    Hey David! Long time watcher but rare commenter. When you showed a shot of the ingredients or products you've used once for videos and never again I got curious. With all those items, would you consider making a video where you take all those single use items and try to make a meal or some kind out of them? Curious to see where that kind of video would go. I think even as a short it'd be really interesting!
    And with the gummies, I'm not sure if I remember you ever making those crystal gummies but I'd be interested to see if you're able to pull that snack off considering other creators have had trouble making it (drying time is always finicky).

  • @MWDoom
    @MWDoom 4 місяці тому +20

    Could've made the rice balls stickier by *not* washing them. Part of the point of washing the rice is to keep the rice from sticking and clumping due to the extra starch. In this case that would've been desirable.

  • @cassiana__6201
    @cassiana__6201 4 місяці тому +9

    There's this Korean dish that is similar to the rice balls. They shape in to a ball with sesame oil and fill with imitation crab meat and mayonnaise

  • @whelkpeopleofdoom
    @whelkpeopleofdoom 4 місяці тому +19

    Leftover rice from the fridge would not be sticky enough to form these balls, just FYI. That's why you use store rice in the fridge overnight for fried rice :)

    • @annbrookens945

      @lexica510 4 місяці тому +2

      In the narration he mentions that it would be possible to use leftover rice by reheating it. But as @whelkpeopleofdoom says, that wouldn't be sticky enough to work well.

    @K_i_t_t_y84 4 місяці тому +3

    Honestly it really irritates me when a person calls a recipe healthy, when it's not. Just because it's made with real fruit doesn't make it healthy, it's still packed with sugar and it's still CANDY. Just because you made it homemade, doesn't mean it's "healthy" and the misuse of the word has quickly made it lose its meaning apparently.
    Is it *healthier* than store-bought candy, because it has more nutrients in it from the fiber and vitamins of the real fruit? Yes. That does not make it "healthy".

    Yeah, gummies might seem simple, but unless you do it the "chemical" way (says I, as a sorta Food Tech [BSc in Alcoholic Beverages Technology]), you need to be a lot more involved, such as by stabilizing the gelatinous mixture. The main takeaway here is to reduce the water content dramatically. If one can't do that, they need to up the gelatin content.

  • @maxdelorey1071
    @maxdelorey1071 4 місяці тому

    if you ever try these again i would sub the lemon out for regular water or even peach juice. that should help them set a little better. as for the citric acid sugar mix, add a teaspoon per cup of sugar of cornstarch and that will help the wetness

    So if you want to taste what they really should taste like, you should try the Haribo original
