Some of the other ingredients we just decided to ignore (colors, whey, whey protein, sunflower oil), but we would probably experiment more with them (like the oil) for future batches. Sodium diacetate was only available as salt & vinegar seasoning and had salt as its primary ingredient, so we added no additional salt to many of our early batches. Our first batch tasted too meaty, so we dialed back the yeast extract, but upped the MSG to keep the savory flavor. We created a spreadsheet like (attached) to record our various batch recipes, and then simply went off of taste for creating future batches. Something more rigorous would probably use weights, but in the end, you're combining sugar, salt, and MSG: it's going to taste good almost no matter what. And since everything is a powder, we just assumed each ingredient would weigh about the same, so our recipe is all volume-based. Since ingredients in the United States are listed in the quantity that they're present, this was a decent starting point for our relative proportions of powders. To recreate the Flamin Hot recipe, we started with the ingredients list as found on the back of a bag of Flamin Hot Cheetos. Maltodextrin (It locks in oil to keep a powdery outside quality to whatever oily thing you sprinkle it on): Ĭitric acid (Sour Warheads or Sour Gummy Worms flavor): ĭisodium inosinate / disodium guanylate (They "synergize" with MSG to make your mouth water and make you crave more!). It can be hard to find some of these weird chemicals, so we have links for all of them for you! In total, it will cost you about $25 to get started.Ĭheddar cheese powder (Tastes like cheese). To get that good, gas-station quality level of "hyper-palatability" in your snacks, you can't rely solely on the ingredients of our ancestors, rather you need to find the things that man has perverted in nature to bring us amazing chemicals! These chemicals make for really fun modernist cooking, and they can all be used for lots of other crazy recipes! Like dip watermelon in some citric acid, and you have Warheads-Candy Tasting Fresh Watermelon! but we took a shot at some cooking this time! This is an instructable by Andrew Quitmeyer (blorgggg) and Craig Durkin (durkie).

Hot cheetos how to#
In the following instructable, we will tell you how to make it, and also guide you through what all these strange ingredients' roles are in your snack-i-tude. And make sure to pair it with a fried or oily substrate (like french fries) - that's when it's at its best (the maltodextrin really absorbs the oil and makes it a key part of the flavor). To make it really work, grinding the spice mixture with a mortar and pestle does a surprising amount for balancing out flavors. Our recipe isn't a mirror-perfect recreation, but it's amazingly tasty. It's the slow artisanal (hipster) way to bring your fast-food favorites home! With our homemade Flamin Hot powder, you can have that Flamin Hots fire at any time, on anything.
Hot cheetos cracked#
WE CRACKED IT! The secret of the unrelenting mega-flavor of Flaming Hot Cheetos is now at your fingertips (instead of just permanently stained on your fingertips). And their exact recipe is a well-kept secret, but. Craig, co-inventor of this powder even worked with Frito-Lay's manufacturers for a bit AND THEY STILL WOULDN"T GET HIM FLAMIN HOT POWDER. The problem is, Frito-Lay WILL NOT SELL YOU JUST THE POWDER.
Or what if you have a friend whose Flamin Hot compulsion burns so fiercely that his thumb, index and middle finger are almost always stained red. Or maybe you want Flamin Hot Popcorn? Cashews? Apples? But sometimes all you really want is that Flamin Hot flavor without all that Flamin Hot hassle.
