Can i store the raw boba pearls?
Yes, I believe u can freeze them. And simply blanch them whenever u want to cook them
Do we need to braise again after blanching?
Yes need to braise
I’m so happy! These came out so well! I think I used the wrong kind of sugar because the boba pearls came out a light brown in the end but these are delicious! I like them more than the prepackaged kind! I absolutely will be making these again! It was kind of difficult to make the dough since it was very sticky for me ?. Rolling the boba pearls also took a bit but it was worth every minute. I ended up braising the boba in a honey water sugar mixture instead and they were delicious! Thank you so much for this recipe!
I m happy to know about this! ??
Hi. I'm wanting to sell uncooked boba pearls in packet. How can I keep its shape? Any suggestion?
Just roll it into the shape that u want. And to packed them and selling it would require more extensive research to find out the moisture composition of the pearls. Since they are uncooked and kept in room temperature, they are more prone to spoilage.
You will need to do more research and test to find out on this.
Hi, im student from food technology and we just make an experiment about the uncooked bobba. you just need to put the bobba in freezer after you finish make a bobba. Before you put in a freezer, make sure you coated the bobba with the tapioca starch so the bobba will not stick to each other. We have been frozen the bobba for a two weeks and when we want to boil it, it turned out very well and chewable like original.
how about putting them at room temperature? any suggestion it will not rotten/spoilt?
thanks
they will spoil quicker in room temp, at least keep them in the fridge
Can i use white sugar instead of brown sugar?
Yes u may, but the taste wouldn’t be good
Hi! Am i able to use palm sugar instead of brown sugar? Thanks! :)
Hey Renee! Yes, you can do so. But i am not very sure about the sweetness. You will need to find out yourself.
not only sugar, you also can use fresh fruits to make boba. I tried it, work like a charm, and here is the link for you;

Hey! Yes of course.
can i use cornstarch instead of tapioca flour? thanks!
Hey, unfortunately no. Only tapioca flour can produce such texture.
Hello! I did test this out with glutinous rice flour, and it worked like a charm! It tasted a bit stale, but it cooked very quickly and wasn't too bad.
Hey
How long will the braised boba pearls lasted if keep in the fridge?
Does it need to be braised?
Many thanks
Braised boba pearls can last about 5 days in yr fridge. Uncooked boba pearls if kept frozen can last a few months
How do I apply this if I plan on using them for commercial purposes? And can I use muscovado sugar for this? Thanks!
Hey! U can use any sort of sugar to substitute the brown sugar. As to commercialize them, is either u reduce their moisture content to 5% which allow you to store them in room temperature conditions or you add preservative to prevent mould growth.
Another way is to freeze those uncooked boba pearl but frozen products will require most cost in storage and delivery.
If you’re gonna ask next how to reduce the moisture content or which preservatives to use, I have not idea on that, that would require a great deal of research and test to find out.
I hope what I know could give u a head start to your plans.
Hi Ethan! I tried this Recipe and I find it the best ever tried for boba! I think that if some have to sticky dough that they haven’t let the mixture long enough on the heat. Mine was a little bit sticky but with some starch on my working place and hands the dough became beautiful. Never had such an amazing consistency before. Unfortunately the dark brown sugar sold here in Italy doesn’t leave my pearls black but brown instead. But the taste and texture is amazing. Now I’ll try the fruity ones next time!
Thank you so much for this recipe
Good to know!
hello! I have a problem with my boba dough. The dough would not form, instead it starts hardening and crumble. What have I done wrong? D:
Hello! I believe this is because the dough was left out for too long. If it is exposed to air with no water for too long it will dry up. I suggest covering the dough with a slightly wet cloth when you aren't working with it. If it's already crumbling, add a bit of water and reshape the balls.
