nonartificially flavored gelatin


What bizarre names do you have for 'normal' foods 14
Virginia Tadrzynski My daughter spoke early and often, beginning at about 10 months. If she wanted to refer to something she didn't...

No. For any flavor, click on "more info" and then on "ingredients and usage."

Oils WAS:nonartificially flavored gelatin
Wayne Boatwright "Oil of cloves" used to be a standard dentistry element. Topical anaesthetic. Leaves your mouth tasting like about 20 megatons of Lavoris, the mouthwash, for a few hours. Yummmmmy...

Several particularly struck me.

"Brandy oil" is impossible. There's no oil in brandy to separate out. "Artificial Flavoring, Propylene Glycol. Fat Free & Sugar Free."

Champagne oil?

Make your own natural and unnatural flavored gelatins... Part of a column I wrote years ago.

Time out here for unflavored gelatin facts: * One packet weighs about 1/4 ounce and is a tablespoon. * One packet will gel from 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 cups liquid. * For molding and blocks, use less water so it's more solid. * To use, pour packet over cool liquid to soften and dissolve by adding boiling liquid, stirring until clear. Or, pour powder over cool water, let soak and microwave to near-boiling, stopping to stir until fully dissolved. * Calories - one packet runs around 30 calories. One cup sugar is about 770 calories. One packet artificial sweetener runs about 4 calories, and to my taste, Equal brand tastes best. Your call. You can substitute packets of artificial sweeteners for sugar but be aware that the total volume of dessert will be much reduced. A little trial and error here. For my taste, 8 packets of sweetener substituted for 1 cup sugar. That means a 2-cups-liquid, one packet recipe can, in total calories, range from a low of about 80 calories (one packet, 8 packets sweetener, low-calorie liquids like lemon juice, flavored waters or extracts with water) to a high of over 900 calories (one packet, a cup sugar, sweet juices).

LEMON GELATIN 8 servings 2 packets or 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin 1 cup cold water 2 1/2 cups boiling water 1 1/4 cups sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup lemon juice grated rind of 1 lemon Pour the gelatin onto the cold water and let soften for a minute or two. Stir into the hot water to fully dissolve. Add remaining ingredients, pour into bowl or mold and chill for at least 3 hours until set.

ORANGE GELATIN 8 servings 2 packets or 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin 1/2 cup cold water 1 cup boiling water 1 to 1 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup lemon juice 3 cups orange juice grated rind of 1 orange As above. Sugar varies depending on how sweet the juice is. Try the kind with pulp in it.

STUPID-FLAVORED JUICE DRINK GELATIN This will work with any fruit juice (except fresh pineapple which prevents jelling; canned will work), fruit juice drink, fake fruit juice drink or nowhere near fruit juice drink. Imagine a layered dessert that looked like this: fake blue raspberry, puzzling green Gatorade, purple Hawaiian Punch, store-brand white grape, mostly juice red grape juice cocktail, chemistry set pink lemonade and actual orange juice. Hey, hey. Watch the language. 8 servings 2 packets or 2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin 1/2 cup cold water 1 1/2 cups boiling water 1 cup sweetened fruit juice 2 tablespoons lemon juice sugar cut up fruit (optional) Make a few strange layered desserts like these and youÕll be the hit of the 9-year-old social set. TheyÕll think youÕre most cool. And, yes, theyÕre saying that again.

WINE GELATIN - FOR GROWNUPS This will still have alcohol in it and will make your ears get nice and warm. You might want to keep it away from the kids. The sweetness of the wine will determine how much sugar you'll want to put in. Taste as you go. Have a designated driver. I got the original recipe for this one in the 70's from friends named Tom and Vickie Powers who said it was an old Victorian recipe. Since she gave it to me and since she said it was Victorian, I named it Victoria's Secret. Oh, stop. It was well before I ever heard of them. Makes 8 servings 2 tablespoons gelatin 1/4 cup cold water 3/4 cup boiling water 1/2 cup or more sugar 3/4 cup orange juice or orange-flavored water 6 tablespoons lemon juice (optional) 2 cups semi-dry or sweet wine grapes For interesting variations: make half the batch with red wine and half with white - fill wine glbuttes half full of one until lightly set, then add the other for a two-color dessert. Or, fill the glbutt halfway and let it set, drop in a grape and fill the rest of the way with gelatin mixture - the grape will appear to be suspended. Pretty. Serve with a nice dab of whipped cream.
