I love the sweet syrup that you get with fresh tofu pudding, sold from the fresh tofu carts and in some tofu-making shops. It's also the same syrup (I think) that is used to make the wonderful Chinatown-style iced coffee. I'd love to buy a bottle of this syrup, or a can or vat or whatever, but I don't see it (or can't recognize it) in the Chinese groceries and supermarkets, although it must be somewhere, since all these vendors buy it to make their products. Any leads or ideas? As always, many thanks in advance.

Maybe I'll ask them for the recipe next time..... Fri Jun 04 00:39:32 -0700 2004 1122659 0 HLing
