I tried these turmeric gummies, and have some questions before I try again. Link to recipe in comments. recipes

I was looking into these as a way to gain the anti-inflammatory benefit of turmeric. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients 3 ½ cups water

1 t ground turmeric

6 T maple syrup

8 T unflavored gelatin powder

Pinch of ground pepper

Instructions

In a large pot, combine the water, ground turmeric, and maple syrup. Heat on medium high for about 5 minutes, making sure to stir well so that the ingredients are well distributed. Remove the pot from the heat, and sprinkle the gelatin powder over the liquid, mixing well to hydrate the gelatin.

Return the pot to the heat, and mix with a wooden spoon until the gelatin is completely dissolved.

Pour the liquid mixture into a deep dish and cover it with plastic wrap. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, until firm.

Once fully chilled, slice into small squares, or preferred shape, and serve.

1) ok so how do I NOT end up with icebergs of gelatin? I tried a "measuring spoon tap" shake but I ended up with essentially pudding skin.

2) the cooling made the turmeric settle. While not a HUGE deal I feel like it led to...

3) these just kinda are bland. Not sweet, not turmeric-y. Just kind of...there. Anything that might jazz it up a skootch?

4) this makes exactly 1 metric ****ton. So, yeah, cut this in half.
