Gelatine, also known as Gelatin or fish glue, is transliterated from the English name Gelatin. It is a colloid extracted from animal bones (mostly cattle bones or fish bones), and its main component is protein. Gelatine is divided into flake and powder. The flaky ones are called gelatin tablets or fish film, and the powdery ones are called gelatin powder or fish glue powder.

It is widely used in home baking, and its function is to solidify the ingredients. The food added with gelatin tastes soft and elastic, especially in the production of Mu Si or pudding.

The following is a step-by-step introduction to the usage of gelatin:

1. Preparation materials: gelatin powder, cold water, a large bowl and a small bowl.

2. Put a proper amount of gelatin powder into a small bowl and soak it in cold water.

3. Pour a proper amount of hot water into a large bowl, and then put a small bowl into a large bowl, heat-insulating and stirring to melt the gelatine powder.
