Description
- Hoosier Hill Farm Clear Jel is a modified cornstarch that aids in thickening a variety of recipes. Our classic cook-type formulation has a great tolerance for high temperatures. This makes it ideal for canning fruit pie fillings and making smooth gravies and sauces.
- Clear Jel works well with all types of ingredients, including acidic ones, and has a strong stability during freezing and thawing.
- How to Use: When using Clear Jel to thicken a pie filling or compote, we recommend first mixing it with an equal amount of water. To thicken one batch of fruit pie filling (enough for a 9-inch pie), start by mixing 1 tablespoon of Clear Jel with 1 tablespoon of water. Use a fork or whisk to make sure the mixture is smooth. Once combined, add the mixture directly to your pot of filling. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until bubbles appear. The filling will begin to thicken once removed from heat.
- For thickening pie filling, the recommendation is 1 tbsp Clear Jel Cook Type to 4 cups of berries and 1 tbsp for six apples.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. We do not recommend refrigeration or freezing thickeners.
