What is the best che(a vietnamese dessert) for Americans?

Question

I have a project to bring food to school and people need to sample it. They have no clue what che is and I need something simple but something exotic for them to try. I NEED HELP!!

Answer 1

I have no idea either. I think you can just bring about any kind because they would all taste foreign to people. Hmm... how about chè ba màu (three-colored chè) ??

Answer 2

I don't know what che is.....I can't even find it online.

But I know the recipe of a Vietnamese flan

7 eggs

1 cup coconut milk or 1 cup heavy cream

1 cup dark brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon each of powdered cinnamon, ginger, anise, cloves

1 teaspoon baking soda

Melt brown sugar with coconut milk, in a sauce pan and boil for 15 minutes. Add spices and baking soda, strain, remove mixture from heat and let stand for 5 min

Add slightly beaten eggs in a steady stream and beat the mixture until smooth with a wooden spatula. Pour through fine strainer into a preheated greased loaf pan 8" x 3" x 4". Bake uncovered for 20 to 30 min in 350 F oven.

Remove from oven and let the cake stand for 15 min before removing from pan. Chill in refrigerator for 3 hrs.

Serve cold

OR

Casava Sweet

This type of sweet and sticky snack is usually served with a cup of light jasmine tea. More like an Indian helva than a cake, this recipe can also make using sweet potatoes or yams in place of the cassava.

To prepare the cassava for grating, use a sharp knife to slit the whole length of the root and then carefully peel off the skin. Simply grate the peeled root using a coarse grater.

Ingredients : Serves 6-8



1/2 teaspoon Butter, for greasing

350 ml Coconut milk

115 g Palm sugar

2.5 ml Ground aniseed

1/4  teasp.Salt

675 g Cassava root, peeled and grated

Preheat the oven to 190oC/375oF/Gas 5 and grease the baking dish with some butter.

In a bowl, whisk the coconut milk with the sugar, aniseed and salt, until the sugar has dissolved.

Beat the grated cassava root into the coconut mixture and pour into the greased baking dish.

Place it in the oven and bake for about 1 hour, or until nicely golden on top.

Leave the sweet to cool in the dish before serving.
