Cara membuat edible straw (sedotan yang bisa di konsumsi)

Summary

In this video, the host demonstrates how to make edible straws using simple ingredients and tools. The process involves mixing rice flour, gelatin, and CMC to create a dough-like mixture, which is then cooked and molded into straw shapes. After drying under the sun, the straws are cut and rolled into their final form. The result is a functional, biteable, and sweet-tasting edible straw, offering a fun and sustainable alternative to plastic straws. The host also tests the straw with a drink, confirming its usability and sweet flavor.

Takeaways

• 😀 The video introduces a unique DIY project for creating edible straws using simple ingredients and tools.
• 😀 Key ingredients for making edible straws include rice flour, gelatin, CMC, and sugar dissolved in hot water.
• 😀 The process starts with mixing the ingredients (rice flour, gelatin, CMC, and sugar) into a smooth batter.
• 😀 The batter is cooked to a thick consistency, constantly stirred to prevent burning, much like making a traditional sticky candy.
• 😀 Oil is used in the pan to prevent the batter from sticking during cooking and to help in forming the paper-thin texture needed for the straws.
• 😀 Once the batter is cooked, it is spread thinly on a non-stick tray and dried under the sun to form a paper-like sheet.
• 😀 The dried sheet is then cut into shapes and wrapped around sterilized straw molds to form the straw's structure.
• 😀 After the straws are shaped, they are left to dry completely before being removed from the molds.
• 😀 The final edible straw is functional, can hold liquid, and is chewable with a slightly sweet taste due to the sugar used in the recipe.
• 😀 The project experiment includes making two different versions of the edible straws, one smaller and one larger, to see the variation in results.
• 😀 The creator expresses satisfaction with the successful creation of the edible straws and plans to improve them further for more perfection.

Q & A

What is the main objective of the video?

The main objective of the video is to demonstrate how to make edible straws with a unique sweet and savory flavor, showcasing the ingredients, process, and final product.

What ingredients are used to make the edible straws?

The ingredients include rice flour, sugar, water, gelatin, CMC (a thickening agent), and oil. Additionally, there are tools like a non-stick pan, molds, and a sterilized straw for shaping the edible straws.

What is the role of CMC in the recipe?

CMC is used as a thickening agent to help bind the ingredients together, ensuring the mixture has the proper consistency for forming straws.

Why is gelatin added to the mixture?

Gelatin is added to the mixture to help harden the edible straw, making it firm and sturdy enough to hold its shape when dried.

How does the presenter ensure that the mixture does not burn during cooking?

The presenter ensures the mixture doesn't burn by continuously stirring it while cooking over medium heat, preventing it from sticking to the pan or scorching.

What is the purpose of adding oil to the non-stick pan?

Oil is added to the non-stick pan to prevent the mixture from sticking and to ensure smooth removal of the edible straw after it is cooked and dried.

How is the mixture dried after cooking?

After cooking, the mixture is spread evenly on a tray and then placed under direct sunlight to dry, allowing it to become firm enough to shape into straws.

What is done after the mixture starts to dry under the sun?

Once the mixture starts to dry, it is cut into shapes, and a sterilized straw is used to mold the mixture into straw-like forms. The straws are then allowed to set completely.

How does the presenter test the edible straws?

The presenter tests the edible straws by inserting them into a drink to see if they function as regular straws. They also bite into the straw to evaluate its texture and sweetness.

What makes the flavor of the edible straw different from other typical edible straws?

The edible straws in the video have a unique combination of sweet and savory flavors, primarily because of the sugar dissolved in the mixture and the specific ingredients used in the recipe.
