Firm masses = 2 leaves, lighter binding (e.g. jello) = 1 leaf. Allow the food to gel in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours after preparation.
Warm dishes:
Add the agar agar directly to the liquid and bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Now let it boil for about 2 minutes until the agar agar has completely dissolved.
Cold dishes:
Add the agar agar to 100 ml of liquid and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Let it boil for at least 1 minute until the agar agar is completely dissolved. Let it cool slightly and gradually add 400 ml of a cold ingredient, stirring thoroughly.
