Ingredients for 14 Servings:
- 1.5 liters of kefir (6.3 cups)
- 3 tablespoons liquid honey (45 ml)
- 40g gelatin (1.4 oz)
- 4 tablespoons cherry syrup (60 ml)
- 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (15 ml)
- 200g sour cream (7 oz)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla (5 ml)
Instructions:
Prepare the Gelatin:
Dissolve the gelatin in half a cup of cold boiled water (120 ml) and let it sit for 20 minutes.
Mix the Base:
Pour the kefir into a large bowl, add the sour cream, and mix thoroughly. Add the honey and whisk the mixture until smooth.
Dissolve the Gelatin:
Heat the gelatin over low heat, stirring constantly until fully dissolved. Let it cool slightly, then pour it into the kefir mixture. Add the vanilla and lemon zest, and mix well.
Create the Layers:
Separate one-third of the mixture into a different bowl and add the cherry syrup. Whisk thoroughly until you achieve a uniform pink color.
Layering Process:
Pour a thin layer of the white kefir mixture into a rectangular mold and refrigerate for 15 minutes until set.
Remove the mold from the refrigerator, pour a layer of the pink mixture on top, and return it to the fridge. Continue layering, alternating between white and pink mixtures, refrigerating each layer for 10-15 minutes until set.
Once all layers are set, refrigerate for an additional hour to ensure the jelly is completely firm.
Serve:
Before serving, invert the mold onto a plate and slice the jelly into pieces. Garnish with fresh berries, nuts, or candied fruit as desired.
Enjoy this delicate and creamy Kefir Jelly, perfect for any festive occasion or a delightful treat on a warm day. This layered dessert is sure to impress with its refreshing taste and beautiful presentation.
