How to Make 100% Fresh Strawberry Gummy Jelly - Video Recipe

Very healthy and refreshing sweet treat :)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsQBzIqVe8M

By making this for a few times, I realized that it is impossible to make elastic gummy candies (like store-bought ones) using fruit juice with TOO MUCH PULP X( Anyhow, they were great and addictive. But sorry these are not gummy candies but maybe gummy jelly?! :3 If you want to make elastic gummy candies, please use regular transparent juice with no pulp. Clear apple juice works great!!! I think I was too greedy using fresh strawberries. haha



---------------------------------
100% Strawberry Gummy Jelly

Difficulty: Very Easy
Time: 1hr (incl. cooling time)
Number of servings: N/A

Necessary Equipment:
blender / mixer
ice cube tray or candy mold, silicone is better

Ingredients:
A
150g strawberries
4 tbsp. sugar or sugar substitute
2 tbsp. water
B
30g (1.0oz.) unflavored gelatin powder
90ml water

Directions:
1. Lightly coat an ice cube tray or a candy mold with cooking oil.
2. Place A in a blender / mixer and process until smooth.
3. Put B in a small bowl. Place it over a bowl of hot water and stir until gelatin dissolves. *You can microwave for 30 seconds or so to dissolve the gelatin.
4. Place the strawberry mixture in a small saucepan over medium heat. When the mixture begins to simmer, stop the heat, add the gelatin mixture, and
continue stirring until gelatin completely dissolves.
5. Pour into the prepared tray and put in the fridge for about 30 minutes until completely set.

Unlike regular gummies, you must keep them in the fridge or they get soft…

If you want to use fruit juice, heat 240ml fruit juice. Then mix 4 tbsp. sugar and 30g gelatin.

NEW iSi Twist'n Sparkle Beverage Carbonation System (How to Make Soda) - Video Recipe

Insert charger, twist and sparkle!!!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWddNNiPypE

In this video, I sparkled:
- Water 水
- POM Juice (100% Orange Juice) ポンジュース

As for the juices, I think 300ml is enough. When I sparkled 750ml... it exploded! and the same for 350ml...

5. Place the filled sparkling bottle on a stable surface. Screw the sparkling wand into the sparkling bottle until the gas is seen flowing into the bottle. Wait about ONE MINUTE until you no longer hear the hissing.
6. When the venting has ended, slowly unscrew the sparkling wand and remove it from the bottle.
7. Enjoy your fizzy beverage!

Cold is key!!! Pre-chill liquids for maximum fizz.

Ikanago no Kugini 2013

I am posting this every year XD LoL

"Ikanago no Kugini" (いかなごのくぎ煮) is my favorite tsukudani (food boiled in soy sauce) made with Ikanago (sand eel/sand lance).

Ikanago no Kugini is a famous Tsukudani in Hyogo prefecture. My grandma, who lives there cooks a few kilograms of Ikanago no Kugini every year for us in Tokyo.

It is usually cooked and eaten around the end of February or early March, when the fish is about an inch long. After its season, Ikanago goes deep in the sea where is cooler. Then it goes under the sand and aestivate.

This year she sent us in the beginning of March again, along with Kuki wakame no tsukudani (stem of wakame cooked with enoki and shiitake mushrooms)!



They both go great with rice!!!
