- Dragon's Beard Candy, also know as pashmak, or ggultarae, is a handmade confection made of thousands of threads of pulled sugar, so fine that they resemble hair. Here's my attempt (including the many fails) to make this ancient and delightful candy. đ New videos every Thursday and Saturday!

Uuh, that's dark my friend. :D

Now I know who to give my 20 dollars :|
My 7 year old said, "Wow, she's good at cooking AND math!"

She knows her 4s

She is japanese...
She means she is good at math AND cooking
You could call the fails Dragon bones
Yeah!
Man I would love eat that!
I would eat that
Fail #2 made me think of whiskers when she held the blooper up to her upper lip :)
I live in the same way to take a few minutes late
One really important thing to remember when heating sugar in a pot with a liquid (usually water) is to only stir the slightest bit at the very beginning to dissolve the crystals, and then do NOT stir again. At all. It changes the state of the sugar and hardens it. I know it's considered common knowledge, but if you didn't know, just remember that.
Jade Laurel Johnson I didn't know, so I appreciate you sharing.
i didnt know that either, thank you :)
Thank you! That's very helpful information
yeah thatâs important to be noted because i wasted so much sugar for caramel when i stirred too much
Iâll join the I didnât know party. Haha. Thanks.
As a professional cook but not quite a chef, thank you for making and showing your mistakes. Being a younger culinary professional can be daunting and often times masters/teachers of the trade don't share the mistakes that help them learn. Learning from others mistakes is one of the things that has made food so diverse and rich, and I can't understand why the learning process isn't developed to help apprentices correct their mistakes instead of just not making any in the first place.
because of ego. Many are too narcissistic to share their fails
@It's the fox! Jumping to conclusions? It is more professional to cut out mistakes and it doesn't waste the viewers time.
That having been said,I do appreciate to see the mistakes, especially since it acts as a 'what to avoid' tip.
Noice! I am 13 and planning on going to pastry culinary school!
Yesss exactly !! It makes everything SO daunting, and makes you so nervous to try when they always seem so perfect and like its so easy.... But when you know even the professionals make mistakes and fuck up, that they have tried and tried again, and learn from their mistakes !! Its not as scary to try. đđđ¶ practice makes perfect yall !!

I'm so sad I use to pass her videos up, I've been really missing out, she just dives into whatever her videos are about, she trust her own information, and really researches her topics. Love her!!
I love her hair
Simoney Lit canât help but to lol itâs been the same for like 10 years plus or minus diff lengthsđ but I consider it classic Emmy. If it ever changed idk what Iâd do.
Right? My hair's so heavy, it could never retain curves like that, lol.
I hate it itâs so ugly like duh
Her laugh is amazing đ I love it
Aisha Moh k hun thatâs your opinion
Old candy pullers trick: warm the ball of candy before pulling. It will work a lot easier.
The chewiness is the corn starch
Exactly! Her candy wasn't hot enough to stretch easily and she had to put too much strength into it.
Hello there. Thank you for this tip. Im not going to be doing this job, i just want to make it for my family. Can you tell me the temperature and which scale (celsius, kelvin, farenheit...) Thank you in advance!
@A Bookworm but you should cook it for 20 mi utes on 133°C?
@A Bookworm 133°C is too much for a human being to be able to touch it directly and shape it, isn't it?
This is horrible. You would think we learned our lesson after the Tasmanian Emu and Tasmanian Tiger. How many more dragons need to die before we end poaching.
Emu? We still have those Do you mean the dodo?
ATLEAST SHES EXPLAINABLE TO US STOOPID
@@scottsanders4589 They are extinct in Tasmania, Dodo's as well but most only know it by it's name and know little else. Emus are a bit more recent, in certain regions.
@@diGritz1 have you played Ark? I'm the reason all the dodos are dead. But seriously though the Emu is not extinct. Granted there are a few subspecies that may not be around anymore but that's like saying humans are extinct because the ancient Egyptians don't exist anymore. Furthermore humans causing things to go extinct has only just recently started happening. We basically just got here and we are practically already out the door. Just like the lystrosaurus which is arguably one of the most successful land animals to ever exist. So many things have gone extinct before we had a chance to affect them. Literally everything on Earth could die and in just a few billion years the earth will just reset itself just like it's been doing for the last 3 billion this whole crazy process will restart its natural Extinction Cycles all over again.
Sorry I think I should point out that I liked your comment and I really enjoyed your joke! I don't want you to think I'm some type of moron that doesn't get hueman comedy. I enjoy hueman laughter and hueman feelings.
Emmy's kids are extremely fortunate to have her as a mother. She's so well-rounded and smart, and to grow up around someone like that will make happy and productive kids
SHE HAS A CHILD

