easy guide to gel cookery cooking with gelatine is as easy as 1-2-3.

1 An envelope of gelatine will gel 1 pint of liquid. First, choose the liquid you will use—water, juice, broth, milk or other as designated in recipes which follow. Sprinkle gelatine from the envelope over ½ cup of cold liquid and let stand a few minutes to soften. If sugar is to be added, stir sugar with the gelatine before you begin. (If 1 tablespoon or more of sugar is added, the gelatine-sugar mixture may be softened and dissolved directly in hot liquid.)

2 Stir softened gelatine over medium heat until mixture is clear and gelatine dissolved, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and add remaining liquid or, for new quick-gel method, add frozen juice, fruit, etc.

3 Pour into mold or serving dish, chill until set. This takes 2 to 4 hours, or may be cut down to ½ hour or less when made the new quick-gel way. Smaller molds set faster.
