[music playing] MYA (VOICEOVER): "Full Time Kid" with Mya.
[giggles] Hello.
I'm Mya, the Full Time Kid, and I'm in my full time kitchen.
And today, I'm gonna teach you how to make your very own colorful pasta.
Here's what you'll need.
A big pot, some spaghetti noodles or any noodles you want, a tablespoon, some water, some sandwich bags, a pinch of salt, a strainer, some food coloring, and an adult.
Let's get cooking.
First, boil some water.
[gas igniting] This might take a while.
Looks like the water's boiling.
Add a pinch of salt so the noodles don't stick together.
Then add your noodles.
While the water's boiling, we're going to prepare our bags.
First, put in two tablespoons of water into your bags like this.
One, two.
Now pick a color-- any color-- and put two to four drops into your bag.
I'm gonna close the bag.
Now do that with all the remaining colors.
When you're done with your plastic bags, it should look like this.
[chimes] Pretty, isn't it?
The noodles are done.
We strain them and rinse them in cold water.
To dye them, simply open your bag and put in an equal amount of noodles.
Be careful.
Your noodles might be a bit hot.
This pasta is looking delicious.
Now it's time to shake.
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.
[music playing] Once your noodles have set for about five minutes, you're going to rinse them under water.
Then you're going to put it into separate bowls like this.
Now carefully pour all the colors into one big bowl.
Now mix them around with a fork.
Season to taste.
You can do anything you want.
I'm adding in a pinch of salt.
Once it's seasoned, it's time to dig in.
Mmm.
Al dente, just the way I like it.
But if you don't want to eat it, you can of course play with it.
[music playing] Do I have anything on my face?
Hope you had fun making this pasta.
Thanks for watching.
Make sure to tell me in the comments how you play with your food.
Bye!
Bah!
[beep] MAN: What are you doing there?
Um.
WOMAN: Taste test.
Taste test, yeah.
[beep] Just like I would, like I would like it.
[giggles] [beep] Brains!
[gags] I think I'm eating more of my hair than pasta.
