Notes
- Melting agar agar – I usually boil the strips well until they turn clear so the jelly sets smooth without any rough bits.
- Work fast – I have noticed the mixture gets thick fast once mixed, so you can pour without waiting.
- Sweetness – I usually taste the juice first because some oranges are too sour. You can add sugar accordingly.
- Straining – I sometimes strain the agar agar liquid when I feel it has small pieces. You can do that for clean finish.
- Setting choices – I have tried cups, molds, and even trays, so you can choose whichever you feel easy.
