To prepare, you will typically dissolve the powder in boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved. Then, you add cold water and stir again. The mixture is then poured into a dish or individual molds and refrigerated until it sets. The setting time can vary depending on the temperature and the size of the container. For a firmer set, less water can be used. For a softer set, more water can be added.
