Also referred to as meat jelly or aspic jelly, aspic is a gelatin made with some type of meat stock from chicken or some other protein. Then, it is poured into a mold or cup with other ingredients like vegetables, eggs, seafood, and pieces of meat. Other times, the ingredients are covered after being arranged in a mold.

Why are my jelly eggs not setting?

It is possible that you did not let the gelatin bloom enough or you had too much liquid in your soup mixture. But you do not have to worry. Just reheat it all, let it melt, and stir in a little more powdered gelatin. Mix and cook on low for about two minutes. It does not need to boil. Then, pour your liquid and ingredients into a shell or egg cup and let it chill in the fridge for about an hour. You could also heat up your jelly in the microwave.

How do I empty the eggshells?

The easiest way to do this is by using a large needle or small nail. Just carefully poke a hole in both ends of an egg. Then, use a small knife or scissors to make the hole a little larger on one end. Now, use a long needle or paper clip to stir the inside. This helps break up the yolk. Finally, use your mouth or a bulb syringe to blow the contents through the other end.
