Rose Peach Gelee Recipes

ROSé-PEACH GELéE

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups water and sugar in a small saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Let gelatin stand 1 minute to soften.
• Cook over moderate heat, gently stirring occasionally, just until sugar and gelatin are dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in wine, schnapps, and remaining cup water. Pour into a 10-cup mold and chill, covered, until firm, at least 10 hours.
• Dip mold in hot water a few seconds, then invert a plate over gelée and flip gelée onto plate.

ROSE WATER GELEES

Steps:

• Grease an 8-inch square pan with vegetable oil.
• Place 2/3 cup water in a small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin on top; let stand until softened, about 15 minutes.
• Combine remaining 1 cup water, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil syrup, covered, for 3 minutes.
• Uncover saucepan and attach a candy thermometer to the side; continue cooking syrup until the temperature reaches 238 degrees F (114 degrees C), about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in gelatin mixture carefully until completely dissolved. Mix in rose water and red food coloring.
• Pour syrup into the greased pan. Let stand at room temperature until gelled, about 4 hours. Cover with plastic wrap and chill, 8 hours to overnight.
• Cut gelled mixture into 1-inch squares. Dust with cornstarch.

PEACH GELEE CANDY

Steps:

• Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with plastic wrap.
• Combine peaches and lime juice in a blender. Puree until very smooth.
• Pour into a saucepan over medium heat, stir in 1/2 cup sugar, and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring continuously, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar and pectin. Using a thermometer, heat to 205 degrees F (96 degrees C) and cook, stirring continuously, for another 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Pour peach puree into the prepared baking dish. Shake gently and tap on the countertop to remove any air bubbles. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Sprinkle about half the 1/2 cup of sugar over a silicone baking mat and invert the peach gelee on top. Remove plastic wrap and sprinkle top with sugar. Trim off any uneven edges and cut gelee into 25 squares.
