    You have to visualize and follow his whole process to fully appreciate what he is doing.
    First he boils the old T shirt. this gets it clean free of contaminants. Then he cuts a swatch to use as a transfer medium and sealing the fibers by coating the swatch in cooking oil much the same way one would cure a cast iron skillet by burning the oil into it, allowing the oil to be baked into the swatch and onto the sphere effectively making it nonstick. The grinding of the boiled rice makes it have a consistent in texture about the viscosity of milk. He uses the oiled swatch to transfer the rice milk like substance to the sphere and cooks that into thin layers then piles several of those to make sort of a layered flat bread applies his filling of whatever he chooses and makes Barito like roll. I imagine it to be quite tasty as well. You just have to get around the stigma of the swatch once being a T shirt it could have been any cotton cloth.
    Learning the ways and means of how things can be done in primitive ways could be very important for survival should the world be thrown back into a less technological era.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    Yes indeed, when the smoke begins to clear after the "advanced" societies have blown everything up there will be survivors. Tt will be those who are able to make use of what they have to survive who will live on. And they will NOT be able to Google for solutions.
