Milk Kanten Recipe

Milk Kanten Recipe

(Japanese Milk Jelly)

Ingredients:

½ ( oz/4g) kanten (jelly) stick

cup water

1 cup milk

½ cup sugar

¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

 

Method:

Soak kanten or jelly stick in plenty of water overnight or until softened.  Squeeze water out of kanten, then tear into pieces.  Put the pieces in a saucepan with cup water.  Simmer until kanten dissolves, stirring constantly.  When the mixture comes to a boil, stir in sugar.  Add milk, mixing well.  Just before boiling, remove the pan from heat.  Leave to cool for a few minutes, then add vanilla extract.  Moisten the inside of a square mould with water.  Pour the kanten mixture into the mould through a strainer or sieve.  Chill for about 2 hours until set.  Slide a knife around the edges to loosen, then remove from mould and cut into cubes to serve.
