Almond Jello
Almond Jello is a dessert made by cooking agar agar powder, sugar, almond extract, and almond milk together, then mixing with more almond milk before chilling until set. The gelatinous jelly is cut into cubes and served with mixed canned fruit, combining a mild almond flavor with sweet and fruity accents.
