Brilio.net - Kalang Kaling is often processed into sweets and ice cream. Kolang kaling is liked by many people because of its chewy texture and delicious taste.
Kolang kaling also contains vitamins and fiber which are good for health. However, before being processed into various dishes, palm fruit needs to be washed first. The reason is that newly purchased palm fruit is usually still slimy and gives off a sour aroma and taste. This is usually caused by soaking the palm fruit for too long.
