PANDAN 🌱: Natural vs Extract, Is It That Different? | Testing On Indonesian Pandan Pudding 🍮

Ойын-сауық

Hey guys, I found myself in a situation where I had both a pandan plant and pandan flavoring. I was curious, how different can it really be? Of course, I had to document it so you can find out, too!
PUDDING PANDAN LUMUT RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
🌱 Pandan Leaves
1.5 tsp gelatin
1/4 cup (50 ml) pandan juice
2 tbsp (25 g) sugar
1 cup water
1 egg
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 tsp salt
🟢 Pandan Flavoring
1.5 tsp gelatin
2 tbsp (25 g) sugar
1 cup water
1 egg
1/2 cup coconut milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pandan extract
IN RETROSPECT, choosing a recipe that uses gelatin was not the most straightforward. You really have to experiment with the amount of setting agent (whether gelatin powder, strips, or agar agar) as compared to the liquid ratio. Also, be mindful never to reach a full boil with the setting agent. Please learn from my mistakes!
WHERE TO BUY FRESH PANDAN: If you live in the US, I know you can find fresh pandan leaves at your local South East Asian grocery store (they might even have them in South Asian and general Asian stores). They are usually kept in the freezer section, so go ahead and ask!
*I'm not sure about other countries, but I imagine it might be a similar situation.

    I recently discovered Pandan for the first time and it was described as a more Asian vanilla plus maple syrup. Really love it. Thank you for showing us how to use real pandan leaves in recipes. Looking forward to trying making something with them

    I'm glad it's growing here in Suriname, South America. I wish you would have made pandan cake instead to compare. But I'll try the cake out to compare. I don't like pudding that much but I'll also try the pudding out with pandan. Thank you and happy new year 👍🙏

    There are 2 natural leaves that I usually use (I did the same way as you did to extract from the pandan leaves) for baking & drink. 1) Pandan leaves for the flavor but the color is not as bright as the leaves. 2) Suji leaves for natural green color (I used only for baking/ cooking). I use this both leaves when making drink and baking. It will give a good strong pandan flavor while the suji give me a very night medium dark green color. Hope this helps.

    Hi, I noticed you used the McCormick Buko Pandan flavoring, so it would definitely taste different since it has buko flavor as well. They also have a variant that is only pandan flavor that is clear and not colored if I remember correctly.

    Ah! I didn't know this, thanks for the info. I was only able to source this type of extract where I live in Bermuda so a clear Pandan extract could totally yield different results.

    The bottled buko pandan you have is a combination extract of YOUNG COCONUT and pandan

    i got scared when i made pandan crepes and the final product caame out a bit bitter... so i got confused... cos the pandan kaya jam and pandan bread or kwei lapis etc dont have any bitterness... so i was totally confused... then someone said dont add any white part of the pandan leaves or it will be even more bitter. then i stuffed the crepes with shredded coconut sweetened with jaggery and cardamom and it was great... but had a bitter lil bit... after taste...truth be told... so i think ready made bread and jam has tons of sugar to balance out the bitterness i suppose... i love it though... its really wonderful... i have kept chopped pandan in my freezer for a rainy day when i want to crush it another day.

    Hey it's so crazy you left this comment because my friend made Pandan ice cream a week ago and it was also bitter! Google is also saying the same thing about the white part, which I didn't have because I cut the leaves from my own plant. Maybe it has something to do with the type of Pandan or if it's frozen? Interesting thing to note about using fresh Pandan leaves though!
