657 Questions
Do Muslims eat kosher gelatin?
When it comes to meats, Kosher is not synonymous with Halal, so no, we cannot eat Kosher Gelatin.
Gelatin is considered kosher by many Jews regardless of its source of origin. For Muslims, if gelatin is prepared from swine or cows that are not dhabeeha, it is haraam.
Does one sheet of gelatin equal 1 sachet?
Go to the store and find out!
(Just kidding, it's about a teaspoon, sometimes a little more).

Well - Gelatin is found in marshmellows & gelatin comes from the bones of pigs or cows so marshmellows are non-vegetarian foods & if you've ever seen the smores poptarts- they have gelatin as well because of the marshmellow in it.
Where can you get the knox gelatin in UK?
KNOX GELATIN is a brand name for regular gelatin and it can be found in most grocery stores in the same isle as Jell-O or pudding. <<adr>>
Is knox gelatin the same as glycerin?
Yes, gelatin can be made from plants and if it's made from kosher animals it's also kosher. The reason it has a stigma of no Jew will go near it is because it's usually made from pig or a kosher animal that did not get properly slaughtered rendering not-Kosher. It should also be noted that some Rabbi's do consider it any Gelatin kosher for the following reason
According to Jewish law when a product has become "bone dry" it loses it's status as food and can be eaten by a Jew. This is an integral part of making the gelatine however many rabbi's say once it becomes moist it's former status returns while a few say it reatains it permitted status____________---
The above answer does not correctly answer the question asked.
There are kosher certified gelatins, they are made from either fish bones or seaweed. And contrary to what the above answer claims, there's no stigma about purchasing kosher gelatin.
I have not seen a candy cane recipe with gelatin. Candy canes are made out of sugar or corn syrup, colors and flavors.
What kind of Gelatin is in Gummi Bears?
If you look at the ingredients on a package of gummy bears - even organic ones - you'll see expected things like corn or brown rice syrup and sugar. But you'll also see something called gelatin. Seems innocent enough, but its source might surprise you. Gelatin is a yellowish, odorless, and nearly tasteless substance that is made by prolonged boiling of skin, cartilage, and bones from animals. It's made primarily from the stuff meat industries have left over - we're talking about pork skins, horns, and cattle bones. Ugh.
I guess if you're into the philosophy of using the whole animal, you'll be psyched about this. Plus gelatin contains 18 amino acids, so it does offer some nutritional benefits. But if you're vegan, you'll definitely want to skip the chewy candies and your great-aunt's Jell-O mold - it's made with gelatin, too. This animal-derived ingredient can also be found in some vitamins and medications, marshmallows (not Trader Joe's - they're vegan!), cheeses, yogurts, soups, salad dressings, jams and jellies, fruit snacks, and canned hams. If this tidbit of info grosses you out, you'll want to pay closer attention to these products' food labels.
Which brands of yogurt contain gelatin?
No, Stonyfield does not have gelatin in it. I have been a vegetarian for over 15 years, I always check labels. It is safe. Other gelatin free yogurts that come to mind are Chobani Greek yogurt, Silk soy yogurt, Whole Soy yogurt (my favorite soy yogurt, much creamier and tastier than competitors), and there are others but I have forgotten all of them. Always check the labels. Also remember, Kosher gelatin is just as bad as non Kosher gelatin. All gelatin is bad, and comes from animal sources.
When in doubt, email or call the company.
Gelatin, when at its purest, is best measured by weight regardless of it being sheet or powder. Sheets come in a range of "grades" graduating up from bronze to silver, gold and finally titanium or platinum. In high quality professional strength products, the difference is merely the weight of each sheet with bronze usually being around 1 gram and titanium being around 3 grams. Generally speaking, one sachet of gelatin powder weighing 10g will set 500ml of water. Five sheets of "gold" gelatin, which is the most common of the sheet gelatin, will set the same 500ml, so long as both types are of the same high quality.
Can you make gelatin without gelatin mix?
Sure. Just follow the given recipe.
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup shortening
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon clear vanilla extract
2 pounds confectioners' sugar
--------------------------------------…
DIRECTIONS:
In a large bowl, stir together the shortening and corn syrup. Mix in the salt and vanilla flavoring, then gradually mix in the confectioners' sugar until it is a stiff dough. If you are using a stand mixer, use the dough hook attachment. Otherwise, knead by hand. If the dough is sticky, knead in more confectioners' sugar until it is smooth. Store in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
To use, roll out on a clean surface that has been dusted with confectioners' sugar until it is 1/8 inch thick or thinner if you can. Drape over frosted and chilled cakes and smooth the sides down, or cut into strips to make bows and other decorations.
What is confectioners gelatin?
Confectioner's glaze is a clear, all-natural coating used to protect the quality and taste of mostly candy items. It is used to seal the candies from air and moisture.
The confectioners glaze is food-grade, wax-free natural "Lac." Lac is the generic name of the natural resin gathered by the Lac beetle that thrives on various host trees and shrubs in India, Burma, Indochina, and Siam. The Lac beetle converts the sap of the trees into resin. It is very similar to a bee's production of honey and is called "transferred nectar." The Lac resin is collected, crushed, washed, dried, and made into pure food glaze. The Lac beetle is not harmed in any way.
