This one that I bring you today is in the form of pearls white, which when hydrated become transparent and gelatinous.
Furthermore, tapioca does not contain gluten, making it suitable for celiacs.
I will continue to taste it both sweet and salty. A highly recommended dessert.

Today on offer: q...

Waffles for tea

Waffles for tea Hi! I'm here again! I'll be back with a computer and a waffle iron. And is that my computer was "escacharrao" and would not let me do anything, that's why I have not been able to visit any blog or put recipes.
