Raindrop Cake

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a Raindrop Cake? Prepare your food. Take mineral water, but not sparkling water. In general, water from a filter will do, as long as it tastes good. Agar-agar should not be replaced with gelatin. Firstly, gelatin will give the dessert a specific taste; agar does not have it. Secondly, this dessert is specially created for vegans, and agar, unlike gelatin, is of plant origin. Instead of soy flour, I used almond flour.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour water over agar-agar and stir. It is practically insoluble in cold water; for this it must be heated. In this recipe, the agar is not left to swell; this is not critical.

3. STEP 3

   

   Place the saucepan with agar on low heat. Bring it to a boil while stirring.

4. STEP 4

   

   Agar, unlike gelatin, is not afraid of boiling. Boil it for 3-4 minutes. During this time it will completely dissolve. Then turn off the heat and cool the solution slightly. But remember that agar begins to harden already at 40 degrees.

5. STEP 5

   

   Take some round-shaped dishes, then the cake will turn out very similar to a drop. I found a cup with the perfect surface. Pour the mixture into it. For final stabilization, place the cup in the refrigerator. At this stage, you can add berries or fruits to the cake. Don't put them in too hot a solution, but don't wait until it starts to harden.

6. STEP 6

   

   Before serving, fry the flour in a frying pan until golden brown. The dessert is served with flour and sweet maple syrup.
