50LBS of Rice: September 26, 2011

Let me introduce you to one of my favorite Vietnamese desserts; it’s called Che Chuoi. It’s bananas, sago pearls, and mystery ingredients in a sweet coconut based cream. Usually, it is served with peanuts. Despite its strange appearance, the dessert is quite yummy! I am not sure how to describe its texture or flavor, but for certain it has a strong banana flavor and is extremely sweet. I forgot to take a picture of it again, so here is a generic internet pic of this deliciousness (next week I will make sure to take a picture):
