PANDAN LEAF
The more MATURE the Leaf, the DARKER the Hue, the DEEPER the Flavor.
HARVESTING
SELECTING THE RIGHT AGE
Pandan leaves are best harvested when mature but still tender. This usually occurs when the plant is around two to three years old. Older leaves may become tough and lose some of their aromatic properties.
TIME OF HARVEST
The ideal time to harvest pandan leaves is early morning. At this time, the leaves are their juiciest, ensuring the maximum flavor and fragrance.
CUTTING TECHNIQUE
Harvesters use sharp knives or scissors to cut the leaves to avoid damaging the plant. Only a few leaves are harvested from each plant at a time to ensure the plant continues to thrive.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
After harvesting, the leaves should be handled gently to prevent bruising or writing. They are often bundled together and kept in a cool, dry place to maintain their freshness and aroma.
