Jeleu de fructe rosii/Red fruits jelly
Se intampla uneori sa tii in frigider diverse alimente pe care le-ai cumparat fara un scop precis sau care au ramas dupa ce ai facut o reteta. Ei bine, eu m-am ales cu trei rodii mari si o mana de fructe de padure congelate.
Marturisesc faptul ca sunt mare fan suc de rodii dar inca nu am descoperit o metoda de a-l prepara fara a transforma bucataria intr-un camp de lupta. Oricate filmulete am vazut pe internet cu metode eficiente de desfacere a acestui fruct, se pare ca pentru mine nu merge nimic. Cu toate astea am reusit sa curat cumva cele trei rodii mari pe care le aveam si sa le transform impreuna cu fructele de padure intr-un desert acrisor.
It happens sometimes to keep in the fridge various foods which were bought without a precise purpose or which remained after you cooked some other recipe. Well, I had three big pomegranates and some frozen forest fruits.
I must admit I am a big fan of pomegranate fresh juice but I still didn’t found a method to prepare it without transforming my kitchen in a fighting field. I saw many short movies on the internet with efficient methods of cutting and peeling these fruits but it seems that nothing is suitable for me. Despite this I managed somehow to cut the three pomegranates that I had in my fridge and to transform them together with the forest fruits in a sweet and sour dessert.
Ingrediente:
– 3 rodii mari
-200 g fructe de padure
-5 linguri de zahar
-50 ml apa
-5g gelatina
Pentru decor:
-biscuiti speculoos
-decoratiuni din caramel (din 100g zahar)
Ingredients:
-3 big pomegranates
-200g forest fruits
-5 tablespoons of sugar
-50 ml water
-5g of gelatin
For decorations:
– speculoos biscuits
-caramel decorations (made of 100 g sugar)
Am pus rodiile, fructele de padure, zaharul si apa intr-un vas la fiert, timp de aproximativ 40 de minute. Dupa ce fructele au fiert, compozitia a fost strecurata si pasata printr-o sita.
Gelatina am hidratat-o cu o lingura de apa intr-un pahar. Apoi am adaugat-o in vasul in care am pus piureul de fructe si am amestecat bine. Compozitia se incalzeste usor timp de cateva minute. Atentie-nu se va fierbe deoarece gelatina isi pierde propietatile.
Jeleul obtinut se pune in recipiente monoportii si se lasa la racit. Apoi se decoreaza cu biscuiti sfaramati si caramel.
I put the pomegranates, forest fruits, sugar and water in a pot, to boil, for about 40 minutes. After they boiled, the composition was strained and mashed through a strain.
I hydrated the gelatin with a tablespoon of water, in a glass. I put the gelatin in the pot where earlier I put the fruit puree and I stirred well. The composition will be warmed for few minutes. Pay attention-you mustn’t boil the composition because the gelatin will loose its properties.
The jelly that was obtained will be put in mono portion recipients and will be left to cool off. When is ready, the jelly can be decorated with biscuits crumbs and caramel decorations.
Pofta buna!
Bon appetit!
