Black tapioca, commonly known as tapioca pearls, is a starch-based ingredient derived from cassava root and often used in desserts or beverages like bubble tea. Originating from Southeast Asia and Taiwan, these chewy pearls gain their distinct black color from caramelized sugar or food coloring added during production. They mainly consist of carbohydrates, offering a quick energy source but minimal protein, fat, or micronutrients. Generally gluten-free, black tapioca can be a suitable option for individuals with celiac disease. However, it’s essential to consume it moderately due to its high calorie and sugar content, especially in prepared dishes or drinks. Though low in fiber and other essential nutrients, black tapioca shines through its versatility in texture and ability to complement various recipes, connecting modern culinary trends to traditional Asian cuisines.
