Vegetarian Apple Kanten by Shirley Cauchi

Kanten is a delicious, all natural gelatin made with apple juice or any other juice as a base. Try it with nuts, fresh fruits, or even azuki beans with raisins. A few nuts or seeds may be added for a crunchier texture. Kanten is a vegetarian alternative to commercial Jelly that is made with animal products.
Properties of agar-agar: High calcium and iodine – very good for the intestines.
