We spread them at the bottom of the forms, do it carefully, giving them an aesthetic appearance.

Pour the swollen gelatin into a saucepan, add the remaining juice and start heating. Constantly stirring, it is necessary to achieve its complete dissolution. Make sure that the liquid does not boil.

Champagne and sea buckthorn jelly recipe with champagne

Ingredients

  • Gelatin 40g
  • Water 300ml
  • Champagne sweet 200ml
  • Sugar 300g
  • Fresh figs 2pcs
  • Sea buckthorn 400g

Cooking

Pour gelatin in 100 ml of cold water and leave for 10 - 15 minutes. It absorbs water and swells. Put champagne on heating and bring to a boil. Stand for 1 minute to evaporate alcohol. Remove from heat.

Add one third of the gelatin to the champagne. Stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Cut the figs into thin slices. Cover with fruit pieces the bottom of the mold and sides. Gently pour the figs with champagne and gelatin. Put in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Pour 200 ml of sea buckthorn and slightly punch in a blender - so that the seeds remain intact.

Grate the sea-buckthorn puree over the pan through a fine sieve, kneading the berries with a spoon. Pour 200 g of sugar and put on medium heat. Add remaining gelatin. Knead until smooth.

Do not bring the sea buckthorn to a boil, otherwise vitamins will not be saved. Berries should be heated no more than 50-60 degrees.

The mashed potatoes need to be cooled before being poured onto a layer of figs so that it does not melt. When the sea buckthorn has cooled, pour it into a mold with figs. Put in the refrigerator for another hour. When the jelly has frozen, turn the dishes upside down to get dessert.

To easily get the jelly, lightly heat the bottom by lowering the mold into a container of hot water. It is important not to overheat the jelly, otherwise it will begin to melt. It should also be cut with a knife along the walls of the form, separating the jelly.

After you have turned the jelly upside down, you need to send it to the refrigerator for another 5 minutes so that the jelly seizes after heat treatment.


With the advent of instant gelatin, the preparation of desserts with its use has been greatly simplified. Nevertheless, there are always little secrets.

How to make jelly

Curly baking dishes made of silicone are an excellent option, effective and convenient. But if there are none in your kitchen, use deep salad bowls or bowls. It is advisable to line the bulk form (especially if you are making jelly cake) inside with cling film so that it is more convenient to remove dessert from it after solidification. For portioned serving beautiful glasses, disposable cups or cups. And champagne jelly, of course, is best served in flutes.

How to gently extract jelly

To remove the frozen jelly on a plate, you need to dip the mold in hot water, hold it for a few seconds to keep the walls warm, and turn it on the plate. However, do not overdo it so that the dessert does not lose shape. Metal containers are best suited for this, as they heat up faster.
  Why is jelly good?

The beneficial properties of jelly are not a number, and they are directly related to its composition. The dessert contains gelatin - an integral component of a delicious treat. This ingredient has a beneficial effect on the condition of hair, nails and joints, but, of course, with regular use.

Often, the gelatin in the dessert is replaced by pectin or an extract from seaweed - agar-agar. These foods are also good for the body. So, pectin has the ability to remove radionuclides and salts of heavy metals from the body, and agar-agar improves intestinal function.

In addition, jelly contains various amino acids, for example, glycine, so necessary for the restoration of cartilage and damaged bones. In addition, this component is an excellent prevention against arthritis.

The only harm jelly can do is cause tooth decay if the dessert is too sweet and you are not caring for your teeth properly. But seriously, then harming your body with this delicacy is possible only when it is prepared from low-quality ingredients.

Therefore, if you do not prepare jelly yourself, but buy mixtures that you only need to dilute with water, then carefully study the composition of the product. It should be simple, without any extra preservatives and dyes.

Bright, summer, refreshing, light and healthy dessert - all this can be said about the gelatin jelly recipe. It is prepared from countless berries and fruits, dairy products (kefir, sour cream, cottage cheese and milk) are used as a basis. The treat can have a portioned serving or be cooked in the form of a cake. The main thing is that it will not take a lot of time to create this delicious beauty, and all the subtleties will be described below.

In cooking, several gelling substances are used: pectin, which is obtained from fruits (citrus fruits, apples), agar-agar - the same substance of plant origin (from algae) and gelatin obtained from animal raw materials.

The latter product is most often found in recipes. Therefore, before you start how to make jelly from gelatin, you need to familiarize yourself with all the rules for its preliminary preparation.

