What Is Jelly?
Jelly first became popular in 18th century England, and reached its heyday in the 1970s. It is traditionally made with gelatin – collagen derived from animal products – and fruit like strawberries or raspberries. Jelly is famous for its wibbly-wobbly texture, and can be eaten on its own, with ice cream, or as part of a trifle. Plant-based jelly recipes (like this one!) swap out the gelatin for agar agar or xanthan gum.
