The document provides instructions for how to prepare gelatine. It states that gelatine should always be sprinkled onto cold water, not the other way around. As a general rule, 4 teaspoons of powdered gelatine or 4 gelatine leaves will set 600ml of liquid. The instructions say to leave the gelatine to soak in a small bowl for 10 minutes until swollen, then allow it to set without boiling it, as boiling will cause it to lose its setting properties. Serve and enjoy.

george nelson was moved to experiment by a
wish to improve on the centuries -old practice
adopted by housewives for making jellies
as a culinary delicacy. i aim to experiment
and push the boundaries of knitwear, and
silhouette using new and technology driven
techniques and fabrications.
do not boil gelatine or it will lose its
setting point.
