Trying to make crème brûlée… but with cassava (aka this random stick I found). This turned into a full-on cooking experiment slash chaotic kitchen moment.

Cassava (yuca root) is a staple in Indonesia and Brazilian cuisine, but I’ve never used it before — so naturally I tried turning it into a fancy French dessert. What could go wrong?

This video is part weird food experiment, part cooking challenge, and part “this might be a terrible idea.” Between figuring out how to prepare cassava safely, not ruining the texture, and hoping it doesn’t taste bitter, this might be one of my most questionable recipes yet.

Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever cooked cassava before — or if I just invented something that should not exist.

  1. In Indonesia, we usually cut it into sticks, season it with garlic, salt, and MSG. Then steamed. After that, fried. It was the best meal of my childhood, and I still make it to this day…..

  2. In Ghana we actually use this to make a common dish in Africa known as fufu usually paired with light soup or groundnut soup ❤❤

  3. We eat this in the Caribbean , it's put in soup , and it's eaten on its own with butter/ saltfish or other stuff and It's pretty good as chips

  4. Dude, you need to boil cassava until tender before you want to cook it into anything (fried, steamed, mashed). At least that's how we do it in Indonesia.

  6. You should look for a recipe for cassava cake with coconut from Brazil they used to be popular with street vendors here in Rio, at least they were when I was a child.

  7. In Nigeria it's a yummy food🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

  8. So, cassava is weird, while boba (tapioca pearls) is not weird, even though boba are made from cassava. 🗿

  9. In Brazil we use a “cassava powder” to make a food called “pão de queijo” (Brazilian bread)

  10. They bake super chewy bread with it but idk if it's local to a specific country. I worked at a bakery that made it but they were literally just called "cassava" after the ingredients
