Last time when I made
Osmanthus Jelly, I can only used store bought dried osmanthus. But this time I am fortunate to have some freshly picked flowers! Thanks to my friend Josephine Tse who has an osmanthus tree in her backyard.
上次當我做
桂花馬蹄糕時,是用市面上買到的乾桂花,但今次有幸我可以用新鮮的花去做!多謝我的老友記Jospehine,她家的後院有棵桂花樹。

Besides having fresh flowers, this time I use konjac powder. This combination is a perfect match. The transparency of the jelly showcase the delicate flowers vividly. A match made in heaven!
除了有鲜花之外,今次我選用了蒟蒻粉,它做出來的糕晶瑩剔透,更能顯出花朵的細緻,真是絕配!
Ingredients:
25g/2 tbsp konjac powder 蒟蒻粉
5 tbsp sugar 糖
1 1/2 cup water 水
2 tbsp fresh osmanthus flowers 新鮮桂花
1) Wash flowers. Drain and set aside.
2) Put konjac powder, sugar and water in a small pot and heat until it boils. Remove from heat and add the flowers.
3) Put in a mold and let it cool. Refrigerate for an hour. Unmold and serve.
桂花用水洗一洗,隔水。將蒟蒻粉,糖及水放鍋內煲至滾,熄火,加入桂花,倒入模內待冷再放雪柜約一小時便可食用。
Note:
The ratio of konjac powder, sugar and water can be adjusted according to your taste. More konjac powder and less water will give you a more solid jelly and jells up faster.
材料的份量及比例可隨個人口味調教。
