DIY: Make a Balloon Out of Gluten

So, my sister and I wanted to see if you could extract the gluten from flour to make a very elastic ball of protein. Then, we tried (and succeed!) to fill it up with air like a balloon.

Ingredients:
2.5ish cups – bread flour
3/4ish cups – water

*NOTE*: I was not very specific in the video, but you MUST use UNBLEACHED BREAD FLOUR for this to work (it has the highest protein content out of most flours)

Here’s a link to a pretty good bread flour:
