Yee Mai Fu Chuk (Barley & Beancurd)
Made this dessert today but the only failure is the beancurd skin refused to disintegrate to my expectation. Wonder if I’d used the wrong type of beancurd skin. Or maybe I should have mashed up the skin first before cooking it? Do you know? Besides, I used China barley for this cooking (that’s the only type I could find in Chinatown) and in my opinion it doesn’t taste as nice as the Malaysian barley which would give the syrup a starchy taste - mel

i think you might use the wrong beancurb.
what type of beancurb you have used? China Barley? is it different? i never try it before. that time i remember last time i didn’t mashed the beancurb skin ler. hrmm… might need to check it out again.
