I have been looking for a substitute for King Arthur's Instant Clear Jel and I'm so glad I found this version by Barry Farms. There's a very decent amount here (much more than KA's) and I like that the sugar and citric acid have been left out, this is just plain ol' clear jel. This product is fantastic for making pies, works so much better than ordinary cornstarch or flour. Simply mix - I like to toss with your fresh fruit and other ingredients and add to your pie crust. This gives a lovely "jam-like" consistency to pie fillings and will firm up the juice if you're using berries or wet fruit so you avoid a soggy crust. There are no instructions but you can find recipes on KA's website for a general idea of how much it takes when you bake a pie. For example, I used 1/4 cup in the last 10 inch apple pie I made, 2-3 TBSP would be appropriate for smaller (or flatter) pies. You may need to experiment a bit with your baking, I like that this Clear Jel doesn't clump or harden like regular cornstarch if you use a bit too much, it mixes very well. It also works very well with low pectin fruit. The price is very reasonable too! Highly recommended!
