Tips for making jelly without separation and clumping
- There is a small tip to help the jelly cook better and not clump together: you should mix the jelly powder with sugar first before cooking it with water.
- You should soak the jelly in water beforehand so that it expands and dissolves more easily when cooked.
- For layered jelly, you should wait for the first layer to set (usually for thin jelly layers, it will take about 10 – 15 minutes), slightly firm on the surface, before adding the second layer on top. Avoid adding the second layer while the first layer is still loose; they will quickly blend together.
- Or if the jelly layer has completely set, you can use a toothpick to poke evenly on the surface before pouring the next layer in.
Tips for storing jelly mooncakes
- You should cover the jelly tightly and store it in the refrigerator for 3 – 5 days.
- Do not store the mooncakes at room temperature because jelly can spoil very easily.
