Berry jelly is a delicious drink that appears less and less on tables. But cooking it is not at all difficult, especially if you use special briquettes for cooking, which can be purchased at any store.
It is necessary
- - briquette;
- - starch;
- - lemon acid;
- - sugar;
- - the juice;
- - cooking;
- - berries;
- - ice cream.
Instructions
Step 1
Usually, manufacturers write a recipe for boiling jelly right on the package. If the firm, whose briquette you purchased, did not bother to do this, or the recipe is written in a foreign language unknown to you, do not be discouraged. The recipe for boiling jelly from all briquettes is almost identical.
Step 2
Crush the briquette. If it's fresh, you can do it with your fingers. In the event that the packaging has been on your shelf for several months, you may not be able to handle it with your hands. Try to crush it with a mashed potato crush, roll it out with a rolling pin, grate it, grind it in a mixer or blender, and only then start cooking. Make sure that there are no lumps in the powder - it needs to be crushed thoroughly.
Step 3
For 250 grams of powder, you need two liters of water. Pour them into a saucepan and put them on fire. While the water has not boiled, dissolve the powder from the briquette in a little cold water. The resulting solution must be mixed thoroughly to avoid the formation of lumps. After the water has boiled, turn off the heat and pour in the dissolved powder in a thin stream.
Step 4
The previous step can be simplified and pour the jelly into boiling water in the form of a powder. It should also be put in a little bit, otherwise the particles will stick together in the water, and you will have to break them for a long time. In this case, the jelly must be stirred continuously.
Step 5
If you have a sweet tooth, add sugar to taste. Also, if you prefer thick jelly, initially you should take less water or add a little starch diluted in cold water at the end of cooking.
Step 6
You can also add citric acid, jam, squeezed fresh or frozen berries, juice to the jelly from the briquette - everything that will tell your imagination and approve your taste. And if you put a scoop of ice cream in a glass of hot jelly, you will get an exquisite delicacy.
