Gelatin dessert is a type of dessert made with sweetened and flavored gelatin. This kind of dessert is first recorded by Hannah Glasse in her 18th century book The Art of Cookery, and it can be enjoyed on its own or used in a variety of recipes.
Etymology[edit]
The term "gelatin" comes from the Latin word "gelatus" which means "jellied, frozen." It was first used in the 17th century to describe the process of making jellies.
History[edit]
Gelatin has been used in desserts since the time of Hannah Glasse, who wrote about it in her book The Art of Cookery. She described a method of boiling the bones of animals until a jelly-like substance was produced. This was then sweetened, flavored, and allowed to set into a jelly.
In the 19th century, industrial production of gelatin made it more accessible and it became a popular ingredient in desserts. In the 20th century, pre-packaged flavored gelatin mixes such as Jell-O became popular.
Preparation[edit]
To prepare a gelatin dessert, gelatin is mixed with water, sugar, and other flavorings. The mixture is then cooled until it sets into a jelly-like consistency. Some recipes may also include fruit, cream, or other ingredients.
Varieties[edit]
There are many varieties of gelatin dessert, including fruit-flavored jellies, cream-filled desserts, and layered desserts. Some popular flavors include strawberry, lemon, and lime.
Health considerations[edit]
While gelatin desserts are low in fat, they are high in sugar. They also contain animal by-products, which may be a concern for vegetarians or vegans. However, there are vegan alternatives to gelatin available.
