Sweet soup made from pomelo skin
Pomelo is a healthy fruit but we are not talking about its sweet and watery segments today. We are talking about the thrown-away part after you peel your pomelo, which is the pomelo skin. To be specific, it is the white, cotton-like underbelly of a pomelo skin. This is an unbelievable ingredient for a wonderful bowl of “chè bưởi” (pomelo sweet soup). However, to make an edible sweet soup from pomelo skin, you need to soak the skin in salt water and then squeeze all the bitterness out. Then the skin is cooked with sugar, green beans and coconut milk. The finished product is a mouthwatering soup with a gentle touch of sugar, a perfect dish for this crazily hot summer.Vietnam strange food from jackfruit unused parts
