Love seeing you recipes! Your dedication to teaching so many different techniques is impressive. To all the negative people in the comments - just because you don’t like something or wouldn’t make it at home, doesn’t mean others won’t enjoy it. Keep these recipes coming! ☺️

I really like the taste of grass jelly! As a child, I would make this for our family. It was in powdered form - added water, cooked in pot over stove and chilled. We ate it with maple syrup and sometimes added milk too!

I've had the pleasure of having Meet Fresh's/鲜芋仙's sweet-grassy-beany-nutty-starchy-milky shaved ice desserts 10-15 times and gosh those bowls are so delicious, FILLING, and just fun to eat!! Meet Fresh deserves all the hype. Don't be fooled by all the "healthy" toppings/add-ins like I was the first few times I had it. It certainly has way more fiber and probably protein than all American desserts that I'm familiar with (and thus is extremely filling), but there's different forms of sugar mixed throughout, and everything is swimming in a sweet, cold milky ice-cream, so it's truly a decadent (and nourishing!) dessert.

Seeing this process at home, makes me really appreciate all properly done shaved ice I’ve ever had. 🙏🏽 I would watch all the topping combinations content that you’re willing to bless us with 🙋🏽‍♀️ Thanks for the virtual treat, Mandy!

Yeah, I had no idea how laborious putting an entire one of these bowls together was! Making it at home is quite the feat!!

Totally new to me but watching Mandy is a great education. 🙂

I love Mandy Lee. Even if I never make this it’s a window into a cuisine I’m not exposed to. Fascinating and I bet it’s delicious. But it sure looks like a project!

What a gift to show us this process!! I LOVE chewy desserts and this has definitely whet my appetite. I'll need to track down the ingredients and give it a try. Looks so fun to make and freakin delicious. Thank you!!

fascinating. I might take some inspiration from this to turn vegetables into desserts.

I would watch anything you produce, especially 4 hour video

And it was fascinating seeing a taro!! I always wondered what one looked like! I do love its flavor in various desserts!

Absolutely love Mandy on food52!!

I've never seen anything like this and that makes me so excited. I hope I can try it once day!

This looks crazy. Unique is definitely the word.

Grass Jelly is my favorites love it 👍👍👍

Wow this is so much work. Go Mandy! Thanks for the recipe (Lucky me I live walking distance to one...)

Really good stuff!

This looks like a fun project to try! My daughter is fascinated by Asian desserts all kinds and would like the “q” of this.

Yes! Grass Jelly curious. Would it be weird/culturally problematic to swap canned Cranberry Jelly for the Grass Jelly? Certainly different flavors, but I want to experiment. And definitely would watch Mandy for hours. So much knowledge. True treasure. 🥰

I’d like to try making those yam balls because I have the ingredients to do that. But I don’t have the other ingredients for the other parts of the recipe. What else would you serve the yam balls with? Ice cream or pudding or Ramen?

Try it with ice cream i can imagine the texture and flavor of both will work well. Im not sure about ramen but i suggest try it with soba with kakiage + yam balls as a toppings

Super weird (to my norms anyway) and I was laughing when she was trying to grate the jelly. But I would definitely try it.

So what exactly is grass jelly?

Where’s the sweetened red bean or sweetened mung bean? They are musts for me in shave ice. I think grass jelly tastes best thinly sliced into translucent squares. Grated into long strands, the grass jelly might seem too much like worms. Also, traditionally it’s sweetened condensed milk poured on top.

I prefer squares, too. The texture is better and it feels more refreshing.

God I love her

i feel bad because i never could understand most asian deserts. i think i maybe saw a shaved ice place like this once tried one thing from it but it was my first time and didn't enjoy it. i feel like i'm missing out.

Grass jelly tastes like yerba mate, and taro tastes like nutty ube.

Okay just reading that has my white western brain confused...but curious!

I was really hoping we would make the grass jelly from scratch. Sad.

I'll try it if you make it. Make it at home? Hard pass.

Doesn't appeal to me at all. Sorry.
