I made indigo in a previous video, but it was almost insoluble in water. So, what I'm going to do, is chemically modify it to make it soluble. This new dye is called indigo carmine, and it's commonly used in foods, in both Europe and North America.

The only issue I have is that they don't have a tool to help you select the best server to use, and you may have to try many before you find the one with the best speed for you. Other than that, no issues.

    It depends on how you define the term "edible" Which normally means things that you would put in your mouth, and it won't make you sick or die. Which normally would get rid of a lot of chemicals from the entire list. But due to the principle of "Dose", you can technically eat every single chemical in this world, like one molecule of it, and not suffer any major consequences from it So.... not only if you are brave enough, you can also be very smart... sort of smart atleast...

This is also why car coolants are often blue. It doesnt help that the food took on the exact hue of blue usually associated with mould. Funnily enough our instincts run in the opposite direction when it comes to orange/reds, cuz those usually mean ripe, sweet fruit.

    As a cook, if you're going to salt eggs, do so right before they go on to cook if you are following a batch recipe (like when you're making them in an industrial kitchen, like a cafeteria or hospital) but, when making them individually, salt them afterwards. In the former case, consistancy matters more, and with a large batch method properly seasoning all the eggs individually isn't going to be easy, either; the process of cooking large batches of eggs in industrial kitchens differs anyways, usually involving an oven and a deep tray. When making them individually, you want to salt them afterwards so that the salt doesn't interfere with the protein bonding and allows it to bond properly, creating a firmer texture, rather than a soggy one. Some people prefer to mix in the salt beforehand because they actually prefer the softer, mushy texture, or because they prefer to have the salt mixed in consistantly rather than simply sprinkled on top. For the latter case, I'd rather recommend sprinkling salt on when the topmost layer is just about to finish congealing, so you get overall firmer eggs with a more consistant saltiness throughout.

It has to do with the psychosomatic reflex, and how humans are program to avoid bad food. This is also why when LED lights first came out a lot of restaurants had the swamp back to incandescent bulbs because of the color change of the food making people angrier and disliking their food even though it's the same exact dishes they always eat color perception plays a huge part in our lives

    Nicely explained. As a chef, I can attest to the fact that food is seen as more appealing under warmer tones of light. I once ran experiment with store bought food similar to what would have been found in a 90/00s high school cafeteria. Using the same cream colored plates and light blue tablecloth, the food was voted as more appealing in the photos taken under incandescent, warm LED and halogen bulbs VS the florescent and white/daylight LED. Oddly enough, people even preferred stage lighting (filter gels of either cool or warm colors) to the florescent lighting. School lunches were horrible, but the schools could have quelled a LOT of the disdain simply by changing the lighting for the cafeteria.

    neat! I'm wondering if there's something wrong with me, though - I've never had an issue with oddly colored food, despite being a super picky eater, and I've never noticed lighting when eating. this may be that I've had to eat 'off' food in my life and not get sick from it when growing up, so maybe I literally trained it out of me. I tend to rely more on my sense of smell and taste when eating, so... man, brains are weird.

  • @DustinRodriguez1_0

    In one of Oliver Sacks' books, he describes the case of a man who was in a car accident and sustained an extremely rare brain injury. It caused a lesion in a particular place in his brain, resulting in total loss of color vision. He saw everything in monochrome. One of the things he mentioned was a consequence of that was that it became very difficult for him to eat. He saw most food as black, and it disgusted him. We're quite sensitive to both the appearance and the context of the things we eat. Almost none of the subjective experience of taste we have is driven by objective factors. It was originally thought that we kind of lied to ourselves about our taste experience, that we would make up stories we told ourselves about how we felt about the things we ate, and that explained why professional sommeliers will drink the same wine out of a paper cup and out of a wine glass and describe them as tasting like completely different wines. But, then they did more research. It turns out, they weren't lying. fMRI brain scans showed gigantic differences in the parts of the brain that register taste. Things literally taste different based on seemingly irrelevant details like how expensive we think something is, how we think it is going to taste beforehand, etc.

    I feel like that is still kind of us telling ourselves a story, it’s just a more complicated one that we don’t realize we’re doing. Like, what I mean is that the wine is stimulating the same taste buds in the same exact way both times, and it’s not until it gets to our brain that it decides it must taste different. It’s kinda like the taste equivalent of those chess board illusions where a square in shadow and a square out of shadow are the same color despite looking different, we’re not literally seeing it be darker, our cone cells are receiving the same photons, but our brains are interpreting it based on our understanding of shadows and color to make us think that must be different

I want to get into chemistry and seeing it being practiced, with the issues and how to work around them, is really making it more interesting to me as does it help me pick stuff up. Seems to be a lot of cool "tricks" also that you don't get taught in grade school but that people into chemistry knows =). Great channel!

    For good scrambled eggs, use butter, and season them after they're cooked. Adding salt to them can cause the end result to be watery. Also, when you take them out of the pan, add some creme fraice or some cheese (basically something cold) to stop it from getting overcooked.

    Hey Nile! I wanted to ask you one thing... A week ago I mixed vinegar, water and sodium bicarbonate to try to create sodium acetate. I mixed them up and it strangely turned red. It smelled like wine. After letting it sit for about 3 hours, I boiled it off. It turned out like a thick brown liquid, that smelled disgusting. I let it sit and some strange patina came out on the surface. I put it in the microwave for like 2 minutes and it all became some kind of pinkish hard powder. I powderized it with a spoon, and it became a fine pink powder. I thought that being sodium acetate with some kind of impurities, and wanted to wash it off, but I didn't really know how. I wanted to use rubbing alcohol but I can't find it here in Italy. I let the powder sit for a few days and it became liquid again, just like before the microwave. I think it absorbs humidity well. Was that sodium acetate? Thank you!

    I love how your channel is so "breadth first" in computer science speak, where you explore the space of educational reactions somewhat all over the map. Sometimes the videos have a semi sequential ordering, such as making precursors, as in this excellent video. In this case, can I request what I think might be a first for your channel? Please post the video of you reattempting the synthesis using what you learned from this run. I agree that your reason for posting the video is you are capturing the essence of laboratory experimentation. Repeating the procedure with different details is itself educational for the audience. Thanks for your channel! About the thermal breakdown products. Since it's Blue 2, it would be really interesting to know more about what happens if you heat dyed food, like cereal made into butter cookie bars. (E.g., "Rice Crispie Treats")

    Scrambled egg cooking tip. Heat until the bottom layer just starts to solidify. Then stir by poking the edge of the flat forward into your eggs like you would to loosen a stuck meat product. Only stir enough to churn everything around, give it a few seconds and repeat. This will produce fluffy scrambled eggs very quickly.

    2:54 I don't think so. Sulfonation is generally quite difficult to do, let alone disulfonation at 90°C without oleum. Even if it occoured, there would be a nearly undetectable amount. I would be more concerned about the orto isomer (orto to the nitrogen of the amine, of course). Sulfonate group is quite bulky and therefore para is more favoured, but with heating the kinetic of the reaction becomes really messy and weird things happen. I'll see later in the video though.

    NO! Don't add salt BEFORE you cook the eggs you savage! The salt ions denature the proteins in the egg before you even cook it. The proteins coagulate even more strongly than just cooking them and give you a tighter, tougher protein network that squeezes out any water, making it dry and hard and gross.
