Goji (Rework) Spread

You know, if you need to integrate a fruit or other ingredient into a jelly, there aren’t any laws on the books regulating your behavior. That being said, it is 100% plausible that you can just take an already prepared jelly, and integrate your desired ingredients. If you are a purist, you can go ahead and develop scratch versions, but if it just a matter of integrating an herb or fruit that doesn’t make a very good “stand alone” jelly, then it may be your best bet. For instance, dried goji berries can have a tendency to be a little bitter on their own, but are actually not too shabby when pureed and integrated into a strawberry or watermelon jelly.

As long as the jelly volume is enough to well cover the fruit volume, you’re pretty much in good shape. But, depending on whether you choose to crush, puree, or leave it whole you might change your name up. For simple herb infusions, you might have luck just making a decoction in a small amount of boiling water and straining it into the melted jelly before jarring it up.
