      I warmed it up with some water and poached an egg in the broth before pouring it over the rice and mixing it up, have had it a few times before (my local Asian grocer sometimes also carries braised eel with “brown sauce” and “spicy brown sauce”). The texture softens a fair bit when you warm it up, but you still get some nice crunch.

    Anise AND licorice powder? That's a bit of a witch's brew! I think they are over-egging the pudding there as those are pretty much the same flavour. The black beans were a surprise too as they are one of my top three condiments, but pretty strong on the palette and have to be used lightly so as not to overshadow the food they are added to. I dunno, Mateo - this might have to be purchased for an exploration.
