1. Dry bird's nest

Our dry nests are cleaned in our own workshop and graded by hand, so they only need soaking and a gentle stew.

Soak. Place the nest in a bowl of clean, cool water for 4–6 hours, until soft and fully expanded. Use about 3–5 g of dry nest per person.
Check. Gently tease the strands apart and pick out any tiny bits with tweezers. Drain.
Double-boil. Put the nest in a lidded ceramic pot with water, set it inside a larger pot of simmering water, and stew on low heat for 30–45 minutes.
Sweeten. Add rock sugar in the last 10 minutes. Serve warm or chilled.

Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight — kept sealed and dry, it keeps for years.
Once stewed, keep in the fridge and enjoy within 3 days.

Stewed with rock sugar and fresh pandan leaf, then sealed and sterilised — ready to open and enjoy.

Chilled: refrigerate for a few hours and enjoy cold — refreshing on a hot day.
Warm: stand the unopened bottle in hot (not boiling) water for 5–10 minutes. Please don't microwave the glass bottle.

Unopened: keep in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, up to 18 months from the production date.
After opening: keep in the fridge and finish within 3 days.

Cooked to order in our kitchen and delivered the same day — the same bowls we serve at our shops.

Hot: most of our bird's nest is delivered hot — enjoy it warm as soon as it arrives.
Cold: prefer it chilled? Let it cool, then keep it in the fridge for a few hours and enjoy it as a refreshing cold dessert.
Our coconut, mango and melon bowls are made to be eaten cold and arrive chilled — keep them in the fridge until you are ready.
If your order comes with separate toppings, add them just before eating.

Keep in the fridge and enjoy within 3 days.
To rewarm, pour into a bowl or small pot and warm gently in a hot-water bath or on low heat. Don't boil it hard, and don't microwave it in the bottle.