In my country we called it "rambut nenek" which literally means "grandma's hair" đ

that's cute

Indonesian!
In israel we call it "Se'arot savta" which is also translated into grandma's hair!
I absolutely love your use of vocabulary and the way you choose your words and for your sentences its so satisfying.
The heated corn starch table the many of the street vendors are using is certainly a pro tip.
Man, it's insane how easy that one Korean candy maker stretched out the Dragon's Beard. He makes it look so easy.
emmy you're so infectiously sweet and positive, keep doing what u doing
Yeet
yourguardianangel Army???
Iâm so proud of her cause I would of gave up in the second try!!!
I'd give up on the first try, XD
Edit _ Central I wouldnât have even thought about making it đ
Faith Jones yep, me too. After I throw everything at the walls while cursing. đ€Ł
WOW!!! YOU REALLY DID GREAT, AND SHOWED DETERMINATION AND MOTIVATION IS THE KEY TO WINNING!!!
Cindy M. Definitely knows how to count great
Your voice is so sweet and gentle. You're so patient whenever something happens and you always try again. Subscribed after this video. Love you!â„ïž
For anyone wanting to make this at home: do not stir the mixture as it cooks! She did not say it in this video but in multiple other ones Iâve watched they have all said not to stir and just let everything dissolve on its own
Katie Parkin What she said! Stirring only agitates the mixture and encourages crystals to grow! You won't have Dragon's Beard, You'll have Rock Candy!!!
firegodessreiko I must have completely missed that! Thanks for correcting me
Also it shouldn't be cold, its supposed to be hot and handled with gloves or hands if you can bear this much heat. I had a neighbor who used to make it early morning and then sell it door to door. I once helped him in stretching part at the age of 8 and he handled it with metal rods to stretch because it was hot and in big amount which can't be handled by one person, there were like 10 people stretching one giant hula-hoop.
Just put the small pot inside the bigger pot with water...... the ancient Chinese did not have the thermometerăbut everyone knows the boiling point of water....
@@chiuansheng can you please tell me how to do it traditional without thermometer?
Hello Lovelies, There seems to be confusion with my counting in the video, so let me clarify what exactly I was counting. The initial circle (the steering wheel of candy) is 1 LOOP which consists of and will make 2 STRANDS. And for the remaining part of pulling process I'm referring to the number of STRANDS, not loops. "1 loop is 2 strands, then 4 strands, 8 strands , 16, 32, 64...16,384 strands of candy.
Hi Emmy! Love your channel. Was the taste worth the work?
Omg, I had this when I went to Korea, and you could get chocolate, nuts, or fruits inside, it was SOOOo good. I really recommend it, if you ever go to Korea, you HAVE to try it!
Or to every other country in East/South Asia or Middle East
@emmymadeinjapan - I just love your videos! You make me smile each time because you're a goof-ball and I don't mean that in a bad way. The way you laugh at something and find the positive even in failure is amazing! You are absolutely beautiful both inside and outside!
In Australia, pashmak goes by "Persian fairy floss." It's so beautiful! Flavoured with rose or orange, it's extra lovely.
Oh, flavored with rose would be divine.
lovely, but expensive lol
Loves Life and Laughs rose water doesn't cost much at the asian food store. at least not in germany.
emmymadeinjapan I want to apologize Emmy. I am so sorry if my comment/questions came across as rude! I definitely did not intend that. I was truly confused and trying to understand. I love you and your channel and have been a sub for years.đł
rose cotton candy sounds soooooooooooooooooooooo good
Thank you for sharing your failed attempts! I'm an art teacher and I tell my students how often first attempts do not meet with the results wanted. Also, one of my aunts was a master at homemade candy. She said it is important not to hurry the sugar mixture. You must be patient!

