Yeahโผ๏ธ Sepang is well known for its dragon fruits plantations, in fact the biggest dragon fruits plantations in Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ , you can easily spot the cactus alike dragon fruits plants almost everywhere here ๐คฉ
This education trip has involved its participants to learn & DIY own bottle of Pitaya Enzyme here, precious learning time gained & at the same time to instill healthy living tips, bravo ๐๐ป
Hmm…Before joining, SiennyLovesDrawing was curious ๐คโโ๏ธ
- What’s the ratio/ portionโ
- Fermentation in room temperatureโ
- Need to stir it? If yes, for how many daysโ
- What’s the nutrition of Pitaya enzymeโ
- How to keep the Pitaya enzymeโ
Guess whatโโ๏ธ
The secret ingredients & tools are simple, just the dragon fruits, lemon & brown sugar, knife ๐ช & glass bottle. The instructor has shared that must use glass bottle for Pitaya Enzyme DIY making, else it will fail…So, do remember ya
The DIY pitaya enzyme steps also easy to follow from the instructor’s guidance,
- Wash hand & fruits, then clean & slice the fruits with knife ๐ช
- Put in all the ingredients layer by layer in the glass bottle
- Once full, close the lid & store the glass bottle in a cool & dry place. No need to place in fridge yet
- Do shake the bottle gently everyday to get the brown sugar to coat the fruits nicely
- The pitaya enzyme should be ready in approximately 3๏ธโฃ weeks
- However, once opening the lid for consumption, do place the enzyme in fridge. The ๐ temperature will slow down the fermentation process & delay the enzyme from turning into vinegar
