pearl tapioca
Starchy translucent spheres
Pearl tapioca consists of small, round balls made from tapioca starch, extracted from cassava root.
The pearls are hard when dry but become soft and chewy when cooked, turning translucent.
They're used in puddings, bubble tea, and desserts: She made pearl tapioca pudding from her grandmother's recipe.
Larger pearls are called boba.
