  2. Wash and disinfect the figs, dry them and cut by halves or quarters, set aside. Choose the best eight leaves of mint.
  3. In individual pans, spray with cooking spray, pour a finger of the gelatin mixture, cool and remove before they set. Accommodate one or two figs to the center of each mold, whereas when desmoids that will be the view of your jelly. Decorate each fig with a sprig of mint.
  4. Add more gelatin to cover the entire surface of the figs. Refrigerate and let almost curdle again, and meanwhile, keep the remaining gelatin at room temperature.

    Delicious recipes guys, again you have surprised me because actually I do not like the flavor of anise, it?s too strong and even the liqueur is some kind of awful to me, but i tasted a delicious dessert made with anise and that made me change my mind, maybe I just need to try new recipes and thanks for that

    It’s good to read that last comment that these actually don’t taste too strongly of anise because the truth is, I don’t really like it that much. The only reason I’m looking up these recipes is because my fiance really likes it, so I thought Iwould make him a special treat, but maybe I might actually like some of these too!
