    All kaya are made from coconut. Hainanese kaya is brown. Nonya kaya is green. Brown from caramlised sugar. Green from pandan. So i don't know what coconut kaya they are referring to.

      Saying coconut kaya is like saying chai tea 😂 Kaya is basically coconut jam so coconut kaya is coconut coconut jam. Just like chai means tea so chai tea is tea tea 😂

    The “lumpy” kaya from Chin Mei Chin is the legit hand made kaya just like how my grandma used to make it over a water bath. Those kaya out there are all machine made these days, so grandma wins hands down 😂

    I think what they meant by coconut kaya is the hainanese style kaya. The orange color comes from caramel you mix in at the end of the cooking. While the pandan style does not have caramel + added pandan coloring made it so much greener. Both are coconut milk based, so coconut kaya is very ambiguous term

    Ehhh... Kaya is Coconut + Egg + Sugar.
    The yellow/orange one is the original one. The color sort of depends of what type of eggs is use. The Yellow Yoke and Orange / Red Yoke will affect the color of the final product.
    The Green one is add Pandan to it.
    The Brown one is Gula Melaka added to it but the Gula Melaka can be too dark, if you can get your hands on Corn Syrup. The Brown will not be too intense.

      The brown in Hainanese Kaya which is made by caramelising the sugar thus the colour. Nonya Kaya do not use caramlised sugar but Pandan thus the green colour. Hainanese Kaya don't use gula melaka. And those orangey Kaya in the market is just colouring added.

      Yolk.

    • @simplyme3306

      those yellow/orange ones you see off the shelves are added colourings. If you look at the labels of most of the kaya outside, they all have colouring, flavouring and starch. If you do it at home, the basic ingredients are only pandan leaves (blended in or just cook with), coconut milk, sugar, eggs some with a bit of butter.

    If you guys ever do a part 2 of this, please please please please please go to Geylang Serai Market, Hainan Kaya Toast!! The thick slab of butter and the generous amount of kaya is so addicting and so sinful 😅

    Lumpy kaya is like over-cooked kaya or quick-cooking/direct fire way hence the lumpy eggs and texture. This is in comparison of the slow and low fire over water bath method, which takes hours for the traditional smooth kaya.

    The kaya errrrrrm is questionable (at least to me) & hence, underwhelming as compared to the rest 😅

    Please change your caption to ‘Best Kaya Toast in Central Singapore’ it’s literally in the core of Singapore. What about places like jurong, pasir ris, woodlands or any place out there?
