar
Overview
Yangzhi Manlu is the signature dessert of almost all Hong Kong-style dessert shops, and its click-through rate is quite high. From the name alone, it is difficult to associate its ingredients, but its artistic conception can make people imagine. The first time I saw this name on the menu, I imagined a picture like this: a dignified and graceful Guanyin Bodhisattva, holding a pure bottle in one hand and waving a willow branch with the other, with drops of nectar spilling into the world. Suddenly the heat disappeared, and a coolness came from the heart. When it is served, the grapefruit pieces and mango dices are clearly red and yellow, floating in the thick pulp, and the sago grains are crystal clear; in the mouth, the fruit pulp is sweet and mellow, the sago is elastic and smooth, and it has the sweetness of mango and the sourness of grapefruit. The taste is not very sweet, but rich in layers, refreshing and refreshing. When I wanted to make one myself and searched for the recipe and method, I suddenly discovered that it is so simple - 1. Boil the sago first and then simmer it, then rinse it with water and chill it. Boiling the sago is the only skill required for this dessert; 2. Remove the mango flesh and core, mix it with milk or light cream and coconut milk to make a pulp, just control the concentration of the pulp; 3. Leave some diced mango and peel some grapefruit pieces - Put it all together and you have this popular, classic, refreshing Hong Kong-style dessert——
