Ingredients
- ¼ cup filtered water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1–2 inches turmeric, fresh, sliced
- 2 packets unflavored gelatin powder (7.2g packets)
Directions
- Combine filtered water and turmeric slices in a small bowl.
- Microwave for 1 minute (or heat in a pot over medium heat until small bubbles appear).
- Strain out turmeric slices with a fine mesh strainer, then add in the honey and lemon juice.
- Microwave/heat for another 30 seconds to make hot, then whisk in both gelatin packets together.
- Whisk together again before pouring, then pour mixture into silicone mold and place in refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Qualities
- Texture: Chewy
- Scent Level: 1/10
- Spice Level: 0/10
Tips
- Both packets of gelatin powder should be added at the same time because the gelatin sets/hardens quickly and the longer you whisk the liquid, the quicker it cools.
- Water can be replaced with any other liquid such as fruit juice, tea, or bone broth.
- Add more liquid to achieve a soft gelatin texture (add up to 2 cups water, though this will not work in bite sized molds, a large dish or mold will be needed).
- Turmeric can be omitted. Other ingredients can be infused to create a unique taste, such as freshly torn mint leaves or ginger root. Do not use dry seasonings as they will not dissolve/mix and leave a layer on the base of the gummy.
- Honey can be adjusted as needed if a sweet taste is desired, or it can be substituted with another sweetener such as stevia, sugar, or monk fruit.
