<< review queue entry 59106 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%84%9B%E7%8E%89%E5%AD%90 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aiyu_jelly "The main use of this plant is its fruit seed, which is harvested to make aiyu jelly (known as ice jelly in Singapore). The jelly, when combined with sweeteners and lemon or lime juice is a favorite snack in Taiwanese night markets, Taiwanese farmers' markets and Singapore hawker centres." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlMgV5EZdnU&list=TLveDFOuTILJAyNDA3MjAxNg LA @ 愛玉 and 愛玉冰 M @ 愛玉 and 愛玉凍 Apparently, the "seeds" are actually achenes ~ Jelly fig (Ficus awkeotsang Makino), a cultivar exclusive to Taiwan, is a woody vine that grows in tropical and subtropical regions of the country. The aqueous extracts of jelly fig achenes have been used to prepare jelly curd, which is an ingredient used in a summer drink popular in local markets. http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0150490 |
