How To Make Pandan Juice and Pandan Extract

gr pandan leaves (screwpine leaves) (fresh or frozen)

water (see notes)

Kitchen shears

Cheese cloth

Fine strainer

Blender

Wash the pandan leaves to get rid of sands or dirt

Cut into a 1-inch piece with kitchen shears. Do not put into the blender whole. Pandan leaves are very fibrous and need to be broken down into smaller pieces

Blitz away until the leaves are reduced to pulps

Transfer to a cheesecloth, which I used. You can use fine mesh strainer too. Squeeze all the juice out as much as you can

You get your pandan juice. Transfer to a glass jar and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. After that, they will start to smell bad. You can even go two more rounds with the pulps and add more water to get a more diluted version of pandan juice if you want

For pandan juice:

Once you transfer the pandan juice to the glass jar and store in the refrigerator, let them sit undisturbed for 18-20 hours. The green sediment will start to accumulate at the bottom of the jar. This is your extract. Discard the liquid layer on the top and you can use the extract at the bottom

To get the pandan extract:

Fresh pandan leaves can be kept frozen. Make sure you put them in double freezer bag if possible. These leaves can pick up aroma/smell from your freezer if you don&#39;t store them properly. I like to bundle probably about 10 leaves (more or less is up to you) in one bunch, wrap tightly with a cling wrap and then put in a freezer bag, push all the air out and put inside another freezer bag. I know it seemse like a lot of wrapping and plastic, but I always re-use those freezer bags. This way, your pandan leaves won&#39;t absorb aroma from your freezer

When ready to use, simply thaw them at room temperature for 15-20 minutes and they are ready to be used per recipe instructions

How to store pandan leaves properly:

Thanks for a well presented and useful article. Information is clearly stated and great photographs. A picture tells a thousand words and helps a learner to evaluate results. Wish many other blogs were as well done.

pandan leaves

water

Tablespoons sugar

Make Pandan Extract:  Wash the pandan leaves thoroughly.  Cut 2 of the pandan leaves into 1 inch lengths.  This should give you roughly 1/2 cup of pandan leaf pieces.  Combine 1/2 cup of pandan leaf pieces with 1/2 cup of water in a blender.  Blend until the leaves are broken down, then strain the leaves out.  You should end up with 1/2 cup of bright green pandan extract.

Make Simple Syrup:  In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of water, 4 Tablespoons of sugar, and the remaining 2 pandan leaves (cut or knotted to fit into the pot).  Allow to simmer for approximately 10 minutes so that the water is flavored with the aroma of pandan.  Allow the simple syrup to cool.

Make Pandan Juice:  Mix 1/2 cup of pandan extract with 2 cups of the pandan-infused simple syrup.  Allow to cool in the refrigerator.  When you&#39;re ready to drink, pour the Pandan Juice over a glass of crushed ice.  Garnish with fresh pandan leaves, if you like.
