Pearl making - Import export

TAPIOCA PEARLS or BOBA BALLS are a snack that has become very popular thanks to social networks like Instagram. Despite its popularity, few know its origins. It comes from the root of the cassava plant. From this plant, a type of starch is extracted. It is this starch which makes it possible to produce these balls called boba balls or tapioca pearls. They are usually added to tea to obtain the famous bubble tea. It is possible to modify the color and texture by mixing them with other ingredients such as sugar water or honey. To make them sweet, they are usually immersed in a sweet syrup for some time, allowing them to absorb the sweetness of the sugar which they will dissipate in any food to which they are added. However, when used in tea, it is not to enhance flavor, but rather to add texture.
