I brought home a lot of crap from Taiwan - these seeds were one of those I was quite excited to share. I'm wondering if I can replicate it with just the normal fig seeds I find at the grocery store? What they do in Taiwan is flip the figs inside out and dry it that way - hence the weird looking thing on the thumbnail. Anyone tried or heard of it before? Anyways hope it's somewhat interesting...we'll have to reflect later on my movie adventures. It was a crazy little short...I did a lot of "firsts" lol🤪
Ok that's good to know about figs not using wasps. Yah i guess I've looked up the definition of vegan over the years - not that i love labelling since ppl sort of pick and choose where they want to be high and mighty anyway...but i was focusing on it from the non animal aspect whereas it makes sense to focus more on the plants. Oh wells haha, so much more to worry about. -- and yes... potentially suspicious story😂😂 i could totally just see someone wanting to make fig juice snd diluting it with some water and then finding jelly after. Hehe...ok enough about my thoughts. Thank you for the info❤❤
That's another precious thing you brought from Taiwan! It's not a crap!
I have some fig trees here in my garden and several wasps, but never heard of them going inside and die there. They sometimes try to eat figs, but they go back to their cute nests afterwords...I'll check my figs again this year to make sure I'm not eating wasps too 🤣
Congratulation on your 100k plate!
Excellent demonstration! I love aiyu jelly!
Congrats on 100K!!! I was so fascinated by your demonstration. I had never seen or heard of aiyu jelly before, but I would love to try it. It seems like it would be a winner whether savory or sweet.
2:22 well…..yeah. 😂
loved this video and congrats on the youtube reward!
Congratulations on 100K! I suppose you could try, I've never heard of figs being a high pectin fruit, but seeds do generally have pectin so you can experiment
Wow! Your channel is amazing and informative.
Congratulations regarding the 100K subs!
Thank you 😊😊
This was very interesting, especially the history of this jelly substance. It's a bit of a faff to get it, so I don't believe the riverside discovery story; it seems like something you'd struggle to figure out due to calorie deprivation. I wonder if it can be used as a culinary gelatin? Insects aren't vegan because they're not plants, but also most commercial fig varieties are not wasp-pollinated, as it's been explained to me. Amused to see that I have a similar straw covered basket like the one behind you to your right. Small world! Hope the film shoot went well; thanks for posting 🙂
Some commercial varieties of Common Figs don't need wasps, because they're bred to fruit without pollination, but aiyu comes from the Creeping Fig (Ficus pumila) which hasn't been bred to the same effect, and still requires wasps. I suspect that's why I see creeping figs grown ornamentally all over California but have never seen one fruit, there probably aren't any wasps here to pollinate them
(That said aiyu would definitely still be considered vegan in my book, cause the wasp was just doing its own thing and wasn't being killed by us or exploited for its labor or anything. The wasp is pretty incidental to the product from an ethical standpoint)
@@CorbiniteVids Wow, what an interesting explanation; thanks!
this is so so good to know! thank you for trying and showing on video. Can we just put that tied seeds in hot water ? I think it will be so much useful for cakes. like jelly inserts for vegetarian people
Congratulations on your 100k
Thank you so much ❤
I definitely would say bugs aren't vegan, but figs still are since it's a process that would happen anyway and doesn't require any exploitation or violence against the wasp on our part. It's like eating crops from any land where you know several small animals definitely lived their whole lives and eventually met a (hopefully) natural end. Some trace elements from their body would make it into what you eat, but that's inevitable and as long as there's no exploitation and they weren't killed by us then it'd have to be vegan or else we'd have nothing to eat. It's just nature doing its weird gross thing. Especially since fig wasps evolved to have this as a part of their life cycle, I'd imagine it'd be a pretty painless thing to them, otherwide it'd be pretty maladaptive. The wasp does its thing completely on its own of its own volition, and then we collect the aftermath.
o-aew or aiyu if anybody wanna look them up
6:13 a ruptured seed is highly poisonous 😂 jk lots of big faith asks early in this video
