Wine jelly – Another way to consume wine

WINE JELLY IS GOOD

Wine Jelly

I can eat wine now?

So wine jelly is awesome. Made more awesome by hot sauce.

Have you ever been really brave while buying wine and decided to try something new only to discover that your moment of spontaneity has resulted in a horrible bottle of foot wine? (foot wine is what I like to call bad tasting wine – simply because it usually smells like feet) What will you do with an entire bottle of wine?! Don’t fret little jelly beans, I can make it all better.

This little gem can be made with any red or white wine no matter how terrible it is. AND it makes a nice gift as well. If someone gave me wine jelly? Hello new best friend.

So let’s get to it!


Ingredients

  • 1 cup wine
  • 1  cup sugar – you can add more or less sugar to taste
  • 2 gelatin leaves – soak in water for 2 minutes before use


Step 1: In a small sauce pan bring the cup of wine to a boil.

Step 2: Add the sugar and stir continuously until dissolved. Let the mixture boil for another 2 minutes.

Step 3: Add the gelatine leaves that have been soaking in water to the hot wine mixture and stir in until dissolved completely.

Step 4: Pour into ramekins and refrigerate overnight until set.

ENJOY!

TIPS:

Top it with Sriracha hot sauce and serve with crackers and brie

Dip the ramekins into hot water for 3 seconds, then tip upside down to remove the jelly