marim0y is it just me or that sounds like a cruel jealous person?? đđ im just joking pls dont fight me guys â
Pink Sausage ha! I see it but that's so not what I meant! đ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
marim0y seriously every time i try to cook or bake something from tutorials my kitchen is destroyed and it ends up looking like trash:)
I'm glad she showed them because a normal person would fail like 200 times making this.... or maybe I'm just imagining myself trying to make it. :)
Yes! because we like seeing people fail đ
Request: Spaghetti Pot Pies! I used to eat these in the 60s and 70s, but can't find them anymore. Could you try looking for these, or creating them? The were so good. Thanks Emmy!
DjTechnoid that's sounds good
As someone who LOVES spaghetti, I agree. That's sounds DELICIOUS!
I had no idea that was a thing!
For those that have not had them, they were a standard pot pie crust, filled with spaghetti noodles, and a great spaghetti meat sauce... I always chose those over chicken, turkey or beef. I really wish they would come back!
DjTechnoid Wow. I have never heard of those! We ate Banquet pot pies alot when I was a kid. My fave was the Tuna-which also hasn't been made in years. Were yours Banquet too or some other brand?đ
Can the whole world just be like Emmy please?
Thanks for really showing how many times you made the batches. That' s really going to help when your viewer's make this candy..
Peanut butter play dough. Itâs a concoction made of (I think) peanut butter, dry milk, powdered sugar and honey. I recall making/playing with/eating it in preschool.
Nicohana yes! Yum
Iâd love to see that! I made Peanut Butter play dough in school when I was in elementary and I definitely over indulged! I realize now being much older itâs kind of gross to play with and then eat it though haha
We knew it by 'Incredible Edible'!!! I wanna say we saw the recipe on Lambçhop's Play Along show...maybe?
We made it at home when I was a kid. Great fun!
Hello đ how are you doing
The first time I'd eaten beard candy... it was like an accident! The packaging was super lovely so I'd bought it without knowing what it really was. Inside was some crushed nuts and seeds and the "hairs" were so fine and crumbly. A delight :)
Where did you buy it?
might you happen to know where you bought it?
Man what an awesome life
Am I the only who who loves the way she say delightful so delicately like wow!!! Great personality
Emmy is so calm omg! It's just something about the way she talks that gives me such comfort đ„°â€ and the hair omg yes!
"Deedeedee, driving my car! Okay, stop it."
Love you Emmy!
"If you have stalactites for hair" - DAMMIT EMMY, You know I'm sensitive about my condition!

R.I.P hair
I think she means dreadlocks đ
So cool! Love that you were enjoying the journey with us and not talking at us! Thanks for bringing us along! ,
i love how when she started she turned one ring into 2 and called it 4 lol
I was like what?
Because its 1,2,4,8,16,32 and so on but when she said 4 i was like
"Women... i think you got a 4/10 on a math test"
Im sorry if im mean but im the person that will tell ya the truthđ
She's counting strands not rings, so 2xrings=strands

Ummm, the word "women" means more than one woman. Emmy is only one woman.

