When moist heat is applied to Gelatin, it undergoes a process called hydration, where the granules absorb water and swell. As the temperature increases, the gelatin proteins begin to denature, unraveling and forming a gel-like structure. This transformation allows gelatin to dissolve and create a viscous solution that can set into a gel upon cooling. Ultimately, the application of moist heat alters gelatin's physical properties, enabling it to function effectively as a gelling agent in various culinary applications.

Why does the gelatin turn pink after a hour?

The gelatin turns pink after an hour due to the interaction between the gelatin and certain ingredients, often found in flavored gelatin mixes or fruit juices, such as anthocyanins from berries or other natural colorants. These compounds can react with the proteins in gelatin, leading to a color change. Additionally, if the gelatin is exposed to heat or acidity, it can undergo chemical changes that may also contribute to the pink hue.
