Steps:
- Place tapioca and coconut milk in a medium saucepan and let soak for 30 minutes.
- Add sugar and salt to the tapioca mixture, and heat over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Reduce heat to low and let simmer very gently for 15 minutes until tapioca pearls are transparent and the mixture has thickened. Be sure to stir frequently so that the tapioca doesn't stick to the bottom. Once done, remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
- Pour into cups and place in the refrigerator until completely chilled, at least 3 hours. The pudding will thicken after refrigeration.
- Serve with sliced fresh fruit/fruit puree and coconut chips if desired.
- Tapioca is best the same day it's made, but will keep for up to 3 days in the fridge.

COCONUT TAPIOCA PUDDING
I have always loved tapioca pudding and coconut, so this dish is perfect for me! One time, for a 'Southeast Asian Cuisine Night,' I served this as dessert alongside pho, spring rolls, and steamed dumplings. For a Southeast Asian touch, top the pudding with chopped mango or chopped peanuts.

COCONUT TAPIOCA IN PAPAYA BOWL
Coconut tapioca is one of my favorites of all time. I also love the tropical fruit papaya. When I combined these two things together, it did make my day. If you are not a big fan of papaya, you may skip the papaya bowl; coconut tapioca by itself would be a good treat to your guests too!

Steps:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Stir the tapioca pearls into the boiling water. Reduce heat to medium to keep water at a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently to keep the pearls from sticking to the bottom of the pot, until the water becomes thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain. Transfer the tapioca to a large bowl and cover with cold water.
- Refill the pot with fresh water and bring to a boil. Once the tapioca pearls have cooled, drain the cool water from the bowl and transfer the tapioca to the boiling water. Remove the pot from the heat; cook and stir again until the pearls are clear, 5 to 7 minutes; drain. Transfer the tapioca to a clean bowl and cover with cold water. If the pearls are not completely clear, repeat the process until they are.
- Pour the coconut milk into a small saucepan and place over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Once the coconut milk is simmering, stir the tapioca into the coconut milk until the pearls are evenly coated. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely; spoon into the papaya halves. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Tips:
- To achieve the best texture for your tapioca pearls, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them to soften and become chewy.
- When cooking the tapioca pearls, be sure to use a large pot with plenty of water. This will prevent them from sticking together and ensure that they cook evenly.
- Once the tapioca pearls are cooked, rinse them with cold water and drain them well. This will help to remove any excess starch and prevent them from becoming sticky.
- For a refreshing and flavorful salad, chill the tapioca pearls before serving. You can also add other ingredients such as fruits, nuts, and vegetables to create a variety of different salads.
- Tapioca pearls can also be used in desserts such as puddings, pies, and cakes. They can also be added to smoothies and other beverages for a chewy texture.