I love how real you are - thank you
In Turkish we call this PiĆmaniye or Tel Helva and i didnt even know it was known all around the world in different names.
In Turkey don't they also put pistachios on it?
They do!
In Turkey, we called it âpiĆmaniyeâ I really like it.
Just a tip but I think one of your oops is that you place your candy thermometer is touching the bottom of the pan. The bulb can not touch it cause you will get a false temp it should just sit on the top of the syrup.
When measuring heat, tip needs to be in the center to get the correct temp.
PM Snowraven Candy thermometers are raised off the bottom. They never touch the pan. Theyâre in a metal frame.
Belinda Everman
Depends what thermometer you have
Vivioli Ravioli not if itâs a âcandy thermometer â
I love your sense of humor đđ
I donât know what it is about the way Emmy speaks that is so soothing and lovely to listen too!!
She's got vocabulary. Lots of different adjectives. She speaks very skilfully, like someone playing an instrument and makes it appealing to listen to her. Most people have a very limited vocabulary and cannot properly express what they are doing, seeing, feeling, tasting et cetera. They sound boring very quickly.
Hello đ how are you doing
Well done Emmy! Never give up!
Thanks!đ
I love your patience.
I love how you eat it. You make everything look delicious.
Thank you Emmy for sharing so often. You always brighten my day, with your gentle, kindness and calmness. You are beautiful.
I love dragonâs beard candy! Next time, try filling it with crushed peanuts and sesame seeds! Itâs delicious!!
winnie you look v cute
Yeah! That's like the one I've had.
winnie
Where did you buy yours?
Wow you did an awesome job for never ding this before. It needs to stay a specific temp . when they make it they are in either hot weather or they have a heating lamp or the actual counter is temp controlled that's how they do it so fast and it's giving u such a hard time because you are actually using ur hands to warm it... They all make it look so gosh darn easy. Lol.
She's so smart, bubbly, pretty and cute! She literally stands out. She's so awesome!!!
Absolutely awesome. Thank you for the demonstration!!
Yehey!!! Finally! Someone who understands the candy. It's freaking annoying how they just make the floss type candy. But not the actual candy. It's very delicious and those who attempted it are not giving it justice.
calamitasCorvus I think they might be talking about how some people just eat it directly after they've finished pulling instead of making it into the actual candy servings like Emmy did
Well done Emmy!. So impressed!. Usually they'd make it inside a box with a light on to keep the candy and the corn starch warm so it won't crack while pulling. Yet you did it!. Hats off!
Love this... love your candid enthusiasm! Brilliant!
Okay...Iâm hooked! I totally love your videos. Super authentic and I especially love all the geek info!
Majestic way to spend my Saturday evening. Thanks for always making CZcams special!
It would be cool to see your kids trying the foods you make. I love your videos too !!!âĄâĄ
I definitely understand not wanting your children in your videos available to the public.
SO much patience and persistence!
Ho Ho Ho to you, funny lady!
You always have the super fun, super weird, super cute foodie experiments, and I simply ADORE you for this fact of life! Thanks for always being such a charming ray of sunshine, and willing to mess up your kitchen for our entertainment!

Regarding the black shirt... I live about 45 minutes from New Orleans, and whenever I go there, I like to get beignets. Even though I've been eating at Cafe du Monde since I was a kid, and even though I've reminded myself not to wear black, it almost never fails- I wind up wearing black and getting covered in powdered sugar. I'm such a genius... đ

Hello đ how are you doing
She makes everything sound so easy
I love to cook. I am a chef at heart. And I love to experience other cultures; no matter how strange the delicacy. Such as mealworm tacos. And all your videos are so inspiring. And when you do fail you have this Bob Ross demeanor about it. "It is not a mistake. There are no such things as mistakes. Just happy accidents." - Bob Ross
Keep giving inspiration. This world needs it now more than ever.
Being a mom creates that kind of patience and determination.

I thought it was made from old honey?!
Pretty sure its just preference
You can make it from both, aged honey is just one of your options.
Honey doesnât get old đ
In korea, they make it with honey.
@@@shutup2813 how does honey NOT get old?? Of course it gets old. Its old but its still good, old is not synonymous with bad. Just like how you can eat old cheese.
