Long pepper gel
Servings 30 dishes
Ingredients
- 600 g apple juice
- 6 g long peppers
- 3 g agar powder
Instructions
- Pour the apple juice in a saucepan together with the long peppers. Reduce it till the total weight is 300 grams.
- I always weigh my empty pan first, that makes checking the reduction progress a lot easier. My empty pan weighs 1040 grams, so that plus 300 grams means the total weight needs to be 1040 + 300 grams.
- Once reduced while stirring add the agar powder and bring it to a boil for at least 30 seconds.
- Now pass it through a fine sieve into a bowl and let it set in your fridge. Then transfer it into a blender and blend it till smooth.Â
- To bring the gel to the next level I always vacuum it. Do this in a vacuum chamber and vacuum the gel a 100%. This results in a clear and more intense gel. Then transfer it into a piping bottle and keep it in your fridge for later.
