How to cook jelly from starch

Kissel is a great affordable dessert. Kissel can be cooked from fresh and frozen berries and fruits, from syrups and from milk. Cooking jelly will be easier if you use berry syrups, fruit juices or jams instead of berries and fruits. Each housewife can independently regulate the density of jelly by adding more or less starch. When preparing jelly, consider some of the nuances:

- for the preparation of jelly of medium density, it is correct to take the following proportions: 2 tablespoons of starch per 1 liter of liquid. Taking 3 tablespoons of starch, you will get a thick jelly;

- stir starch only in cold water;

- take 1 glass of water, diluting 2 tablespoons of starch in it;

- start diluting starch at the moment of boiling syrup. If you dilute the starch earlier, it will settle to the bottom of a glass of water while the syrup boils;

- strain the diluted starch through a sieve and immediately add in a thin stream to the boiling syrup;

- add diluted starch all at once, and not in parts. At the same time, stir the syrup constantly;

- do not boil the jelly for a long time, as it will again become liquid from a long boil;

- Kissel can be served both cold and hot;

- to prevent the formation of a film on the jelly, it can be sprinkled on top with a thin layer of sugar.
