Milk and Fruit Jelly 牛乳と果物のゼリー [English and Japanese]

Milk and Fruit Jelly

I noticed that I had two packs of gelatine when I was cleaning my kitchen shelf the other day. I needed to use them before I forgot about them. I decided to make jelly with milk and fruit. My husband can't eat most fruits due to his allergy issues, but he can eat oranges and canned fruit. So, I determined to use oranges and canned peaches.

I remember enjoying milk and fruit jelly during my elementary school lunches when I was young. I prefer less salty and sugarless foods, much like those served in school lunches or hospital meals, where nutrition is carefully considered. My memory of school milk and fruit jelly is of a simple and delicious treat. It was also very easy to make.

Ingredients

・500ml Milk
・2 Oranges
・1 can of peaches with juice
・2 packs of gelatine
・2 tablespoons of sugar (or more)

The preparation time is 20 minutes, including the preparation time. (After making it, leave it in the fridge overnight)

Peel the oranges and cut them in half, leaving the skins on.
Open the can and retain the juice.

Heat the milk in a microwave oven for about 1-2 minutes. Add the gelatine packs and mix them. Then, add the sugar and juice, and mix well.

Oh, my furry supervisor is checking on me. He said if you prefer a sweeter taste, add more sugar.

Place the oranges and peaches in a glass container. Pour the milk over them. Then, refrigerate the mixture overnight.

Done! It looks pretty. If you like strawberries, kiwis, or pineapples, feel free to add them. And remember, if you're using canned fruit, don't forget to keep the juice from the cans.

牛乳と果物のゼリー

先日、キッチンの棚の掃除をしていたときにゼラチンが２パック残っていることに気がつきました。忘れてしまう前に使わなければなりません。そこで、牛乳と果物を使ってゼリーを作ることにしました。主人には果物アレルギーがあるのですが、オレンジや缶の果物は食べられます。今回はオレンジと桃の缶詰を使うことにしました。

小学校の給食で出てくる牛乳と果物のゼリーが好きだったのを思い出します。私は塩分や糖分が控えめの方が好きなので、学校給食や病院食などの味付けが好きです。給食や病院食は栄養士さんがきちんと栄養の計算して作っているメニューなので安心して食べることができます。給食で出た牛乳と果物のゼリーはとてもシンプルで甘さ控えめのものでした。作るのも簡単です。
