How do you make blue jelly?

Ingredients:

- 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin powder

- 1/4 cup of cold water

- 1 cup of boiling water

- 1 cup of sugar

- 1/4 cup of lemon juice

- Blue food coloring (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Gelatin: In a small bowl, whisk together the gelatin powder and cold water until dissolved. Set aside for 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes spongy and thickens slightly.

2. Dissolve the Sugar: In a medium saucepan, combine the boiling water and sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely.

3. Add the Gelatin Mixture: Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the saucepan from the heat and add the gelatin mixture. Stir well until the gelatin is fully dissolved.

4. Add Lemon Juice and Food Coloring: Add the lemon juice and blue food coloring, if desired, to the saucepan and stir until combined.

5. Pour into Mold: Pour the blue jelly mixture into a mold of your choice (individual molds or a larger mold for a whole jelly). Refrigerate the jelly for at least 4 hours or overnight, until it is completely set and firm.

6. Unmold and Serve: Once the jelly is set, dip the mold briefly in warm water to loosen the edges. Gently unmold the jelly onto a serving plate and slice it into desired shapes. Serve your blue jelly chilled.

Enjoy your homemade blue jelly!
