Ingredients for making kokoro (corn stick).

1. Ground yellow corn,
2. Two tablespoons of sugar
3. Pinch of grated ginger (optional)
4. Pinch of hot pepper (optional)
5. Mix a pinch of salt and everything well.
6. Water
7. Vegetable oil for frying

• Remove all the dirt in the yellow corn and grind it into a powder. Another alternative, buy yellow cornmeal powder from the market.

NB: I prefer if you grind it yourself. This allows you to spend your time removing all the dirt).

• Measure a cup of dry cornmeal and divide it into two parts. (half a cup each)

• In a small bowl, add ½ cup cornmeal, sugar, pepper, salt, and grated ginger. Mix well and set aside

• Pour half a cup of water into a saucepan and let it boil.

• Once done, add the cornmeal to the boiling water and stir constantly until it thickens. Scrape the dough from the ladle, cover in plastic wrap or a ladle and set aside to cool.

• Put the cornmeal in a large bowl, cover and let cool completely.

• When cool, add remaining dry cornmeal and knead until smooth.

• Cut a small portion and place it on a flat surface (add a little cornmeal to the surface to prevent it from sticking) and roll it up to form the famous long finger shape.

• When rolling out kokoro, you will need to roll the ends (both ends) thinner than the middle section

• You can even come up with your own shape. Repeat this process for the remaining dough until everything is ready.

• Place the pan on the stove, heat enough oil and let it reach about 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Knowing the oil temperature is very important.

• Don’t let it get too hot because you don’t want Kokoro’s limbs to burn.

• You can test the oil by dipping the thin part of the ladle in the oil. If it sizzles, it’s hot enough to start frying. Fry the mixture on a stick until it becomes firm or golden brown.

• Remove Kokoro from heat and place on grading lines with paper towels to remove excess oil.

• Allow to cool before storing in an airtight container. Pack it in your own nylon or plastic containers, put your label on it, and sell it.
