When I was talking with one of my foodie buddies in Indonesia about making this pudding, she was asking if this one is the bule or Asian version. FYI, bule means Caucasian in Indonesian slang term :). I told her that I made the bule one. Asian puddings have jelly texture and are usually added with agar agar or konyaku jelly powder.
