Hello Everyone! This is one of my favorite desserts! It’s Che! (pronounced jehhh) It’s actually really healthy for you too because it’s made of red beans giving you lots of protein, fiber, and vitamins. There’s just over 2 tablespoons of added sugar per cup of Che but my mom and I don’t drink the soup and only eat the beans so we’re not ingesting the majority of the sugar. The sugar does flavor the beans though so I’m definitely eating some sugar! We don’t use any, but adding coconut milk is traditional and makes the che more decadent. Let me know if you have any questions! Note: this was part of our Vietnamese New Years (Tet) Celebration back on Jan 23, 2012!
