Bingsu (Korean Halo-Halo) | Korean Food Week

In this Tagalog‑English tutorial, Lesley Pascual‑Bartolo demonstrates how to make the milk‑ice (ice‑milk) base for Korean bingsu, a dessert similar to halo‑halo but featuring a creamy, yellow‑colored frozen milk mixture. She explains the key difference between traditional halo‑halo and bingsu, then walks through two possible milk‑ice formulas: (1) 1 cup water + 1 cup evaporated milk, or (2) 2 cups fresh milk + ¼ cup condensed milk. After mixing, the mixture is poured into a plastic container, fitted with a funnel (embudo) to avoid mess, and frozen—ideally overnight—for a ready‑to‑use base. The frozen block is broken up using a blender, food processor, or ice shaver, achieving a smooth texture. The finished milk‑ice is served with red beans, and the participants comment on the refreshing taste and chewy bean texture. The video concludes with typical YouTube calls to action: like, share, subscribe, and follow on social media.
