Lychee Heart

I got the idea for this while listening to Shiina Ringo's "Mango and Papaya" and playing around with shiratama flour. I coupled it with ingredients that are good for the skin.
Lychee berries are packed with antioxidants. White kikurage mushrooms make for a nice flower petal-like topping. Make sure to taper the hearts as much as possible. The springy texture will hold even after cooling if you knead in soy milk. The medicinal spices have a sweet fragrance, as well as a refreshing aftertaste.
Anise...helps with digestion Cinnamon...warms up the body, helps with digestion, and lowers insulin.
Ginger...helps with digestion, reduces swelling, warms up the body, and improves blood flow. For 4 servings. Recipe by witch_cake_mix

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rehydrate the kikurage mushrooms in water.
- 2
Make the syrup. Place the ☆ ingredients together on the burner, bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, boil for 3 minutes, and remove from the burner.
- 3
Stew the Chinese wolfberries, raisins, and white kikurage mushrooms in the syrup, let cool, and then chill in the fridge.
- 4
Combine the soy milk with the shiratama flour, mix well, and let sit for about 15 minutes.
- 5
Add water a bit at a time and knead until smooth once the soy milk is blended in. Make sure not to add too much water. Try to make a ball. If the sides collapse, then you used too much water. Add more flour and knead some more.
- 6
Separate 40%, divide that amount in half, and shape into ovals as shown in the photo.
- 7
Stick the bottom halves together as shown in the photo.
- 8
Taper the ends that are stuck together, and make a plump heart. Dip your fingers into water once the surface has dried, and replenish the moisture.
- 9
Place the heart onto the middle finger of your left hand, and taper with your thumb and index finger. It will become round when boiled, so make it as sharp as possible.
- 10
Line up the hearts with space between each one, and let harden in the fridge for about 20 minutes. You don't need to cover them with plastic wrap. I used a supermarket plastic tray in the photo. Place into a plastic storage bag etc after they harden, and you can freeze them. Boil right before serving.
- 11
Bring water to boil in a pot, and boil the shiratama flour hearts. Take them out into cold water once they float to the surface, and let cool. This is what it should look like after boiling. Pile them up, but taper beforehand for a cool effect.
- 12
Serve together with washed and skinned lychee berries , shiratama flour hearts, the syrup from step 3, white kikurage mushrooms, raisins, and Chinese wolf berries. Top with pine nuts for the finishing touch. The photo shows one serving with 4 lychee berries, and 10 hearts.

Lychee Panna Cotta Lychee Panna Cotta
I received some canned lychee. Rather than just eating them as-is, I thought adding them to panna cotta would bring out their gentle flavor. I made the panna cotta runnier than usual by adjusting the ingredients. For normal panna cotta, use equal amounts of heavy cream and milk.This panna cotta is slightly runny. Let it chill in the fridge for 3 hours. If you'd prefer it to be firmer, reduce the amount of milk to 150 ml. Recipe by daintiest cookpad.japan -

Seven-Colored Tapioca Pearls and Lychee Compote Seven-Colored Tapioca Pearls and Lychee Compote
I was able to get my hands on fresh lychees, which I love, so I decided to make compote out of them. Canned lychee are also delicious, but they are too sweet, and the preservatives that are used concern me... but I am using artificially colored tapioca pearls. I recalculated the ingredient amounts by referring to a homemade canned peach style recipe that I made 2 years ago. I wasn't quite sure how to use the seven-colored tapioca pearls, which are different from the popular black tapioca pearls. I came up with this summery dessert by pairing the seven-colored tapioca pearls and the lychee compote.If you add the tapioca pearls while the lychee compote syrup is still hot, the flavor sinks in and it tastes even more delicious. This will be the key point of this recipe.It's delicious chilled well, but if it's chilled for too long, the tapioca pearls will harden and the texture will not be as good. Calculate when to start chilling them in the refrigerator, so you will be able to serve them at your desired time. Recipe by Munchkin's Mom cookpad.japan -
