Homemade jelly

Overview

The jelly can be made with mung bean starch, broad bean starch, or pea starch. I have never made other starches, so I don’t know if they are reliable. I used broad bean starch. I used one-third of the amount of ordinary drinking water, and added cucumber shreds to make up a plate.

  8. The red oil that is essential for mixing jelly cannot be omitted. Adding more will make the taste better. The simplest method is to heat the oil, put the crushed chili pepper or chili powder into a bowl, and wait until the oil temperature is about 80 degrees, then add it to the bowl.
