Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water Divided into ½ cup hot and ½ cup cold for preparation.
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin Equivalent to 1 packet if using Knox brand, ensures proper setting.

  1. Heat ½ cup of water until steaming, ensuring it does not boil.

  5. Carefully transfer the gelatin mixture into your chosen glass dish or silicone mold.
  6. Refrigerate the dish or mold for a minimum of 2 hours, or until the gelatin is completely set and firm.
  7. Once set, cut the gelatin into desired cubes and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
