Black Grass Jelly

Black Grass Jelly

　　Heshan City in Guangxi is one of China’s largest production bases for grass jelly (mesona jelly). The product is not only popular domestically but also exported to numerous countries and regions such as Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, where it enjoys widespread consumer acclaim. This product can be combined with an appropriate amount of cane sugar, honey, or other preferred beverages, along with sufficient water, and stirred evenly with white grass jelly until no granular bits remain. Then bring it to a boil. Let it cool to room temperature until it solidifies into a clear, transparent, tender, and smooth jelly-like consistency before serving. It tastes even better when served chilled.
