What is Gelatin?How is Gelatin used?Gelatin is used to thicken puddings, yogurt, gummy candies, fruit gelatin desserts, ice cream, marshmallows, and more.

Gelatin must first be dissolved in warm water before adding to a recipe. After dissolving in water, gelatin can then be mixed into any number of liquids or semi-solid mixtures.

Gelatin solidifies when cooled and generally requires refrigeration.
The concentration and grade of gelatin will determine the exact temperature at which it solidifies and melts.

Most gelatins have a melting point near body temperature, which provides a unique mouthfeel to the food in which it is used.

Boiling gelatin can break down its structure and ruin its solidifying properties.

Certain fruits, such as pineapple, guava, and papaya, contain enzymes can also inhibit gelatins ability to solidify.

The canning process typically destroys these enzymes, which means canned versions of these fruits can be successfully used with gelatin.
