Bingfen

Chinese dessert From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bingfen (Chinese: 冰粉; pinyin: bīngfěn), also called ice jelly, is a Chinese dessert native to Southwest China in provinces such as Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan. It is served as a bowl of iced transparent jelly, traditionally made from the seeds of the Nicandra physalodes plant. In modern times, bingfen can also be made from konjac root.[1][2] The jelly can be topped with toppings like haw flakes and wolfberries.[3][4] It is commonly sold in the summertime as a street food.[3][5]
