How do I prepare this kissel powder correctly? — Raspberry kissell powder 150g zdorovje

This is an instant kissel, so you do not need to cook it on the stove like a traditional kissel. The powder dissolves quickly when mixed with hot water, and the potato starch in it forms the smooth, mildly viscous texture kissel is known for.

Practical steps:

• Use hot water — not necessarily boiling. Hot water dissolves the starch quickly and evenly; water that is only lukewarm may leave the drink thin or slightly lumpy.
• Stir while adding the water. This helps the starch spread evenly and avoids clumps.
• Let the drink sit for a minute or two after mixing. Kissel thickens a little as it cools, so the final texture will be slightly softer than right after stirring.
• Adjust the strength to your taste. A little more water gives a thinner drink; a little less gives a thicker one.

The resealable pack makes it easy to measure out just the portion you want, so you can prepare a single cup without using the whole pack. If very hot drinks or acidic berry products do not suit you, start with a milder strength and see what feels right.
