Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a food processor or blender, puree the strawberries with 1/2 cup of water until smooth.
  2. Press the strawberry puree through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup to strain out the seeds.
  3. If necessary, add a little more water to the strained puree to ensure you have enough liquid to dissolve the gelatin properly.
  4. Sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the strawberry liquid in a saucepan and let it stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
  5. Place the saucepan over low heat and stir gently until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
  6. Stir in the powdered artificial sweetener until fully dissolved.
  7. Pour the mixture into individual molds or a large serving dish.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the mixture is firmly set.
  9. To serve, unmold if using individual molds by dipping the bottom in warm water for a few seconds.

Note

For best results, use fresh, ripe strawberries for the most vibrant flavor and color.

If you prefer a smoother texture, ensure you strain the puree thoroughly to remove all seeds.

This dessert can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

You can substitute the artificial sweetener with honey or agave nectar if you prefer natural sweeteners, though this will affect the vegan status if not careful with other ingredients.
