This recipe is from a book filled with old-time recipes. It’s a healthy version of “jello” pudding – fun for the hot days we have been getting.
Ingredients:
1¾ pounds strawberries, washed
4 cups water
4 teaspoons agar powder
1¼ cups apple juice concentrate
Directions:
1. Remove any stems and cut the berries in half.
2. Place the water, agar powder, and apple juice concentrate in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 3-5 minutes or until the agar powder is dissolved.
3. Turn up the heat and add the berries. Stir carefully. Bring to nearly a boil. The fruit will begin to bleed their colors into the liquid and just begin to break open. Do not overcook!
4. Remove from the heat and pour into a round pudding basin. Refrigerate until set.
5. Cut into wedges and serve.
