With its chewy texture and neutral taste, kolang-kaling is often used for various dishes such as es campur, kolak, pudding, and others. However, although kolang-kaling offers a unique taste and texture, it requires proper processing so that this food ingredient can be consumed. One of the main challenges is the process of cleaning and cooking kolang-kaling which requires special attention to ensure its quality remains good.

When bought in the market, kolang-kaling is usually still raw. It needs to be washed thoroughly to remove dirt and unwanted odors. If only rinsed with water, the sour smell of kolang-kaling still sticks strongly. Well, this smell must be completely gone if you want the kolang-kaling to be more delicious.

In addition, the process of boiling sugar palm fruit also needs to be done carefully. If boiled for too long, sugar palm fruit can become too soft and lose the desired chewy texture. Conversely, if not boiled long enough, the texture will still be hard and uncomfortable to eat.

To make the sugar palm fruit more delicious, you can imitate the cooking trick done by Instagram user @sekolahbaking. Through one of the uploaded videos, the netizen revealed a trick for processing sugar palm fruit so that the results can be soft even though it is only boiled for 5 minutes. Well, this boiling is also practical because you don't need to use various types of spices.

As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @sekolahbaking on Thursday (19/9), the first thing to do is to wash the palm fruit thoroughly. The more often it is washed, the more the mucus that causes the sour smell will disappear. If necessary, wash it thoroughly at least three times with different water.
