    "excerpt": "A clear, lightly set lemon tea jelly for four, finished with a single raspberry; a clean, grown-up end to a meal.",
    "content_text": "A tea jelly is one of those quietly grown-up puddings that looks far more involved than it actually is. You brew the lemon tea strong, sweeten it, set it with a few sheets of gelatine, and let the fridge do all the work. What you get is a clear, trembling jelly with a clean citrus edge, light enough to follow a big meal without anyone groaning.\n\nSource: Teas.co.uk.

Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/recipes/cocktails/lemon-tea-jelly/It sets in around four hours, so make it in the afternoon and forget about it until pudding. A single raspberry on each is the only dressing it needs.",
