It's been really hot lately, hasn't it? Why not make some grass jelly to cool off? It's super easy! Even though you can easily buy ready-made grass jelly at the store now, I still prefer making things with my own hands.

Steps

1

I use a 1.8 oz (50 g) packet of Thuận Phát grass jelly powder, which comes with a small tube of banana extract.
2

Prepare 4 1/4 cups (1 liter) of filtered water. Gradually pour in the grass jelly powder while stirring to dissolve. Once dissolved, let the mixture sit for at least 5 minutes, then place it on the stove. Cook while stirring so the grass jelly cooks evenly. Add 3 tablespoons of sugar if you prefer it less sweet like I do, or adjust the sugar to your taste.
3

Cook until the mixture thickens. You don't need to bring it to a boil—if you do, it might burn, so I avoid that. Add the banana extract and stir well; it smells amazing! You can pour the mixture into a mold and let it set, or leave it in the pot until it firms up. Once set, cut it into cubes and serve with sweetened condensed milk, chilled, and enjoy!
