Edible gelatin is used in cooking when we prepare jellies, jellies, marmalade, ice cream and other confectionery products at home. Gelatin is a natural protein. In ancient cookbooks you can find recipes with gelatin for making jellies. Meat, fish, chicken and mushroom jellies are often mentioned. Moreover, previously they did not distinguish between jellied dishes and jellies. Recipes describe gelatin in these dishes as ham, chicken, veal and mushrooms in jelly. In Russian cuisine, garlic was always used as a seasoning for jellies. Thanks to the addition of garlic, the aroma of the dish was not only enhanced, but also contributed to its preservation. Cattle bones, as well as tanning waste and tendons are used as the main raw materials for the production of gelatin. In Japan, whaling waste containing collagen is used to make gelatin. Gelatin can also be obtained from the scales, skin and swim bladders of fish. Gelatin from this raw material produces a weak jelly. You can dilute gelatin from this raw material and use it only as glue. Gelatin, depending on its purity and quality, is divided into photographic, food and technical.
