Aww so sweet of you ! Hope you like it .. Actually Nylon sago tastes better . But here we don’t get tat variety
Thanks Veena . I actually wanted to try this but was lazy to grind and tried the other one .. Next time will try this . And your idlies are spongy as well .
I only find one variety of sago pearls in Indian stores and using it for idlies, murukku and punugu. How different is nylon sago from the ones we get here?
Hi Veena , Nylon sago is thinner and translucent than the normal version of Sago. We used to get it in Bangalore . Even I dint find tat variety in US.. Above are the pics for your reference .
