Coconut bar

Coconut bar is a refrigerated dim sum dessert found in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southern China and in overseas Chinatowns. It is sweet and has a soft, gelatin-like texture but is white in color rather than translucent like gelatin. It is sometimes referred to as coconut pudding.

Main ingredientsCoconut milk; wheat starch and corn starch, or agar and gelatin

Preparation

The dessert is made of coconut milk (preferably freshly made) and set with a mixture of tang flour (wheat starch) and corn starch, or a mixture of agar agar and gelatin. It is sweetened, and sometimes sprinkled with desiccated coconuts. The texture varies from silky springy (if gelatin and agar agar is used as setting agent) to creamy in texture (if wheat starch and corn starch are used to set the dessert) depending on individual preparations. The standard dim sum version has no filling.[1]

gollark: I tried:- looking at the "network" section in browser debug tools - nothing for the websocket appears- running it through mitmproxy - no request appears for the websocket thingy- capturing it with wireshark with TLS decryption on - inconclusive, I can't really figure out how to work that properly
gollark: Anyone know why all my websocket stuff goes "can't establish a connection to the server wss://whatever" in firefox? Specifically websocket stuff on my server, other things appear to work fine. It works in chromium or wscat, and the individual applications work fine in firefox if they're not behind my reverse proxy.
gollark: Another useful one is transmitting shopping lists from the future, so you can get things *before* you run out!
gollark: One of many practical everyday uses for time machines.
