Orange jelly

Thanks to modern technologies, the process of preparing many products is much easier and reduces to minimal time costs. Take, for example, the orange jelly of industrial production. To prepare it, all that is necessary is a bag with a dry semi-finished product and a sufficient amount of ordinary drinking water. Dilute the mixture with boiled cooled water, leave gelatin for half an hour to swell, heat it, and then leave it in the cold to set. That's it, no mountains of dirty dishes for you, and amber sweet orange jelly is ready!

And it is even easier to buy ready-made orange jelly in plastic jars, which is always available, and the price is quite real. Thanks to the small volumes and huge assortment, you can pamper yourself not only with these orange-based treats, but also try other types of jelly - lemon, strawberry, cherry, grape, apple, kiwi. . . In general, the choice is great.

However, despite the availability of the store product, many hostesses still prefer to cook orange jelly with their own hands, using fresh juicy orange fruits. In fact, the process of making a homemade treat is completely simple - even a child can cope with it if desired. In addition, natural orange jelly is much more useful, since it will definitely contain neither dyes that give the product an attractive appearance, nor stabilizers, nor preservatives or any other harmful artificial additives.

To make homemade orange jelly, you need fresh oranges themselves, from which you should squeeze juice, sugar, the amount of which can be controlled according to your taste, and gelatin, which is much easier to find than the same pectin or agar agar. As a result, the time spent preparing this fragrant dessert more than pays off with the great health benefits and gratitude of your loved ones.

In addition, rather traditional orange jelly can be prepared in rather unusual ways. For example, if you pour it not into cremans or pials, but the shell of the orange itself. After the jelly sets, the fruit with the unusual contents is cut into serving wedges, revealing not quite standard flesh. Such an exotic dish will surely amuse children and create them not only a great mood, but also a tangible benefit in the form of enough vitamin C.
