Critical Success Points

  • Crush the palm sugar into small pieces so it melts uniformly.
  • Obtain a glutinous rice dough that is supple but not sticky.
  • Properly seal the filling inside the dough to prevent leaks during cooking.
  • Precise cooking: remove the pearls as soon as they rise to the surface.

Safety Warnings

  • Be very careful when opening the coconut with the knife to avoid cuts.
  • Handle the hot syrup with caution to avoid burns.
  • Use gloves or mitts when handling boiling water.
