Making jelly with natural colors

We have seen many people that makes jelly at their home but with artificial food colors. Today we will be seeing that which natural food colors can be used to make jellies and also their tremendous health benefits.

Colors

There is various natural food colorants for giving the color to food but for making jellies you can use

  • Gardenia yellow
  • Gardenia blue
  • Beet red
  • Annatto color

But the question is how to prepare jelly with these natural colors?

Here are the answers. There are few steps to follow in order to make jellies from the natural food colors.

Making jelly

Take a pan & fill two cups of water

Now put 1 cup of sugar, After that stir it until the sugar dissolve completely in that water.

Now you will be needing to add Agar Agar powder 1/tsp & again stir it until that powder dissolves completely

Boiling

Next step after putting all these substances is boiling that water on medium flame for 10 minutes

Now it depends on you which color you want to use to make jelly as we discuss earlier that we have 4 natural pigments that we are using to make jelly so we will be making four different colors of jellies with the same water but if you want to use 1 color it's ok.

As we are making four different jellies, we will be dividing that mixture of water into four small bowls

Giving Colors

After dividing the water portion equally into every bowl, we will add gardenia yellow, gardenia blue, beet red & anatto color separately to each bowl so we can have four different colors & flavors as well

Amount of color that we will be adding is 0.5g per bowl

Freezing these jellies

Final step is to refrigerate these bowls for 15 minutes

Take out these bowls from your refrigerator after 15 minutes.

Now with the help of knife cut these jellies in the little form of cubes or as you like or as you wants to have .

Your jellies with natural colors are ready enjoy!
