Red Fruit Jelly Dessert Food

ROTE GRUTZE (RED FRUIT JELLY)

Steps:

• In a small pot bring the fruit juice or water, vanilla and sugar to a boil.
• Meanwhile combine starch and cold water in a small bowl and stir to mix.
• When water is just starting to boil, add starch mixture.
• Let it come to a full boil; make sure to stir well as the starch will form lumps if you don't.
• Mix in berries and turn off the heat.
• Let your pot stand on the hot stove top for one or two more minutes, stirring once or twice.
• Pour everything into a bowl and chill until the jelly has thickened. This might take one or two hours depending on how thick you want your jelly to be.
• Serve with topping of your choice, or plain, and enjoy!

RED WINE JELLY

Steps:

• Put the red wine, sugar, star anise, clove, cinnamon stick, allspice, vanilla pod and seeds in a medium saucepan. Stir together, then heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Turn up the heat and boil for 20 mins until reduced and syrupy. Strain into a small, sterilised jam jar and leave to cool completely. Will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month.
