Place the dark brown sugar and water in a saucepan and let them boil on low heat until there are no lumps. Cook on low heat for ten minutes. Let the syrup cool and transfer to a clean container. Store in the fridge to store.
Place the boba pearl in a large saucepan and add the water. Cook the pearls until it is transparent or, until the white opaque is not present. This process takes a long time to cook. Make sure to mix gently and scrape the bottom, since the pearls tend to stick on the pan.
Place five cups of water in your steamer. When ready, place the silken tofu and steam on high heat for twenty. Remove silken tofu and serve
When ready place the tofu in a small glass and add the syrup and the pearl balls. Add more syrup if needed.
Notes
I recommend using silken tofu to get that texture that we had in the Philippines.
