Say Bye To Store-bought Food Gels/Colors|How To Make Organic Food Color At Home|No Chemicals|Natural

More than ever now, we want to know what goes into our food. Food dye has gotten a bad rap, so if you don’t want to use it or want an all-natural solution then this is for you.
Fruits, vegetables, and spices have a strong pigment which is what makes them perfect for Homemade Food Coloring.
I am going to show you 2 methods. Check out the full video.

NO NEED FOR PERFECT PROPORTION. In the end, all we need is a liquid color or gel.
Important:
Method 1: Liquid Food Color
· You can extract the juices from the fruits and vegetables (follow the steps) and strain it.
· Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator. Add 1 teaspoon to icings, frostings, or batter. Add more coloring, if necessary.
Method 2: Food Gel
· You can extract the juices from the fruits and vegetables (follow the steps) and strain it.
· Take a saucepan, add the extracted juice, and ½ to 1 cup of water(adjust according to your need) just to dilute the juice. Adding water will neutralize the flavor of fruits and veggies.
· Saute it for 5 to 10 minutes till it thickens like shown in the video.
· Let it cools down completely, it thickens more. Store in an airtight container for up to 6 weeks.
Note:
· Make sure to use a dry spoon for every use.
· Strain the juice using nut milk bag or muslin cloth for a better and fast process.
Choose your color below and simply follow the instructions.
1. Red Color: Beet Root
· Boil the beets and blend the beets with water.
· Strain the juice and store it in an airtight container or to make a gel boil it in a pan till you get a thick consistency.
· Cool it down and store it in the fridge.
2. Orange Color: Carrot
· Blend the carrots and water together. Strain the juice.
· Strain the juice and store it in an airtight container or to make a gel boil it in a pan till you get a thick consistency.
· Cool it down and store it in the fridge.
3. Green Color: Spinach
· Boil the spinach and blend it with water.
· Strain the juice and store it in an airtight container or to make a gel boil it in a pan till you get a thick consistency.
· Cool it down and store it in the fridge.
4. Violet Color: Purple Cabbage
· Boil the cabbage and blend it with water.
· Strain the juice and store it in an airtight container or to make a gel boil it in a pan till you get a thick consistency.
· Cool it down and store it in the fridge.
NOTE: If you want nice purple color just boil the cabbage in the water and reserve that water alone. If you add baking soda to it you will get a sky blue color.
5. Yellow Color: Mango
· Blend the mango and water.
· Strain the juice and store it in an airtight container or to make a gel boil it in a pan till you get a thick consistency.

Yes, you can add a tsp sugar while making the gel. You can use it for whipped cream but don't expect the same vibrant color what we get it from the store bought.

[@ranniebaisas2188]

Does it work in fondant?

[@ChillipotKitchen]

Rannie Baisas Yes, you can. You have to add more color than the store bought gel.

[@mridulaudupa1]

Won't vegetables like cabbage add its own flavour to the cake??

[@ChillipotKitchen]

mridulaudupa1 1) You have to dilute it with water while you are making the gel. 2) Even if you feel like veggie smell Coming after making it when you are using a little bit of gel you won't get that flavor at all.

[@bhavaniprasad4978]

How many days we can store it

[@ChillipotKitchen]

I mentioned it in the video itself.

[@rashmirathi2174]

How long does it last?

[@ChillipotKitchen]

Gel last for 6 weeks to 3 months. Liquid color stays for 1 week.
