I found a small can of gelatine hidden behind all the tall goods in my pantry. I look at the expire date and it showed that it will expire in a week. As you would have known me: I don’t like to waste food. Luckily, it’s enough to make this jelly and another.

Google: “Jelly is a transparent, usually coloured food that is eaten as a dessert. It is made from gelatine, fruit juice, and sugar. Jelly, the wobbly fruit dessert that is a staple at birthday parties, has traditionally not been suitable for vegans as it contains gelatine. Gelatin can come from collagen derived from cow or pig bones, hides, and connective tissues.”

“Blueberries are a widely distributed and widespread group of perennial flowering plants with blue or purple berries. They are classified in the section Cyanococcus within the genus Vaccinium. Vaccinium also includes cranberries, bilberries, huckleberries and Madeira blueberries. Blueberries are sweet, nutritious and wildly popular. Often labelled a “superfood,” they are low in calories and incredibly good for you. They’re so tasty and convenient that many people consider them their favourite fruit.”

I use my mom gold bar jelly moulds. This is a simple and great dessert to serve at party, birthday celebration or after dinner. It can be packed to picnic but do carry it in a cooler bag. Let’s cook!!!!

Ingredients

10 g gelatine
4 g instant clear jelly powder
160 g castor sugar
1000 ml water
1 Tsp vanilla extract
80 g blueberries

Method

Grease the gold jelly moulds with oil and put 4 blueberries into the gold bar moulds. Set aside. In a bowl mix sugar, gelatine, and instant clear jelly powder well. Bring water and vanilla extract in a big pot to boil with sugar mixture, until foams floating up and sugar dissolved. Remove foams.

Pour into a jar for easy to pour into the moulds. Let it sit in room temperature for 5 minutes before transferring to fridge to set for 2-4 hours or overnight. Once set removed it to plate. Enjoy with coffee, tea or dessert wine.
