Eating jelly reminds me of children’s birthday party, but if you serve them in nice glasses like these lovely old champagne glasses it can be a classy dessert for grown ups as well! And it’s actually surprisingly easy to make jelly from scratch as well! Try this and I’m sure you will soon be creating your own favourite jelly. This recipe is from Margaret.
- 750 ml moscato
- 170 gm caster sugar
- 300 gm frozen berries
- rind and juice of 1 lemon and 1 orange.
- gelatin for setting 1 litre liquid
Combine moscato, sugar, berries, rinds, juices and 250 ml water in a saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 min. Strain liquid through a muslin-lined sieve, transfer back to pan and add gelatin already dissolved in hot water. Stir well, and divide into eight 250 ml-capacity serving glasses and refrigerate until set. ( 6 hours) .
Serve with vanilla custard and fresh berries.
