Osmanthus Jelly

Dinner decisions, handled: Osmanthus Jelly pairs dried osmanthus flowers with agar agar for a 15-minute Chinese snack. It is weeknight cooking that still hits your targets — 0 grams of protein per serving. Naturally vegetarian and vegan, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Dried osmanthus flowers
• 2 tsp Agar agar
• 0.33 cup Rock sugar
• 1 tbsp Goji berries
• 3 cups Water

Steps

1. Steep the osmanthus in hot water 10 minutes, then strain. The tea should smell like apricots and honey.
2. Return the tea to the pot with the rock sugar and agar; simmer 3 minutes until everything dissolves.
3. Pour into molds or a shallow dish and dot with goji berries. Chill 2 hours until set.
4. Unmold or cut into diamonds and serve cold. Floral, shimmering, and barely there — the lightest dessert in this whole collection.
