i wanted to buy blancmange a while ago so i googled ut and found green's website. they sell so many things which are difficult to get these days - creme caramel "mix" for instance - so i'm well stocked up now.
i looked for black cherry jelly and i found it at morrisons but can't find pineapple anywhere.
I seem to remember that real pineapple stops jelly from setting?
yup, pineapple, kiwi and paw paw all contain a chemical that breaks the long protein chains in gelatine. Its those long chains that trap the liquid and make jelly set. the juices from those fruits can aslo be added to marinades to tenderise meat. Geat care is needed in their use though because they can affect how warfarin works.
