Harvesting Pandan Leaves

Using natural ingredients to make cakes can be started by using garden crops to be used as ingredients for food or drinks.

Pandan leaves are one of my favorite plants to be involved in making food or drinks. Some of us refer to Pandan leaves as vanilla from Asia.

Pandan leaves have a distinctive fragrance. We usually use Pandan leaves as a natural fragrance enhancer in food, as well as a natural colorant for food or beverages.

One thing that is a positive point of planting Pandan plants is that it is very easy to breed into large and large groups. We only need to get rid of some of the Pandan Plant if this plant is too dense. Removing some plants from the group aims to avoid the absence of snakes nesting among the Pandan Leaves bushes.

For daily use, we usually add some Pandan leaves when cooking rice to make the rice smell good, especially when we buy rice that is cheap, and it requires adding fragrance so that the rice dish doesn't smell bad.

Pandan leaves From My Family Garden

I am very grateful that there is a Pandan Plant in my family garden. Sometimes I replant in my own backyard, but when they are in good condition, I remove them to avoid snakes. That's because there is a bad experience that happened in our family about Pandan leaves. There was a snake that entered the house which turned out to be nested among Pandan leaves. So, the best choice, when the condition of the pandan plant is lush, should be cleaned immediately.

In my family's garden, there are several natural fish ponds made of the soil without the addition of other materials. In the fish ponds, there are water spinach vegetables.

On the other side of the garden, we can also see banana plants and other plants. There are also taro plants which are also beautiful and can also be used as ornamental plants.

Have you ever seen Taro Plants, with beautiful leaves like this? Well, the leaves of taro are also edible. Usually, I make taro leaves as a wrapper for food dishes that have coconut and other vegetables as ingredients.

How To Harvest Pandan leaves

The way to harvest Pandan leaves is very easy. We can immediately pull out a few young Pandan leaves just by hand without tools. Or we can cut Pandan leaves which are a little hard with a dark green color, but are very good for natural food coloring.

I took Pandan leaves the young ones, as well as the old ones. I brought a pair of scissors to use to cut Pandan leaves.
