Amount Measure Ingredient Preparation Method
4 cups fruit juice
2 tablespoons agar
1 1/2 tablespoons kuzu
dash vanilla extract
1 pint berries or other fruit optional
In a saucepan, bring 3 3/4 cups of the juice to a simmer. Sprinkle agar
flakes on top of the heated juice; allow to simmer for 3 minutes with the
flakes floating on top to soften the agar, then stir the agar flakes into the
juice. Simmer 5 minutes more, stirring well.
Mix the kuzu with the remaining 1/4 cup juice. Stir to blend out lumps.
Pour the kuzu mixture into the simmering juice & agar in the saucepan. Stir
until thick & clear. Add the fruit. Wait for it to rise to the surface.
Turn off the heat. Add the vanilla extract.
Allow to cool a bit. Stir to distribute fruit evenly. Chill until set.

Notes: Vary flavors of fruit juice (berry, cherry, peach etc).
Select fruit that matches or complements fruit flavor.
