Alvil Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hi all, Where can I buy spirulina powder from, I am going to try and make a batch soon, or would I need to put some in as I want this food mainly for Alto comps, would I even have to put the peas or spinach as well? The recipe says to use a lot of gelatine, how much is a lot as I have never made gelatine before, i think the packet says 125gm of powder makes 500ml of gelatine when it sets?

Phenomena Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hi, You can get it from Supermarkets in the health food section or health food/vitamin stores. HTH, DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anita_ozfish Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hi Alex, Hope things are going well I use 6 teaspoons of gelatine to about 100ml boiling water. Stir briskly and then add that to 500ml of the food mix. Spirulina powder is available from the health food store or you can get tablets and use a pestel and mortar to pulverise.

static Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hi, Has anyone used agar instead of gelatine, so it could be truely vegetarian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungsta Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Hi static, I have used agar before. I added 5-6 teaspoon to about 2 cups of water. That is added to 1500ml of food mixture. I do not have a exact recipe because i always test it by putting a spoonful in the fridge. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
