Make Your Own Edible Bubbles! | Spherification

[@TheRampagingFrodo]

I love the lab format! Hope we can see more DIY experiments.

[@SwedishTourist]

Agree, super fun!

[@patriciatriplet3145]

🙋 me too

[@humbertoinguanzo5138]

Yes!!!

OMG a SCISHOW LAB video?!?! I'm sooooooooooooo down for more.

[@Moscato_Moscato]

Same!!

[@Rubrickety]

I wasn't sure I would enjoy spherification, but ultimately I had a ball.

[@Felipeh999]

Interesting. My wife works with 3D printing of living cells with alginate gels, so I hear about those things almost every day. I was really hoping to hear the egg box part!

SciShow lab videos: probably one of the best things in 2021

[@stax6092]

As a cook we've been doing this so long it seems weird that people only recently started to really take notice. I mean it was one of the things I learned back in college many years ago now. Love the episode.

[@benjaminniven4210]

ok, the lab part was fun. More of that please! especially with edible chemistry

[@ColonelBanana]

Bill Nye vibes.

[@lucidmoses]

That's a new format for you guys. Two thumbs up. Nicely done.

[@admiralnips8294]

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS EPISODE

[@alexbelles1370]

I did this for a science experiment in 6th grade I think and I didn’t take the bubbles out of the calcium solution fast enough so they were almost all gel. My class got the opportunity to eat some and someone almost puked 🤢, the gel is real nasty. Also if you want to do this experiment, a tablespoon measurement works great for bigger bubbles 👍

[@bs-vo1ii]

Oh yea, the outside is nasty! Someone needs to fix that

[@Theskybluerose]

What’s nasty about it? Is it the taste or texture or ...?

[@apatriot6421]

@@Theskybluerose I don't know but from his comment I'm concluding it's about it's taste

[@alexbelles1370]

@@Theskybluerose it’s the texture, makes you feel like you’re eating straight up slime. I also made them with Gatorade too and I couldn’t really notice the gel. If you add flavor, the gel isn’t bad but don’t recommend using just water

[@thecook8964]

Rinse with distilled water

Well, that explains how the candy salmon roe forms in the Poppin' Cookin' candy sushi kit!

wouldnt mind getting a little more scientific insight regarding those as well hehe. For real tho, could be an interesting video on why, how, since when yadayadayada

Hey on videos like this would you mind putting up a link from a supplier of these chemicals you trust, please 😀

[@kionnakelly2918]

That would be awesome.

[@ariel1088]

I love that you are using the metric system. It's nice

[@reiteration6273]

It'd be really cool if we started seeing balls of water sold in shops rather than bottled water. XD

[@ImieNazwiskoOK]

You can but water filters instead of water in plastic

[@7337blackwolf]

I've seen this in an animated science fiction movie, I can't remember which one!

[@pattifeit4354]

Cool, but I wouldn't want anyone else's grubby paws on the water bubble I'm about to eat!

[@tobistein6639]

@@pattifeit4354 I mean you can have them in a big container and somebody at the store is paid to hand them out, or sell them in biodegradable packaging like paper.

[@absalomdraconis]

@@tobistein6639 : Honestly, may as well just sell them with a prepackaged straw instead, just like some milk cartons.

[@GeoTrashPanda]

I just love the easy dyi science! I'll have to do this with my daughter for her show and tell time in class.

[@fyang1429]

I miss lab, I need to go back... - graduate student in pain because of remote learning

[@tobistein6639]

I'm taking an in-person organic chemistry lab next quarter! I'm excited, but also a little worried because I took the prerequisite lab class online. Going to be learning a lot of technique on the fly!

[@jaydavis761]

I'm going to add to the plethora of comments about the SciShow lab demo... that was cool, I hope you guys do more.

[@MusicalBotany]

As a biologist, I am so damn thankful for the chemists who figure out ways to manufacture essential materials out of renewable resources. Because goodness knows I am not capable of such things! Thank you, chemists!

