Apple Pomegranate Kanten

Vegan jello ! and gluten free too.

Kanten (also known as agar agar) is a freeze-dried seaweed available in powder, flakes and bars. It is commonly used in Japan to make gelatin-like sweets with fruits and beans. Completely flavorless, it is full of fiber and minerals, and is believed to help cleanse toxins out of the body.

2 cups apple juice
1 cup pomegranate juice
2 tablespoons kantan flakes
pomegranate seeds
apple slices.

Bring juice and kantan flakes to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, and stir until kanten is dissolved.

Pour into individual molds (such as an ice cube tray) or square dish. Refrigerate until set.

Serve with pomegrante seeds and apple slices.
