Basic Ingredients
Agar-agar is a tasteless dried seaweed widely used to thicken soups, sauces and desserts, as it sets without refrigeration. Commonly sold in small packets of fine, white powder, agar-agar is also available in the form of bars, strips and flakes. Powdered gelatine may be used as a substitute although it gives a slightly different texture.
Alkaline water, also known as lye water, is a dilute alkaline solution made from sodium or potassium carbonate that is added in small amounts to noodle, rice dumpling or cake recipes to give a sheen and springy texture to the starch. Small bottles of alkaline water are sold in grocery shops. If you cannot find it, replace with the same amount of baking soda solution (made from 1 part baking soda dissolved in 1 part water).
Banana leaves are used to wrap foods when steaming or grilling them. The moisture within the banana leaf lends texture and flavour to the food, but if you can't find fresh or frozen banana leaves, use aluminium foil. Before using them to wrap food, the leaves should be softened for easy folding, either by pouring boiling water over them in a tub and allowing them to steep for 1 to 2 minutes, or briefly heating them over a low flame.
Coconut cream and coconut milk are widely used in Asian desserts. While freshly pressed coconut milk has more flavour, coconut cream and milk are now available in cans and carton packets that are quick and convenient to use. Consistencies vary from brand to brand, so use your judgment and dilute with water as needed. Thick coconut milk is obtained from coconut cream by diluting by half with water; and thin coconut milk is half again as diluted as thick milk. If preferred, you can make your own from fresh coconuts. For fresh coconut cream, add ½ cup water to the grated flesh of 1 coconut, knead it a few times, then strain it with your fist or using a muslin cloth or cheesecloth. This yields about ½ cup of coconut cream. Thick coconut milk is obtained by adding 1 cup of water to the grated coconut flesh, which will yield about
