Orange Blueberry Jelly Recipe
I was very much inspired by Tze of Awayofmind Bakery House when she posted her Orange Jelly. I like her method of boiling the jelly. That is boil the water first then add in the orange juice after turning off the heat. I've tried to boil the orange juice and water together before and very often the jelly turned out having a bitter taste. So I'm really happy with Tze's method. Thanks Tze! I've tweaked the recipe by adding some gelatin powder into the jelly which I always did to most of my jelly's recipes. This is because I prefer my jelly to have a soft jello texture rather than a firm agar agar jelly texture. So here is my cool treat Orange Blueberry Jelly and hope that you'll like it as much as I do, especially in this scorching hot weather.
Orange Blueberry Jelly
- 300ml Fresh orange juice
- 1 tbsp Lime juice
- 450ml Water
- 2 tsp Agar agar powder + 1/2tsp Gelatin
- 100g Sugar or to taste
- adequate fresh blueberries
- Use a skewer gently push the blueberries down into the semi-set jelly if they are still floating
Method:
Add sugar into 450ml water in a pot, together with the agar agar powder and gelatin. Stir the sugar till dissolved under medium heat. Lower heat and keep stirring for 2 minutes and remove from heat. Pour in orange juice and lime juice and stir well for another 1 minutes and pass through a sift.
Pour half of the orange liquid into desired mould and drop few blueberries into it. Wait till jelly semi-set so the blueberries will stick to the jelly and not float up. Fill the mould with the remaining orange liquid.
Leave jelly to cool completely before chilling in the fridge.
