Is gelatin useful?
Gelatine is useful for the whole organism as a whole: if you regularly use it, you may notice that your hair, nails and skin began to look much better and more beautiful.

Gelatin: caloric value
Gelatin is an extract from the bones of animals, and it is practically pure protein. Calories in it 355 per 100 grams - but do not forget that in cooking, we bred it approximately 6-8 times (for one tablespoon of gelatin - 6-8 tablespoons of water), which means that for 100 grams of the finished product falls from 10 up to 40 calories. Of course, the caloric content of the product will add sugar and products, on the basis of which you make jelly, but if you make the product not too sweet or add sugar substitutes, it will remain low-calorie.
Preparation of gelatin
Most often all dishes based on gelatin are prepared equally. Gelatin is poured with water (how many gelatins should you need-calculate yourself, considering that it turns into a jelly the amount of liquid 6-8 times its volume) and give a swell, then dissolve in a water bath or in an ordinary microwave for only 30-40 seconds, and then add to the fruit juice or meat dish, whichever is decided to cook.
Gelatin at home can also be used for dessert, which generally does not contain calories except those that are in gelatin. For this, prepare the jelly ... from the tea. From delicious tea, perhaps berry or fruit. This amazing delicacy sometimes requires a long search for a variety that suits your taste, but the result is worth it.
