Recipe: Fish Maw Peach Gum Dessert Soup

Do you like having tong sui 糖水 (Chinese dessert soup)? Try this Beauty Fish Maw Peach Gum Dessert which comes with not just one, but two collagen-rich ingredients! 

One of the collagen-rich ingredients is peach gum, which is said to be beneficial to both your stomach and skin as well as being able to relieve stress. Furthermore, there is also fish maw, an excellent source of collagen as well as gel protein to help improve your skin tone.

Peach gum needs to be soaked for 10 hours and will expand to 7 to 10x the dry weight. Once it has been soaked, you will need to clean off the impurities (black bits stuck to the peach gum) by using your fingers or tweezers. Cooking time depends on how chewy/soft you like the texture to be, but 20-30 minutes would usually suffice. So, how does peach gum taste like? It has a wonderful QQ texture, a little like gummy bears. 

For the fish maw, it is first steamed for 15 minutes, then soaked overnight until soft. It has a pleasant texture and in case you're wondering, no fishy smell or taste at all. Overall, the sweetness of this tong sui is absolutely spot on and tasted awesome. You can enjoy it hot, chilled or with milk.

Mother’s Day is coming up soon, so gift your mother or wife with this collagen boosting dessert, I’m sure they will appreciate it! After all, who doesn’t love beautiful looking skin right? You can buy it from here: https://shope.ee/9efhR2e9s8
