Unsweetened Gelatin is added to cold water to allow it to bloom, which means it hydrates and swells before being dissolved. Adding it to hot water directly can cause clumping and prevent even distribution. Blooming in cold water ensures a smoother texture and better incorporation into recipes once heated. This process enhances the gelatin's ability to set properly when combined with other ingredients.
