- Aiyu jelly is a widely loved dessert in Taiwan, known for its unique way of setting, which relies on the natural pectin extracted from the seeds of the aiyu fruit. This method of making jelly by rubbing the aiyu fruit in water has a history of over 100 years and has traditionally been practiced in the mountainous regions of Taiwan. It is commonly served with lemon or lime juice, making its cool texture and tanginess especially perfect on hot days. However, a food blogger enjoying this exquisite dessert while making a pun about wanting to visit Taiwan seems to have chilled more than just the jelly with their pun.
