List of grass jelly plants
Grass jelly is a gelatinous dessert that is usually made from a plant in the mint family called Platostoma palustre. It and similar desserts can be made from other grass jelly plants.[1] Some are also used for making beverages.[2]
There are two main types, green grass jelly and black grass jelly.[3] Green grass jelly plants include Premna trichostoma and Cyclea barbata, while black (also called janggelan) includes species like P. palustre[3]
In Indonesian, grass jelly plants are called tanaman cincau.[4] In Javanese, these plants are called camcao, juju, or kepleng and in Sundanese they are called camcauh or tahulu.[5]
There are other plants that could possibly be used for making grass jelly but are not currently known to be used as such.
