 GELATIN MASS
  Ingredients               Total weight: ~ 14 g    100%
• Powdered gelatin                    2g             14%
  200 Bloom
• Cold water                         12 g            86%
1. Pour the powdered gelatin into a clean container and
   add cold water. Gently stir with a spoon.
2. Place the mixture in the fridge for 10–15 minutes to
   allow the gelatin to swell and bloom. It is ready to use.
3. You can make the gelatin mass in advance and store it
   in the fridge for up to 2 days.
   TIP
   • If you’re using gelatin leaves instead, take the same
      weight as you would with powdered gelatin and
      soak the leaves in cold water (the leaves should be
      fully covered with water).
   • The gelatin leaves should absorb exactly the right
      amount of water they need in 15 minutes. Then
      squeeze them and use immediately.