First, the gelatin is soaked in cold water. The amount of water is taken depending on which product is used. Sheet gelatin can be poured with a very large amount of water, since then it can be easily drained. For powder or granules of the product, liquids are usually taken 3-5 times more than the weight of gelatin.

Swelling times may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. In this matter, it is worth focusing on the dates that are indicated on the package.

Melt the moist gelatin to a liquid state, but so that it does not lose its gelling properties, it must not be allowed to boil. Therefore, the best way to melt is a steam bath or a microwave “Defrost” mode. After that, gelatin is completely ready for further use.

Fruit Juice Jelly with Gelatin

For this dessert, fruit juices without pulp with a rich color, such as grape, pomegranate, orange or cherry, are suitable. Using them as a basis allows you to get a bright treat with a rich fruity taste.

In the formulation of jelly from juice, gelatin and liquid are taken in the following proportions:

  • 500 ml of any fruit juice;
  • 100 ml of water;
  • sugar to taste if the juice is not sweet enough;
  • 25 g of gelatin.

Cooking Technology:

  1. Pour water into the thickener and leave to swell according to the recommendations on the package.
  2. Sweeten the juice of fruits or berries to taste and send to the stove, wait for the boil and boil for about ten minutes.
  3. If the gelatin is already swollen, but there is water left, gently drain it. Remove the hot juice from the heat and transfer the gelatin into it, mix the jelly base until all the particles of gelatin have dispersed.
  4. Pour the slightly cooled mixture over the prepared molds. If desired, you can decorate with fresh fruit. Allow dessert to solidify completely in the refrigerator.

Jam recipe

Cherry, raspberry or other jam can be the basis of a refreshing summer treat - jam jelly. If there are pieces of fruit or whole berries in the workpiece, they will add zest to the dessert.

The list of ingredients required for jelly:

  • 200 ml of jam;
  • 100 g of sugar;
  • 500 ml of water;
  • 25 g of gelatin.

Working process:

  1. Prepare gelatin for further use (soak and dissolve to a liquid state) as indicated in the instructions on the package. The amount of water required for its preparation is not included in the list of ingredients.
  2. Pour the jam with the amount of water indicated in the recipe, add sugar and stir. Then boil the mixture for 10 minutes and cool to about 50 degrees.
  3. Combine the jam base and liquid gelatin, pour everything in the tins and put in the refrigerator for four hours until it sets completely. Serve with ice cream or whipped cream, garnish with a sprig of mint.

Cooking from sour cream

Sour cream jelly is undeservedly considered a high-calorie dessert, because contrary to popular belief, not fat homemade sour cream, but a store product with a fat content of 15% is ideal for its preparation.

To prepare a gentle sour cream dessert on gelatin, you will need:

  • 400 g low-fat sour cream;
  • 120 g of sugar;
  • 10 g vanilla sugar;
  • 30 g of gelatin.

The sequence of actions:

  1. So that sugar dissolves faster in sour cream, and gelatin does not curl in it, lumps all the ingredients of the dessert in advance from the refrigerator, allowing them to warm to room temperature.
  2. Beat sour cream with a mixer in a lush mass, adding a little vanilla and regular sugar.
  3. When all the grains are dispersed in the dairy product, transfer a couple of spoons of sweet sour cream to a container with prepared liquid gelatin, mix and combine with the total mass.
  4. Arrange the sour cream jelly in a bowl and put in the cold until it hardens. Part of the jelly can be dyed with cocoa in brown and laid out in a mold, like a multi-colored dough when baking a Zebra cake. You can also make a puff dessert, alternating fruits (any other than kiwi and pineapple) and jelly.

Homemade Milk Jelly

For the simplest milk jelly, only three components are needed: prepared gelatin, milk and sugar. But this low-calorie dessert can be diversified by adding various spices (vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon), chocolate or cocoa, coffee and fruits.

For classic homemade milk jelly, take:

  • 200 ml of milk;
  • 4 yolks;
  • 100 g of sugar;
  • 10 g of gelatin;
  • vanilla powder to taste.

Cooking:

  1. Put milk on the fire and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, pour sugar and vanillin into the yolks, grind everything until a homogeneous creamy mass.
  2. Pour hot milk to the yolks with sugar, stir until smooth. Then put the swollen gelatin and warm it up a bit with constant stirring, without heating the mass above 60 degrees.
  3. Pour the hot milk jelly into the prepared dry container and, after it has become room temperature, put it in the refrigerator until it is completely stabilized.

Jelly can be served in bowls, cups or other cookie cutters in which it hardens, or you can dip the cookie in hot water for a couple of minutes and gently remove the jelly on a plate. This creates more opportunities for spectacular presentation.
