Replace Pandan leaf in a recipe?
Q. Can any herb or combination of spices replace Pandan leaf in a recipe? Trying to cook Indonesian food but the leaf is the only thing not availble in my city.

A. Are you using the leaf to wrap the food as a packet? In which case you could replace the pandan leaf with banana leaf or even use wax paper, parchment paper or aluminum foil . As an herb, the essence is known as "kewra" --- if you have an Indian store in town, they will carry it. It's also called screw pine leaf, many Asian stores will carry it (check the frozen section).

What's in pandan leaves (Pandanus amaryllifolius) that repels cockroaches?
Q. This is for a research project. I've read in wikipedia that cockroaches hate the smell of pandan leaves so I wondered what is in them. You could also provide me the leaf's chemical composition or if there's been any study about it and where i can find it. Thank you very much! Any help is appreciated.
Asked by turtlemocha23 - Tue Jul 8 06:53:46 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It`s the volatile oil of Pandanus amaryllifolius, which repels cockroaches and other vermin too. The active principles are mainly terpenes and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (6-42%), as well as a major aroma component 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline. See publication:

They are actually quite easy to grow in you home in a flower pot.
