Instructions

Step 1

Soak the agar in water: Put the agar and water in a saucepan and let it soak for a few minutes. Soaking helps the agar dissolve more easily when heated.

Step 2

Heat the mixture: Place the saucepan on the stove and bring the agar mixture to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir well to prevent the agar from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Step 3

Mix the passion fruit ingredients: In another bowl, mix the passion fruit pulp, water, and Jerusalem artichoke syrup. Combine well. Make sure the syrup is fully dissolved for a smooth texture.

Step 4

Combine with agar: Add the passion fruit mixture to the agar in the saucepan and stir until smooth. Stir continuously to ensure a uniform consistency.

Step 5

Pour into molds: Pour the mixture into molds of your choice and place them in the refrigerator to harden. Use silicone molds for easy removal of gummies.

Step 6

If using strawberries: Mash the strawberries with a hand blender until they form a puree. Follow the same steps as with the passion fruit mixture. For a smoother texture, strain the strawberry puree to remove seeds.

Faq

  • Can I use other fruits besides passion fruit and strawberries?

    Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different fruits like mango, raspberry, or even mixed berry for unique flavors.

  • How long do the gummies take to set?

    The gummies usually take about 1-2 hours to set in the fridge. For best results, leave them a little longer if you can.

    Certainly! You can add a little more or less Jerusalem artichoke syrup depending on your taste preference.
