Quick & Easy Taho

Step 1

Turn off the heat and allow the pearls to sit in the hot water covered for another 15 minutes until chewy, soft and completely translucent. If you still see a white dot in the center of the sago, let it soak for another 2-5 minutes in the hot water. You can strain the pearls or leave them in the water until you're ready to serve them with a slotted spoon.