[@davidpavel5017]

I loved the lab and quick demonstration! Would like to see more of it!

[@soniczforever5470]

Never heard of that will try that. I like textures

[@joshuaevans4301]

Yay new format! It's always exciting to see something new from such an old channel :D

Algae hydrogels are also used in gauze patches to quickly stop bleeding in emergencies and even during surgery.

[@taylorjohnson4943]

Nice change of the form factor regarding your episode. Nice 👍I would enjoy another episode like this one.

[@delightfulbanana]

Love the lab format! Keep it going!!!

[@jacobjackson5665]

I did some of those back during my cook formation. This is great to learn the science behind that.

[@seviguevaraiii]

I love this new concept! Hope you make more of this. Besides, the show is all about science.

[@y0z3nFr0g3rt]

I prefer this hues personality over the other presenters. He acts so interested and well researched.

[@alyandthecats]

The SciShow Kids set! We've seen so much of that in our house lately I had to double check what channel I was on 😂 Seriously love all the content we get from Complexly ❤️

[@khazarhay]

Finally some science on my science channel

[@muqarabawan8200]

Your channel is getting more interesting

[@shocnt]

I like this, good switch up.

[@miriam7872]

Ohh, I loved this! Gels are really weird and fascinating materials with a lot of fun research going on rn, like stimuli sensitive nanogel applications!

Lab episode! Please do more of these!

[@RevontuletMusic]

Love the format! Wouldn't mind more

[@wetfutzi]

Alginate is also used in sausages and ham. With it you can make 2kg ham out of 1kg meat and 1kg water. Mmmh tasty.

[@terryenby2304]

This was a very fun episode!

[@Reptiliomorph]

I really like the lab component, and I'd be happy to see it again.

[@ariachaudoir4850]

I love food science. It would be great to see more of it. After all, it's fairly difficult to find credible video sources on food science, at least in my experience

[@PendragonDaGreat]

Sodium Citrate can also be used to help stabilize the end product, both as a buffer solution and as a preservative (plus it can add a tart flavor)

[@GiantsGraveGaming]

As a fine dining chef, I had to deal with spherification more than once. It is good fun and you can do pretty much anything with it, the only downside I managing to actually do proper spheres, most often you get weird oblong things, the trick is having a deep alginate bath. I once made balsamic vinegar + honey spheres for a tomato and mozzarella salad and, chef's word, they did taste delicious!

[@eclairlu7586]

Oooh I’d love to see more of these lab videos

[@bgardunia]

This one was so fun.

[@oskarsfreimanis9203]

You're so good! Keep up the good work!!!

[@sdrawkcabdaernacuoy]

I like the way you said 'blender' 0:54

[@illfayted]

The Popin' Cookin' Japanese candy making kits use a lot of alginate reactions. The sushi kit uses spherification to make the pretend fish roe for the ikura maki.

I remember doing molecular gastronomy for my hs senior project

[@matttuck5010]

I used to work at a pharmaceutical plant that made all the best dope, one of which was HCB 5/325. It has orange sugar spheres inside it for some reason, that's what the red specks are. I got to weigh the sugar spheres, they were pretty cool.

[@KahSing82]

There’s this once i put the chocolate tray in the sink, n soak water thought to wash it later before i put into my recyle bin. After awhile i came back n to my surprised, the whole tray become a pile of gooey stuff, i was puzzled until i learnt that it was made from algae/seaweed. Its really impressive cos before it was dissolve its really sturdy just like any chocolate plastic tray (those inside packs).

[@keytostart7053]

I'm really surprised to not hear one mention of el Bulli or the Adria brothers - as they discovered and developed spherification all the way back in 1991. Anyone who knows of el Bulli, well you don't need to be told. If you want to see some of the world's top chefs playing with these techniques, I would recommend search for 'MSK reverse-spherified mojito' as a good starting point. Some really fascinating stuff. (MSK is an edible chemical company who supply kits and chemicals to proffesional kitchens, they have their own development department and they have videos on their website with instruction on how to use their products)
