@carbon82 ... do we mix the juice with thr paste then put in frig for 2 hrs .Wont the paste become hard

 

Yes, mix the pineapple juice with paste evenly and left it in the fridge for about 2 hours, but do cover it with cling wrap.

 

If you don't leave it in fridge, it will be a little too wet and soft to handle, and the juice will not blend in completely with the paste. This is from our trial and error...  [:p]

I no pro, but practice make perfect! [nod] (Have been baking our own tarts for the past 3 years [:p]).

 

The pineapple paste is not the sweet type (which is cheaper than the one I got), but neither is it sourish, quite neutral. Poon Huat has 3 types of pineapple paste:

- Sweet type

- Sour type

- Premium (the one I bought)

OIC.
