Hello Mom Friends... How are you doing during this pandemic? I hope mom friends are all still in good health. Mom friends familiar with potato donuts? It is certain that most mom friends already know about this one snack because donuts are one of the snacks that we have met and consumed even when we were small.
Currently, there are various types of donuts on the market. In addition to the various types, the prices also vary, ranging from donuts which are priced at Rp. 2,000 to donuts that have a price of Rp. 100,000. The price variation is certainly inseparable from the taste and recipe in the donut dough and of course the brand of the donut.
Are you curious about how these expensive donuts can be so delicious to enjoy? To answer the curiosity of mom friends, in this article, we will discuss one of the secret donut recipes that can make donuts tastier than potato donuts in general.
Mom friends certainly already know that one of the main ingredients for making donuts is margarine. The margarine in this donut dough serves as a yeast helper in carrying out its duties so that the dough can expand properly. Well, the dough that expands well is what will make the donuts have a softer and not lumpy texture. Like other products, margarine on the market today also has many choices. The number of choices certainly makes mom friends have to be even more observant in sorting and choosing so that the donuts produced later are not only delicious but also healthy.
Well, the good news for mom friends is that this margarine can be replaced with one of Mamaco's products, known as Mamaco Crystal. From the results of a casual conversation with Yohanes Tri Wicoro from the Mamaco team who is more familiarly called Jojo. Jojo explained that Mamaco Crystal is solid coconut cooking oil made from the best copra which during the production process, this Mamaco Crystal is hydrogenated and processed in such a way that the health aspect is maintained.
Jojo also explained a little bit of a simple theory that can make Mamaco Crystal Coconut Solid Oil an alternative ingredient for making cakes, especially Potato Donuts and even deserves to be recommended.
The first point, of course, is seen from the aspect of health. It's no secret that coconut cooking oil is healthier than palm cooking oil. Likewise with Mamaco Crystal which is made from copra (dried coconut) where Mamaco Crystal does not have trans fat so it is certainly healthier when compared to margarine which is made from palm cooking oil.
Second, based on its function as the main ingredient for making donuts. Mamaco Crystal and margarine are both equally able to bind the ingredients for making cakes so that there will be no problems that arise when mom friends replace margarine with Mamaco Crystal.
And the third is seen from the texture of the donuts. It turns out that donuts that are processed using mamaco crystal have a softer texture when eaten which of course can make your appetite increase, mom friends.
For its application, Jojo said that this mamaco crystal can 100% replace margarine, which means that all margarine needs in the dough can be replaced as a whole with mamaco crystal. But, if you're still not too confident, mom friends, you can use a ratio of 1 gram of margarine to 1 gram of mamaco crystal. Or if explained numerically, if one recipe requires 100 grams of margarine, then the use of margarine is 50 grams and the other 50 grams use Mamaco Crystal.
Jojo also said that for the first try there might be a difference in the taste of the resulting donuts. This is because indeed all experiments may not necessarily be successful with just one try. But, to live a healthy life, any effort should be willing to do.
Well, if mom friends need a reference for using solid coconut cooking oil for making these donuts, mom friends can check the recipe at the link below:
