Question:

What is the equivalent of unflavored gelatin for 1 4-serving package of Jello?

I would like to modify a recipe for cucumber cream cheese mold which uses 2 4-serving packages of lime jello. I would like to use unflavored gelatine instead as the lime jello makes the cucumber salad mold toooo sweet.


Answers:
Powdered unflavored gelatin comes in 1/4 ounce packages. (Usually four to a box)

Gelatin is always used in a ratio to liquids in the recipe: usually 1/4 ounce of powdered gelatin is needed to set 16 ounces (2 cups) of liquid.

Therefore you would use 2 packages of the unflavored gelatin to the four cups of water called for in the flavored Jell-O

Enjoy! ~-~

Each pouch of Jello is 3 ounces. Usually there are two pouches in each 4 serving package for a total of 6 ounces. This is the equivelant of .75 US cups.
