Cooking Red Bean Soup(Desert)

[David]

I came to know that in order to have the red bean split open, place a porcelain spoon inside while cooking. What is the reason?

[Iceklsy]

place porcelain spoon ?

 

that means to COOK the spoon ?

 

i donno i still dare to drink the soup or not..

 

[UncleWolve]

heat transfer

[UncleWolve]

ya man..all the sai (or SH.IT) in the spoon all ooze out

[Key_word07]

When u put the spoon inside..the boiling bubbles will push the spoon to move around inside the pot and hence the beans will be able to cook more throughly and even...if dun put spoon usually you can get uneven cook red bean soup..some are cooked..some chao tar..and some uncook!

[AngelEye]

that is correct. thats what my grandma says, same with cooking porriage, the spoon inside will stir for u, so nothing is stick to the bottem of the pan

alamak, is easier to push the bean or the spoon considering the spoon is bigger and heavier..

[Nkps]

is easier to buy outside and eat. no need to wash also... not that expnsive anyway.

considering opening a dessert stall lah...
