The “Sago” tapioca pearls (Sago is the brand from the Philippines, yet they are tapioca pearls.) say to cook and soak twice for long periods of time on the package. Do I need to do that first or just follow your directions? They are a tan color, not white. What do you recommend?
Rasa Malaysia
You can follow the instructions on your packaging.

Is it necessary to have pomelo pulps? Just have mango sago dessert.
Admin
Would be better.
Sharon Juarez
What can be used instead of pomelo and grapefruit because they interfere with drug prescriptions?
Rasa Malaysia
You can skip or use mandarin orange.
