Bob's Red Mill Small Pearl Tapioca, 24oz (Pack of 4) - Non GMO, Vegan, Paleo Friendly, Kosher

we make it all the time love it better than the instant

Bob's has changed their recipe. Following the new instructions, it takes over an hour to cook on the stove top. This results in a very hard product that could be used for concrete foundation. I like mine more creamy. After three attempts, I have a recipe that results in a creamy pudding. In a medium sauce pot, soak 1/2 cup of pearls in 3/4 cup of water for 10-15 minutes. Do not drain excess liquid. Add all ingredients from the package recipe into the pot; 4 cups milk, 1/2 Cup Sugar, 2 Eggs, 1/8 tsp. Salt, 1 tsp Vanilla. No need for the cream. Wisk all together over medium to high heat. Stir constantly. As the mix approaches a boiling point, the mix will thicken and the pearls will be visible on the surface. At the first sign of a low boil, remove from the heat and pour into serving bowls. Do not let the mix achieve a boil! Now we have a creamy, yummy dessert. Serves 2 in our home but you could get 4 nice servings.

I've been buying the small red box of the other brand of tapioca for literally 40 years. I always make at least a triple batch, so a small box doesn't last long, and is getting expensive and hard to find! I saw these on Amazon, and this brand makes so many good products, I bought the four pack. These are small, whole pearl, not fragmented pieces like the other brand, so they need to soak a bit longer, but they cook up and taste great. If I wanted smaller bits I could always use pulse on my food processor. And did I mention the amazing price? These were less than HALF of the price per ounce of the brand. If you are looking for a high quality, brand name tapioca, buy this.

This is so delicious and has turned into a huge habit here at my house!

Pricier than some other brands online but you can taste the quality difference so worth it
